On Being Muslim With ICJS Muslim Scholar Zeyneb Sayilgan
A FREE event by the Institute for Islamic, Christian, and Jewish Studies (ICJS)
This Wednesday, June 8, 2022 at Noon-1 p.m. via Zoom
Islam is a religion that nourishes body, heart, mind and soul. The word Islam literally means peace, surrender and submission. A Muslim is one who has made a conscious decision to freely surrender and submit to the one and only God, the creator of every thing and every being.
ICJS Muslim Scholar Zeyneb Sayilgan will explain how Muslims try to embody these ideals in everyday life.
Zeyneb Sayilgan, Ph.D., is the Muslim Scholar at ICJS, where her research centers around Islamic theology and spirituality, Christian-Muslim relations, and the intersection of religion and migration. Her personal experience of growing up in Germany as a child of Kurdish Muslim immigrants from Turkey informs her academic work and engagement in interreligious learning.
She is the host of the On Being Muslim podcast.
