VIRTUAL progressive Quran reading group

Come join us for a monthly in-depth discussion and reflection of the Quran. Due to sheltering, we will be meeting VIRTUALLY using Zoom!

The Quran is the central text of Muslim religious tradition and deeply poetic and beautiful. Yet it has been and continues to be used to justify oppression like misogyny and violence. Approaching the text can be difficult, but it's crucial for us to reclaim our heritage. Let's get together to struggle with, connect to, and grow from the Quran while exploring contextualist/progressive approaches to the text. Everyone's welcome - no level of familiarity or knowledge of Arabic required.

I'm thinking we can read from Surah Hud 11:84-95 on the story of Madyan and its implications for economic justice. See you then!
