Course Description:
This course examines the ways the Qur'an shapes ideas and identities across numerous groups of Muslims. We will explore how the application of the Qur'an shapes the religious practice and moral landscape of Muslims universally as well as how it is utilized to speak to individual identities, including various sectarian groups across time, and contemporary voices, including feminist and queer identities and African American viewpoints. |
