This class begins with a basic overview of the religion of Islam. Then you'll dive into the many commonalities and major differences between Islam and Christianity, along with a side by side comparison of verses from the Quran and the Bible. There is time for Q&A and discussion about the two religions.

Join us for a lively discussion about the religion of Islam and the various cultures that practice it. You’ll learn about food, clothing, marriage celebrations, and other traditions from the ethnic groups represented here in Minnesota. You’ll also learn how cultural practices are sometimes misrepresented as “Islamic.” This class will provide a safe space for you to ask any related questions about the religion of Islam and the culture of the people who practice it.

By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When participants sign up at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable Refund Policy Refunds (minus a $5 transaction fee) are given if you call or email at least three business days before a class begins. Full refunds will be given for any class that needs to be canceled by the site.
