lecture about Islam

wednesday 19 february 2020 19:30 - 21:30 Hours


Kees Dekkers has already m.m.v. the Council of Churches on Texel held a lecture on Islam. This time, Mr. Dekkers deepens two topics that are in the news almost daily and color the image of Islam. Our first topic is the position of women. Islam is known as a religion that is not very woman-friendly. But what exactly does the Koran say about the position of men and women? What has been the influence of the later tradition? And what do Muslim women say about it themselves? A second topic concerns the jihad, often translated in the West as the holy war. But what exactly is that jihad? Is the western translation correct or not, and what does the Quran say about it? How should we judge the terrorist violence that demands so many victims in the name of Islam? Everyone is welcome to attend the lecture.
