REL104 Understanding Islamic Faith

This course explores Islam through a lens of Religious Studies. We will engage the sacred sources in Islamic thought from our own perspectives, and try to understand how these have been experienced, interpreted, and understood by Muslims themselves. We will not attempt to define one Islam, but rather explore the diversity with which the life of Muhammad, and the Qur'an have been influencing religious life for the past 1400 some years. Fulfills open, humanities and liberal arts electives.
