Prophets and Messengers in the Qur’an: The Familiar and the Unfamiliar with Abdul Mackie

Making the Familiar Strange

Join Abdul Mackie, member of American Muslim Institute, for this session of Making the Familiar Strange as he explores the stories of the Islamic prophets and messengers named in the Qur’an–including those shared with Judaism and Christianity.

Making the Familiar Strange is an opportunity for interfaith dialogue that inspires people of different religious and nonreligious backgrounds to read the same text together. Rather than providing answers, creating arguments, or shutting down conversation, Making the Familiar Strange gives attendees an opportunity to investigate and share different perspectives on the same texts.

While not required, the program is best if you have access to the stories, which can be through a physical copy or online copy of a Bible, Tanakh, and/or Quran.

Tri-Faith Initiative events are recorded and archived on our YouTube Channel.
