Description

In this episode of Re-Sight Islam, Qasim hit the road with a live recording from the 2018 Religion News Association National Conference in Columbus, Ohio. Qasim is joined this week by 3 amazing women who exemplify Faith Driven Action.
Qasim's first guest is Morgan Lee, fellow podcaster and editor for Christianity Today Magazine.  Qasim and Morgan take a look at the common ground shared by Muslim and Evangelical Christian outreach and how both can work together in a pluralistic society.  Guest number two is Mira Abou Elezz, a Muslim Prison Pastor who is bucking the societal norms as she works within the walls of American prisons toward the rehabilitation of the criminal justice system and those caught within its clutches.  Qasim's final conversation features Dilshad Ali, a leading disability rights advocate who works within the Muslim community to highlight the needs and struggles of special needs children and their families.
Qasim's conversations with with Morgan, Mira and Dilshad serve as shining examples of why he says "If you don't write your own narrative, someone else will write it for you."
Have a listen, and let's break bread together!

Welcome to Re-Sight Islam, a weekly podcast presented by The Religion News Foundation. I am your host Salaam Bhatti. In this podcast we shed light on a world that politicians, pundits and preachers ignore. Here we take a second look at Islam. A look without the taboos of asking the ‘wrong question,’ but instead a frank dialogue that opens minds and fosters understanding through stories and interviews. So, join me as we have some fun learning about what unites us as we Re-Sight Islam.
