Great World Religions: Islam

...with Professor John L. Esposito, Georgetown University

Review this video!

Did you know there are more than 1.2 billion followers of the religion of Islam? John L. Esposito, the teacher of this course, a university professor and international government and media consultant teaches the groundworks, history, beliefs, and traditions of this historically rich and amusing religion. A complete and comprehensive course for those who aren’t followers as much as for those who are, this series is full of useful information on the past and present times of Islam, and teaches about it as a religion and a way of life. The following will be examined in detail throughout the course: the possible future hold for Islam and the West, Muhammad, Jihad, Muslim ideas on other religions, Islamic civilization’s contributions to art, law, and science, whether the Quran condones terrorism and what it says about God, the role of women in Islam, and whether Islam is compatible with modernization, capitalism, and democracy.
