Imam Ibrahim Kazerooni

And each Wednesday following.
These classes offer a special opportunity to examine the premises of your thinking. Most Jews know very little about the premises of Torah thought. These premises are highlighted when we look at what Islam and the Koran took from the Torah and what they left behind.
In our comparisons of Judaism, Islam and Christianity there is a great deal to learn about ourselves as Jews. These comparisons challenge us to think in new ways. Ignorance about ourselves and others is a luxury we can't afford in the midst of contemporary critical events.
Listen to Menachem's tape of the December 19 class and you will see what I mean.
~ Rabbi Hoffman

Links between the three traditions, such as the scriptural accounts of Abraham, are highlighted along with some profound differences.
