Show Notes

Dr. Hina Azam provided an overview on ethics in Islam and the textual sources on which it is constructed. Topics included: What are the central moral and ethical principles of Islam? What does Islam say, if anything, about topics like abortion, poverty, sustainability, economy, gender, warfare, and other religions? Are Islamic ethics compatible with liberal democracy, as envisioned in the U.S. Constitution, or do they require Muslims to establish a theocracy?
