An upcoming Inside Islam radio show at the end of February will focus on the Qur’an. Professor Anna M. Gade , author of The Qur’an: An Introduction, will join the program to shed light on the text that many do not understand. Some like Geert Wilder have gone so far as to compare it to Hitler’s Mein Kampf and others like Terry Jones called for people to burn copies of the Qur’an.
Professor Gade was part of an earlier program on the art of reciting the Qur’an. In this program, she will talk with Jean about the content of the Qur’an so that listeners have a better idea about the complexity of the text, its moral message, and its role in the lives of Muslims worldwide.
