Fascinating and beautiful thread. I esp. like how each prophet is associated with a color. #IntroToIslamGU

It was a great semester. Thanks to everyone who followed along and to my awesome students. #IntroToIslamGU
Time flies! We wrapped up my #IntroToIslamGU course this week (well, except for their final research papers...). It was such a pleasure to teach this wonderful group of students—and to learn from them, too. Here's what we've been up to over the last month or so (thread):
Friends at @Georgetown, check out the info for this new and important course: "Catholics & Shia: Discovering Commonalities in Dialogue." Pass this along to those who might be interested! Prof. Naghavi is wonderful. #IntroToIslamGU #CatholicMuslimBridge
Thanks so much to author Laury Silvers @waraqamusa for speaking via Zoom to my #IntroToIslamGU class yesterday. We read her novel, The Lover, which is the first in her series of Sufi mysteries set in Baghdad in the 10th century. My students and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Where do most of the global Muslim population reside? The 1st map here is what you’ll get immediately on Google and Wikipedia and on superficial look, it suggests most Muslims are in Middle East/North Africa. But the 2nd map is more useful & shows where most Muslims reside.
Muslim friends and others, do you have favorite reflection pieces on Hajj and/or Ashura/the Arbaeen walk? Next week, we are doing a session on pilgrimage in #IntroToIslamGU, focusing on the stories of Hajar and Hussein.
Stunning. A great example of numerous motifs we discussed in our Islamic art unit in #IntroToIslamGU… calligraphy, geometric and vegetal patterns, muqarnas.
The Beyhekim Mosque mihrab (prayer niche) comes from Konya. It was smuggled around 1907 first to Britain, then to Russia and finally ‘purchased’ by Germany. Today it’s in the Pergamonmuseum in Berlin.
What a fun week in #IntroToIslamGU. We discussed the first half of @waraqamusa's novel The Lover, which takes place in 10th century Baghdad. We also talked about key theological terms like fitra, rahma, kufr, shukr, iman, tawhid, etc. Glad my students seem to be as nerdy as me 🤓
@Adit_Ac Hi, Your thread is ready to read. Some glimpses into our session on Islamic art in #IntroToIslamGU... https://t.co/CEQm3pBuf9
Have a good day!
Today's #IntroToIslamGU class gave students a small window into the Islamic mystical tradition, or Sufism. We debunked the idea that Sufism is a separate sect of Islam, and talked about the origins and negative consequences of that false notion.
Ahead of class, we read a chapter on Salah in @EdwardECurtisIV's edited volume The Practice of Islam in America, the Shi'a du'a of Kumayl, and another handout I prepped. The students will attend a Friday jumu'ah service, too, and write a reflection paper on it. #IntroToIslamGU
For our class on forms of Islamic prayer, Imam Yahya @HendiImam graciously welcomed our #IntroToIslamGU class to @Georgetown's stunning new mosque/masjid.
I really enjoyed our two week unit on the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in #IntroToIslamGU. This thread covers what we did.
“What I find truly challenging is to communicate, and to understand myself, what Muhammad has meant to Muslims over the centuries.” -@JonathanACBrown
Stay tuned for more from #IntroToIslamGU. We started our unit on the Prophet Muhammad this week, and I'll post about it tomorrow!
Last week in #IntroToIslamGU, we finished up our unit on the Qur’an. We began by looking at some of the ways—other than reading the book—that Muslims engage with the Qur’an.
@ostadjaan Thank you for this! I’ll share the thread and images with my #IntroToIslamGU students. We start our unit on the Prophet this week (!) and will be reading some of your work.
