Channel: Muslim Community Center - MCC East Bay
Date: 2022-02-12

This series compares and contrasts Islamic theology with some of the defining elements of the most common theological trends in the Dharmic faiths of Hinduism and Buddhism, as well as the Abrahamic faiths of Judaism and Christianity. 

Dr. Ataie gives particular attention to systematic presentations of the main themes, concepts, beliefs, and key players of classical Jewish and Christian theologies and how these themes and concepts intersect and diverge from traditional Muslim conceptions of God.
