“I feel like one of the things that is central to American life is the religious experience, and I think that the experience of being Muslim in America is as valid and as important a perspective on the religious experience of America as evangelical Christianity or Judaism - whatever it may be.” ThinkingFeelsMayImportantAmericaLife IsReligiousChristianityPerspectiveJudaismEvangelicalAmerican LifeReligious Experience Author:Ayad Akhtar
“I think there is a lot of continuity between the Jewish and the Islamic traditions. We know this historically, though people don't want to talk about that - especially Muslims. There is a common source for both Judaism and Islam, or let's say that Islam finds its source in Judaism. The commonalities of practice and sensibility, ethos and mythos, create a lot of overlap.” PeopleThinkingCommonTraditionIslamIslamicSensibilityJudaismCommonality Author:Ayad Akhtar
