Professor Ali to Give Lecture at Boulder JCC
Professor Aun Ali will be giving a lecture entitled "Understanding Sharia Law" at the Boulder JCC on Thursday, September 29 at 7:00 pm.
Sharia, or Islamic Law, is widely misunderstood - yet hotly debated - as a medieval system of governance that does not belong in the modern world. The reality of what Sharia has historically been, however, belies widespread caricatures. CU Religious Studies Professor Ali will explain Sharia, how it is related to Islam, and how it has evolved in modern times.
The lecture is free for students and $12 in advance for non-students at boulderjcc.org.
