On reading the Qur'an : Lesley Hazleton
- 10 years ago
Brought to you by www.PakViewz.com
Lesley Hazleton sat down one day to read the Qur'an. And what she found — as a non-Muslim, a self-identified "tourist" in the Islamic holy book — wasn't what she expected. With serious scholarship and warm humor, Hazleton shares the grace, flexibility and mystery she found, in this myth-debunking talk. (Filmed at TEDxRainier.)
This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxRainier, an independent event. TED editors featured it among our selections on the home page.
