Inter-Faith Event –Austin, Texas

Updated 11 May 2010

On Saturday, 6  March  2010, the Islamic Ahlul Bayt Association (IABA) in Austin, Texas hosted members from Church Without Walls (CWW) for a meeting with Sheikh Ja'far Muhibullah, members of the Executive Committee and other IABA members. 

CWW is made up of members from several non-Catholic denominations who believe in reaching out to different religions and learning about their beliefs. Reverend McDonald of CWW spoke about the oneness of God from a Christian perspective.  Sheikh Ja'far then spoke on the same topic, quoting the Quran and ahadith. A thought provoking Q&A session followed, with questions directed to both the Reverend McDonald and Sheikh Ja'far.

The meeting was adjourned on a friendly and cordial note. The guests and IABA members continued their discussions over lunch, discussing Muslim/Christian history as well as contemporary issues. Commonalities between both faiths were highlighted and acknowledged by the attendees.
