Prominent religious historian and accomplished author, Karen Armstrong, was the keynote speaker at the Ismaili Centre, Burnaby on 25 March 2012, where she delivered a lecture on Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family), the relevance of his life to our present time, and Islamophobia — a clash of ignorance. The visit was part of Armstrong’s “12 Days of Compassion” tour of Greater Vancouver, during which she was awarded Simon Fraser University’s Jack P. Blaney Award for Dialogue in celebration of her innovative contributions to tolerance, understanding and compassion globally.
Excellent speech by Karen Armstrong.
Worth watching the video.
Thank you.
