Ep.102: भारतीय इस्लाम. Indian Islam.

आये दिन ऐसा लगता है सांप्रदायिक मन-मुटाव बढ़ता जा रहा है। हिन्दू-मुसलमान पुलियाबाज़ी सिर्फ बयानबाज़ी रह गयी है। तो इस बार हमने बात की लेखक और सम्पादक ग़ज़ाला वहाब (@ghazalawahab) से जिनकी नयी किताब Born a Muslim भारतीय इस्लाम पर रौशनी डालती है और कई मनघडंत धारणाओं को ख़ारिज करती है।

Tolerance between religions has been a defining value of Indianness. And yet, this sentiment has been shaken in recent years. WhatsApp groups are flooded with forwards spreading blatantly false narratives with an intent to communalize Indian society. So in this episode, we speak with author Ghazala Wahab about her latest book Born a Muslim. Ghazala discusses Indian Islam and busts many myths that have flourished because of declining contact between communities.
