Mr. Abdolali Bazargan Lecture Series - Explanation of Dua Arafah
Aug

6:00 PM18:00

Mr. Abdolali Bazargan Lecture Series - Explanation of Dua Arafah

Please join us for a lecture in Farsi by Mr. Abdolali Bazargan on Saturday August 10th. Mr. Bazargan will discuss Imam Hussain’s (PBUH) exquisite dua Arafah, followed by the Arabic recitation of the dua, and congregational prayers, and light dinner

The central theme of Abdolali Bazargan’s lectures is focused on the ethical dimensions emphasized in the Qur’an and traditions (or hadith) of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the Ahl al-Bayat. Mr. Bazargan addresses the history and processes of scriptural interpretation that have often given rise to dubious understandings of the text. He argues that the commitment to equality, liberalism, and pluralism resonates with the spirit of early Islam, when an emerging theology was intrinsically wedded to one of liberty.

Mr. Abdolali Bazargan was born in 1943 in Tehran, Iran. He is the second child of the late Mohandas Mehdi Bazargan, the first Prime Minister of Iran after the Islamic Revolution. He has a Masters in Architecture Design from Shahid Beheshti (Melli) University, Tehran, Iran and has more than 45 years of experience in designing buildings. Mr. Bazargan has spent much of his life devoted to the study and teachings of Quran. He has over 20 publications in social and religious subjects, including Qur’anic research and Islamic teachings.
