This year’s topic: Does religion promote extremism?
On Saturday, Dec. 9, the Baitur Rahman Mosque in Delta will be holding its fourth annual women’s interfaith symposium.
Put on by the Ahmadiyya Women’s Auxiliary, the symposium is one of the mosque’s biggest interfaith events of the year.
“We find it actually more empowering that we are able to conduct and hold an event on such a huge scale, and be responsible for it, without having to get the assistance from men,” said Aisha Naveed, public events coordinator for the Ahmadiyya Women’s Auxiliary.
Featuring discussions by female speakers from a number of faiths, the symposium will tackle the question “does religion promote extremism?” — a topic Naveed said is, “really current, especially with the events that are going on around the world.”
