Postdoctoral Fellow, Islamic studies, Sami Al Daghistani!

"La meg ikke søke så meget å bli forstått som å forstå" er en av bønnene i Frans av Assis har gitt oss. I samtalen med Sami forsøker Tor Håkon og forstå mer av Islams historie, arv og kultur. Hvordan oppfatter en professor i Islamske studier begrep som sharia, og hvorfor er den lange filosofiske tradisjonen i Islam så lite kommunisert i vesten? Har du hørt om house of wisdom? Ikke?
