October 9, 2021

On the invitation of Department of Minorities Welfare, Government of Bihar, Research Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA Dr. Adil Rasheed, delivered a talk on ‘Misunderstanding the Holy Quran’ at the Mazharul Haque Auditorium in Patna, on 9th of October 2021.

Dr Rasheed’s lecture highlighted how the religion of Islam is misrepresented and the teachings of the Holy Quran often deliberately distorted by violent extremist and terrorist groups to suit their divisive and destructive agenda. Quoting verses from the Holy Quran and Hadeeth literature, I put forward references (as mentioned in the scriptures) regarding Islam’s categorical rejection of indiscriminate violence and acts of terrorism.
