Though they share similar values, guidelines, and principles, Islam and Judaism have a long, complicated relationship that has led to tension recorded within the Quran that might engender antisemitism. Those who agree argue that certain Quranic verses could be used to justify some people’s hostility towards Jews. Those who disagree say that references to Jews must be understood in their historical and textual contexts and there have been multiple periods of Muslim-Jewish tolerance. Now we debate: Is Islam Antisemitic?
Arguing Yes: Tim Dieppe, Head of Policy at Christian Concern
Arguing No: Reza Aslan, Iranian-American Religion Scholar; Bestselling Author of "Zealot"
Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates
