Talk on Islam May 2

The Walpole Peace and Justice Group is sponsoring a talk on Islam by Hafiz Muhammad Masood on Tuesday, May 2nd at the Walpole Public Library. This talk is part of the Walpole Peace and Justice Group’s monthly speaker series and is very timely given the current Middle East situation. The conflicts that are taking place in the Middle East have resulted in misinformation and even demonization of Islam by some in the media. Mr. Masood is the Imam at the Islamic Center of New England in Sharon. He is on the faculty at the Islamic Academy of New England in Mansfield. He is also an assistant professor of Economic Doctrines of Islam at Islamabad University in Islamabad, Pakistan. He earned his Masters in Islamic Theology at Islamic University in Pakistan. Mr. Masood has inculcated and memorized the entire Quran. The talk will be at 7:30 PM and is open to the public.
