In May 2018, I spoke in Hudson, Wisconsin, about one of the most important questions of our time:
Is Islam simply a religion, or is it also a political, legal, and social system designed to govern every aspect of life?
Drawing from my personal experience growing up in Iran, years of studying Islamic texts, and my journey from Islam to Christianity, this presentation examines the doctrines, structures, and realities that shaped my life.
This speech explores the difference between private faith and public systems of control, the role of sharia, and why understanding these distinctions matters for anyone seeking to understand the modern world.
