Podcast appearances and mentions of John L Esposito

Whenever a guest appears, the audience is interested in hearing about their personal story or more about the successes of their endeavours. Instead, when the guest uses the first 10–15 minutes of the episode to speak about the timeless lessons she had gained from her youth during the time with her parents, particularly her father, it is no surprise as to the mass amount of love, support, and courage millions of Muslims around the world find through her. Today's guest is Dalia Mogahed, a renowned speaker and researcher related to Muslim communities in the U.S. She also co-authored the book "Who Speaks for Islam? What a Billion Muslims Really Think" with John L. Esposito. The book is based on extensive surveys conducted by Gallup, providing insights into the views of Muslims worldwide. Dalia accentuates humility, as she can express the significance of topics including the hijab, time, and what Islam means to her, using accounts from her own life. The people around you can shape one's life for the better or worse; be kind to everyone, and sacrifice for the sake of goodness. You never know that one or multiple efforts to leave an everlasting impression can accumulate in the success, dream, and vision of a beloved speaker, researcher, author, and mother a generation later.

TTC Great World Religions- Islam - John L. Esposito

This marked the sixth Virtual Coffee Night Series. Needless to say, coffee has had a significant place in our lives for ages.

Prominent speakers from a variety of backgrounds have been and will be part of this series and all together we will have enriched conversations. About the Speaker Dr. John L.
