Roughly 2.5% of the overall Emory community identify as Muslim according to Emory Spiritual and Religious life. With Emory’s legal and traditional ties with the United Methodist Church, organizations like Emory’s Muslim Student Association (MSA) are imperative for finding community, inclusion, and identity
In this episode, we talk to Ibrahim Jouja (25C) and Ilsa Qureshi (26C) to discuss their experiences as Muslims on campus: from the perceptions of different Muslim sects, prayer spaces and Ramadan to the everyday life of a Muslim student. To shed light and understanding on marginalized communities, we want to include and uplift their voices to be heard through this episode of Within the Margins: The Muslim community at Emory.
