Ep 21: Creating a Multi-faith World
In this exceptional interview with Muslim Faith Leader and public speaker Hurunnessa Fariad we talk about how advocating religious freedom is rooted in the Muslim faith. She and I explore the perfection of God and what happens when we stop basing faith on people (HINT: life becomes simpler).
