CAIR-Philadelphia presented an Introduction to Islam talk at North Penn High School in Lansdale, PA. Presentations took place from first through fourth periods. In total, nearly 200 students at one of the largest public high schools in Montgomery County participated. Since the students had already studied the basics of Islam, such as the 5 pillars, the event exposed students to concepts such as scriptural analysis of Surah Al-Fatiha, the continuity of revelations and prophets among the Abrahamic faiths, being Muslim in America and discussion of contemporary events.
