Outreach and Communications Director Rugiatu Conteh conducted a presentation about Muslim Women, Spirituality and Contemporary issues at a Fielding Graduate University gathering last week in Alexandria, Virginia. About 30 to 45 students attended the presentation and asked questions relating to Islam, women in the Qur’an and how spirituality is viewed in Islam. It was a positive educational experience for students as they mentioned how they are bombarded with negative images of Muslim Women in mainstream media.
