Abraham, Joseph, Moses, and many other familiar characters are central in the Koran as well as the Hebrew Bible. In this class, instructors Afroze Mohammed and Stephanie Lowitt will trace the stories about Joseph, or Yusuf, through both scriptures, and you’ll learn how this always fascinating character is pivotal to both Jewish and Muslim traditions.

Afroze Mohammed is an independent management consultant who grew up in Washington, DC and Islamabad, Pakistan and has a strong interest in interfaith understanding. Stephanie Lowit runs her own marketing and communications consulting business, Maestro Marketing.
