On April 16 and 17, 2010, the University of Illinois Department of Religion will host an international symposium entitled “Islam, Salvation, and the Fate of Others.” The purpose of this symposium is to explore views on salvation in Islamic thought, particularly as it pertains to “Others,” i.e., non-Muslims. The participants of this conference (and book project) are among the most prominent academics engaged in this discourse.

Following the symposium there will be an edited volume available on ‘Islam, Salvation and the fate of others’ .

All lectures are free and open to the public, for more information follow this link.
