Islam Is a Worldview, NOT a Religion | Muslim Apologist Hamza Tzortzis

The goal was to introduce you, the audience, to what and how one thoughtful, controversial, and highly educated Muslim who has devoted his life to Islam thinks about basic issues in Islam…and to pave the way for future conversations. Watch this episode on YouTube and read the accompanying Substack post.
