Muslims address domestic violence in Muslim communities
Imam Abdul Khan at a Rockford mosque discusses domestic violence, noting about one in six families in his 200-member congregation have faced abuse. A national workshop of activists convened at Islamic Society of North America offices in Plainfield aims to educate Muslims to counter violence and reinterpret Quranic verses misused to justify abuse. The effort highlights a broader, aging conversation as Muslim leaders push for cultural change and gender equality within the faith community.
