"He created you all from a single soul." How does this tenet from Islamic theology change the way we think about our relationships? A faithful Ismaili Muslim, Almas Muscatwalla explains that it helps to diffuse conflict if we see the other as having an equal right to their opinion. And no force. "No mother is going to drag their child to jamatkhana [for local worship], but the parents have the responsibility to engage with their faith intellectually, talk about why they did it, model it for them. What the institution does is give resources to resolve some of the doubts." She talks about the role of reconciliation boards and welfare boards in helping members of congregations. Tune in at minute 42:30 to hear how to treat a son with a tattoo.
