‘Ask A Muslim’ event scheduled at Centerville Library this week

An “Ask A Muslim” program will be included in the annual meeting of the Centerville-Washington Diversity Council.

Local dermatologist Dr. Saeed Al-bezreh, a scholar in Islam and social justice, will speak about his experience as a Muslim in today’s world and answer questions from the general public during the free event.

The goal of the event is to provide a medium for community members to ask questions about Islam and help dispel myths about the religion.
