Confluence of Faiths.
A devout Muslim who is the only Hebrew teacher at a University in India.
He has prayed in synagogues and observed the Sabbath and enjoyed crispy falafel on the streets of Jerusalem. A map of Israel hangs in his study where Yasser Arafat shares space with David Ben-Gurion. And he doesn't mind if his young daughter greets him with "Shalom' instead of 'Assalam Alai-kum'.
Meet Dr Khurshid Imam, a devout Muslim and the only teacher of Hebrew at a University in India.
A perfect example of confluence of Faiths. The city of Kolkata boasts of a unique place where you have a Protestant Church, a Scottish Church, a Portugese Church, an Armenian Church, a mosque, a Parsi fire temple and Jewish synagogues. All within a radius of 2 kms.
