Abdullah appears on interfaith panel with Yogananda and Rabbi Wise

On December 17, 1928, Abdullah represented Islam on an interfaith panel alongside Swami Yogananda, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, and Dr. Frederick Lynch under the Three-Fold Movement.

Place: St. Bartholomew's Community House, Park Avenue, New York City

Person: Abdullah

A New York Times report of the same discussion (headlined 'Life's Meaning Viewed By Four Great Faiths', published Dec 18, 1928, describing a 'Fellowship of Faith' discussion held the previous night at St. Bartholomew Community House, 109 East Fiftieth Street, presided over by Dr. Robert Norwood) names the Islam speaker as 'G. M. Ahmad-Abdoullah, religions teacher' -- consistent with the name-pivot already recorded in hist_events 730/1007 -- and the Christianity speaker as Dr. Frederick Lynch, secretary of the World Alliance, matching this event's existing description. It quotes Ahmad-Abdoullah directly: 'The Koran is the greatest book teaching brotherly love. Man's duty to God is to love his neighbor as himself. It is useless to seek a master until you see your fellow as yourself... Religion, Christian, Jewish, Mohammedan, is the one true religion, is love.' This report names the Judaism speaker as Dr. Sydney W. Goldstein, assistant rabbi of the Free Synagogue, rather than Rabbi Stephen S. Wise as in this event's existing description; not resolved here.
