Portland Muslim leader gets master’s at Catholic school

SHAFAQNA -According to Chron reported that ” The premise of Abdullah Polovina’s story sounds like the start of a bar joke: A Muslim imam walks into a Catholic universityExcept it’s true. Polovina, who leads a congregation of Bosnian Muslims in Portland, did walk into a Catholic university. And in June, he’ll walk out to “Pomp and Circumstance.” The 41-year-old recently completed a master’s degree at Seattle University‘s School of Theology and Ministry, where he was the first Muslim ever to enroll. “I was looking for a place to be accepted as myself and to be the true face of Islam, though I am not the best follower,” Polovina said.
