Using trademark humor, Enchassi explores the story of Abraham and his centrality to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. “If you’re Jewish or you’re Christian,” says Enchassi, “please meet me — your Muslim brother. I am your brother from a different mother.” Enchassi goes on to emphasize Abraham’s role as the father of nations and as one who submitted to God’s will.
