THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ISLAMIC THOUGHT

The International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) is a cultural intellectual foundation. The Institute was established and registered in the United States of America at the beginning of the fifteenth Hijrah century (1401/1981) with the following objectives:

To provide a comprehensive Islamic outlook through elucidating the principles of Islam and relating them to relevant issues of contemporary thought.
To regain the intellectual, cultural, and civilizational identity of the ummah through the Islamization of the humanities and social sciences.
To rectify the methodology of contemporary Islamic thought in order to enable it to resume its contribution to the progress of human civilization and give it meaning and direction in line with the values and objectives of Islam.

The Institute seeks to achieve its objectives by:

Holding specialized academic conferences and seminars
Supporting and selectively publishing works of scholars and researchers in universities and academic research centers in the Muslim world and the West.
Directing higher university studies toward furthering work on issues of Islamic thought and the Islamization of knowledge.

The Institute has a number of overseas offices and academic advisors for the purpose of coordinating and promoting its various activities. The Institute has also entered into joint academic agreements with several universities and research centers.
