Islamic Studies is an interdisciplinary program that aims at studying the Islamic textual traditions (the Qur’an and Hadith), critically analyzing the Islamic culture and civilization, and exploring the importance of Islamic discourses in the contemporary world. It draws on a variety of fields, including history, religions, politics, societies, economies, philosophy, art and architecture, ethics, human rights, historical area studies of the Islamic world. It provides a wide framework to students for a meaningful understanding of culture and civilization; peace and harmony; co-existence and cooperation; pluralism and toleration; tradition and modern; literature and science; rights and responsibilities. We appreciate and believe in truth, transparency, and accuracy.
