This section covers the core articles of faith (Īmān), namely faith in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and the divine decree (qadr). Other related topics, often found in classical theological works, are also found in this section.

Faith

Sharia - often translated as Islamic law - refers to the divinely ordained path of conduct that governs ritual acts of devotion as well as certain aspects of day-to-day life. This section will provide research on the main areas of Islamic jurisprudence including acts of ritual worship, commercial transactions, family law, and penal laws.

Sharia

Methodology (usul)

Jurisprudence (fiqh)

How can Islamic maxims enrich our social landscapes and help us to answer the pressing political questions of our time? Here you will find content that addresses identity, contemporary ideologies, Islamophobia, social justice, gender and sexuality, race and epistemology – all from an Islamic ethical point of view.

Our papers will explore wisdom and insights from the life of our noble Prophet (s) to the accomplishments of great Muslim scholars and the examples of pious predecessors, showing how this heritage can help address present issues and misunderstandings.
