India International Islamic Academic Conference (IIIAC) held on October 8–9 at India Islamic Cultural Centre, New Delhi. Students Islamic Organisation of India hosted the event.
Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) is a dynamic student body working in the country for holistic progress and academic excellence. SIO works hard to prepare Students and Youth for the reconstruction of society in the light of divine guidance. SIO engages in the academic realm with innovative approaches to reframe educational policies. It maintains a wide network of students and research scholars, who are creatively contributing to knowledge production and intellectual capital.
SIO envisages student activism as a necessary component of an individual responsible for society and community. It orients itself to reaching out to every nook and corner of universities and campuses and to take part in various students’ engagements. It believes students should participate in the creative transformation of society and must attempt to put their stamp upon our times. SIO formulates its policies and proposals for multifaceted growth of members through Islamic orientation and guidance. The various involvement of Students Islamic Organisation of India is visible in the current academic spheres. SIO ensures a platform of creative people with insightful vision and tireless mission.
The ongoing creative involvement of the scholarly zeal in Islamic Academic discourses offers solid crystallization of enlightened ideas. Needless to say, triggering such waves spreads the subsequent intellectual current. To stimulate that, SIO has come up with the India International Islamic Academic Conference (IIIAC), which aims to focus the objectives under three main themes: "Islamic Epistemology", " Identity Formation: Nation State, Civil Society and Islam" and "Civilizational Discourses in the Light of Maqasid al-Sharia".
Envisaging a stage for gathering to crack the hard-nut shells of ideas, this conference seeks to encourage the emergence of deep creative centres, which would turn out to be the critical helpers of developing vibrant scholarship. Indeed, such scholarship fills up the lacuna of pragmatic approach to policymaking through developing new methodological tools which would be able to heal the mind-boggling discrimination and spine-chilling atrocities and provide comforting reassurance for installing social justice. It lets our minds open and receptive for knowledge which emphasises the practical implications, ensuring social and economic emancipation, by exploring the present social edifice and order. This conference hopefully will debate it under the higher intents and objectives of Islamic law in the host environment which will subsequently end up in evolving and exploring new discourses and accelerate the academics to inexplicable heights. Inviting global eminent intellectuals and expert researchers, it will include the sessions to spur ideas on the themes from diverse lines of thoughts to share, collaborate and learn.
