The philosophy
underpinning the study of Islamic Studies at the university level is
characterized by a rigorous and multidimensional exploration of the diverse
dimensions of Islamic thought, culture, history, and practice. Informed by a
deep-seated respect for the intellectual and spiritual heritage of Islam, the
discipline seeks to engage faculty and students in a scholarly inquiry that
delves beyond conventional interpretations, fostering critical thinking and
analytical skills. The philosophy underscores a commitment to pluralism and
contextual sensitivity, recognizing the varied manifestations of Islamic
thought across temporal and geographic contexts. Moreover, it emphasizes
interdisciplinary engagement and the cultivation of graduates equipped to navigate
contemporary challenges while upholding Islamic ethical principles. This
philosophy serves as a policy statement, guiding the educational approach that
positions graduates as informed interpreters of Islamic traditions and valuable
contributors to global discourse, interfaith dialogue, and ethical leadership
within a rapidly evolving world.
