About IIIAC
The ongoing creative involvement of 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 on 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 a 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 to 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 academics to inexplicable heights. Inviting global eminent intellectuals and expert researchers, it will include sessions to spur ideas on the themes from diverse lines of thought to share, collaborate and learn.[5]
