Islamization Of Knowledge

  Discourse takes place in our everyday life. It encompasses both oral as well as written and therefore, inseparable. However, though it is holistic in nature, the main focuses are highlighted on solidarity, power and politeness. This course encourages us to not only acquire the correct discourse but to be put into a practice.

  As a Muslim, we are obliged to include Islamic environment in our surroundings i.e social, moral, political. Hence, it is to be noted that different context requires different discourse and as a vicegerent of Allah SWT in this world, it is best for us to live life according to the knowledge of the Holy Quran and Prophet Muhammad’s (pbuh) Sunnah.
