A research institute at the International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) plans to set up a centre for peace reconciliation and reconstruction studies.
The centre, planned by the IIUI’s Islamic Research Institute (IRI), will be set up as part of the varsity’s Paigham—e—Pakistan initiative: a fatwa whereby Political party leaders and religious scholars called for unity and a unanimous narrative to counter terrorism in Pakistan.
The proposal was recommended by academicians, researchers, policymakers, religious leaders, parliamentarians and prominent figures of society in a consultative meeting organised by IRI for a comprehensive plan of action to rebuild an inclusive Islamic society in Pakistan in light of Paigham-e-Pakistan at its Faisal Mosque campus on Thursday. The meeting recommended that a post-graduate diploma course should be jointly offered by IRI, the HEC, and CCI.
