🌍 How do we anchor our faith in a world that never stops moving?

Yesterday, Prof. Mohammed Bello Uthman delivered an eye-opening, intellectually stimulating lecture on The Qur’an & Modernity for the IIIT 18th Monthly Lecture Series.

If you missed it, or want to review his powerful breakdown of how Muslims can navigate globalization without losing their identity, the replay and slides are now available!

💡 Key highlights from the lecture:
• Constants vs. Variables: How the Qur'an uses Thawabit (unalterable core principles) and Mutaghayyarat (flexible guidelines) to remain dynamic and relevant across all centuries.

• The Power of "Iqra": Why the Qur'an treats the human intellect as a gift to be used "in the name of your Lord," contrasting with the secular philosophy that birthed modern Western imperialism.

• Our Forgotten Contributions: Mind-blowing historical facts on how Muslim breakthroughs in optics, math, geography, medicine (al-Zahrawi and Ibn Sina), and university systems laid the foundations of the modern world.

• Our Action Plan: Practical recommendations on curricular reform, moral technology, and non-interest economic models.
