The present article describes the dispute settlement system of the Organization of the Islamic Conference through the envisaged creation of the International Islamic Court of Justice. The Court's Statute, adopted in 1987, considers the Islamic Shari'ah or Islamic law as the fundamental law to be applied by the Court for the resolution of international disputes. Therefore, the Court will have a religious character considering a local religious code as the primary applicable law. The International Islamic Court of Justice has not yet been set up. Its creation might have the effect of grouping Islamic states under the same international judicial system, and of causing a strong political impact in respect of the relations with the State of Israel and of the Palestinian question.

The International Conference on Dialogue of Civilizations was held in theheart of London, at the Islamic Centre of England in Maide Vale, October27-28. A group of eminent scholars from several countries convened toparticipate and present their points of view on this quite important and popularsubject: Dialogue of Civilizations!The conference was hosted by the Institute of Islamic Studies of London(11s) and sponsored by Shahid Beheshti University (Iran), AllameTabataba’ee University (Iran), the Institute for Political and InternationalStudies (Iran) and the Islamic College for Advanced Studies (UnitedKingdom). Several participants attended from local colleges and universitiesin and around London. Journalists from different organizations coveredthe event for newspaper and television. The two-day program, whichincluded panel sessions, a play and a music section, was video-recordedand documented. Overall, the conference can certainly be regarded as asuccessful one, although, as in many other fora, there was room forimprovement in few of its parts.Implicit in the title of the project is a rather grand albeit a noble ambition:the reconciliation of civilizations that are on a colision course. In pursuingthis lofty goal, participants came face-to-face with the difficulty of definingthe concept of ‘civilization’ across civilizations. Perhaps it was this difficultythat contributed to the meeting’s success, and helped participants discoverhow definitional problems can be overcome and how, indeed, understandingbetween conflicting entities can be achieved.Most papers in the first panel, titled “Globalization,” started with a ratherrosy picture for possibilities of a dialogue. The second panel reversed thetone, while presenting several definitions of civilization, it questionedwhether ‘modem civilization’ can be called a civilization at all. Some presentationstied the definition of civilization to its primordial religious tradition,thus disqualifying modem civilization as a civilization and characterizingit as anti-civilization. The third panel used Cultural Studies and ...

Muslims’ aspiration to have an international or global Islamic calendar has long been discoursed through various meetings nationally and internationally. In this context, Malaysia has played an imperative role through the “World Conference on International Islamic Calendar” on 29 Rabiul Awal-2 Rabiul Akhir 1412 H/8-10 October 1991 at Science University of Malaysia (USM) Penang. This meeting instigated programs and steps towards the unification of the International Islamic Calendar and also known as the “Penang Declaration of 1991. In 2016/1437, Conference on the Unification of the Islamic Calendar which had been held in Turkey has established the concept of global Islamic calendar. The Principle of the Global Islamic Calendar has an epistemological basis that allows the realization of “One Day One Date for the Whole World”. However, not entire Muslim recognized the Turkey’s 2016/1437 results positively. The tendency of rejection is more influenced by the fiqh aspect. Some Muslim assume that the Turkey’s 2016/1437 decision ignores the “fiqh” the concept of matla’ so which has been applied all this while. Therefore, tahawwul al-fikr of Islamic calender from locality to global base is vital by reviving the understanding of hadiths regarding ru’yah and matla’.

Full textAbstract:
In the post 9/11 era, there is growing interest in the complex relationship between religion, economics, finance, politics, law, and social behavior. This has brought with it a disagreement on how to investigate the impact of religiosity, whether religion affects the economic, political, and social outlook of countries or whether these factors affect religiosity? In other words, should religion be viewed as a dependent or an independent variable? In this paper we ask what we believe to be the precursor question to such linkages, namely, do self-declared Islamic countries, as attested by membership in the OIC (Organization of Islamic Conference), embrace policies that are founded on Islamic teachings? We believe that only once this question is addressed can one begin to estimate how Islam adherence to Islam may affect economic, political and social behavior. In the first part of the paper we present what we believe should be the characteristics and scaffolding of an “Islamic" country. We base our depiction on the Quran, and the life, practices and sayings of the Prophet Mohammad -- the two principal channels that provide Muslims with the road map. In the second part, we develop an index to measure the “Islamicity" of Islamic and non-Islamic countries. This IslamicityIndex (or I2) measures 208 countries adherence to Islamic principles using four sub-indices related to economics, legal and governance, human and political rights, and international relations.

In fact, many panelists during the course of theconference talked about the importance of Said's research to their ownwork.Regular AMSS attendees such as myself would tell you that this conferencewas a tightly organized orchestra of excellent sessions, one after theother. The number of sessions was smaller than usual, and there were fewerparallel sessions, probably because far more academic rigor had been exercisedin selectiong papers than had been the case in previous conferences.A special delight on the first day was the lunch and jumu'ah prayer atthe Bloomington Islamic Center, catered and served by BloomingtonMuslim community volunteers. After these events, the conference beganin earnest. The opening panel, "A Political Philosophical Perspective onIslam and Democracy," featured M. A.

The International Conference on Muslim Minority/Majority Relations held in New York, Rabi' al Awwal 23-25, 1410/0ctober 24 to 26, 1989 brought to the fore some of the little known but significantly major problems faced by the Muslim minority communities in many parts of the world. The magnitude of the problem can be seen from the fact that the Muslim minorities form one-third of the world Muslim population, over 300 million out of an estimated one billion Muslims. The three day conference was divided into different areas of concern. Over 50 papers were presented. Among the topics discussed were: North American Arab Muslims, an Intellectual and Attitudinal Profile of the Muslim Community in North America; Muslim/Non-Muslim Relations in America; Economic Development of Indian Muslims, Issues and Problems; The Turks in Bulgaria; South Africa: The Role of a Muslim Minority in a Situation of Change; The Islamic Minorities in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique; Muslim/Christian Relations in Sudan; Muslim Women in an Alien Society: A Case Study in West Germany; Muslims in Britain: Some Recent Developments; Muslim Minorities and non-Muslim Party Politics in the Netherlands; Muslim Minorities in the Soviet Union, China, Australia, Sri Lanka, Tibet, Philippines, Thailand and other areas.
The first day of the conference was devoted to North America, Asia and Africa. In the session on North America, Dr. Ni'mat Barazangi highlighted the fact that the process of adjustment and integration of Muslims in America had its own challenges. On the one hand, the immigrant Muslims realize the need to maintain their religious and cultural identity, and, on the other, it is not easy, or even practical, to stay away from the mainstream of the majority culture and its impact ...

At this meeting, it was agreed that AwqafSA would be thelocal host in partnership with IRCICA and that the University of Johannesburgwould be the third partner in this important historical venture.The symposium took place between 1-3 September 2006 at theUniversity of Johannesburg. A few months earlier, on 28 June 2006 to beexact, Ebrahim Rasool (premier, Western Cape Province) formally launchedthe symposium at Leeuwenhof, his official residence.
