WANGSA MAJU, 29 September 2025 – Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) was honoured to receive an official visit from Professor Dr. Asyraf Isyraqi bin Jamil, Deputy Rector of Research and Global Networks from Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin (UniSIRAJ). The meeting, held at IDT Centre, aimed to explore potential collaboration in Islamic education, research, and international student development.

The meeting focused on exploring future collaboration between IDT and UNISIRAJ in strengthening Islamic education — making it more accessible, practical, and internationally recognized. Representing IDT were Bro Lim Jooi Soon (President), Bro Naim Ahmad (General Manager), and Ustaz Mohd Abdullah (Education Manager).

A constructive discussion was held between Interactive Dakwah & Tarbiyah (IDT) and Professor Dr. Asyraf to explore potential collaboration in diploma programmes and da’wah initiatives. Both sides exchanged views on strengthening Islamic education through structured academic pathways and community-based engagement. The meeting also highlighted the shared aspiration to develop programmes that combine academic excellence, practical da’wah experience, and international outreach, particularly in empowering Muslim communities worldwide. Both sides also discussed the potential for a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to formalize the partnership and the possibility of official endorsement from UNISIRAJ for IDT programmes.

During the meeting, Prof. Dr. Asyraf Isyraqi emphasized that Islamic education should not remain only at the level of theory. He explained that true learning happens when knowledge is practiced and lived. Students should be able to apply what they learn with sincerity, wisdom, and purpose, becoming individuals who think critically, act with integrity, and contribute positively to the ummah.

From IDT, Bro Lim Jooi Soon shared his vision for a collaboration that brings together ‘ilm (knowledge) and ‘amal (action). He expressed his hope that this partnership will nurture both local and international students to become confident and sincere da’wah leaders who serve their communities wholeheartedly.

Both IDT and UNISIRAJ share the same aspiration to develop a new generation of Muslim scholars and leaders who uphold Islamic values, respond wisely to modern challenges, and bring lasting benefit to the ummah and society.
