IDT was founded by Brother Lim Jooi Soon to continue his long-standing mission of spreading the message of Islam since 1995. Raised in a Buddhist household, he also trained in Christian biblical studies in Adelaide, Australia, before embracing Islam. Through his remarkable journey, the founder and CEO of IDT has become one of Malaysia’s leading experts in comparative religion. Established in 2014, IDT was created to strengthen Brother Lim’s dakwah efforts, backed by over 29 years of experience. Initially, the organization focused on guiding reverts and born Muslims seeking to rediscover their faith and grow into better Muslims. Today, IDT’s mission has expanded to delivering a clear and compassionate message of Islam to people from all walks of life—across diverse races, religions, and cultures throughout the ASEAN region. IDT understands the identity struggles often faced by reverts and strives to promote a strong sense of connection by offering personal coaching, mentorship, financial assistance, educational classes, and social gatherings. These efforts have even led to the emergence of new ambassadors of Islam from within the revert community itself.
