International Institute of Islamic Economics is a pioneering institution in the Muslim World dedicated for the cause of Islamic Economics. It was established in August 1983 with the primary objective to endeavour for an Islamic Economic Paradigm and to prepare scholars equipped with appropriately blended knowledge of Shariah injunctions and the mainstream economics.
