islam21c.com has as one of its primary objectives the advancement of knowledge specifically for Muslims in the West. Thus through exploration and the need and interest to further Islamic knowledge, we aim to provide either practical solutions to problems Western Muslims face, or lay the foundations for further research.
This section also includes translations and commentary of texts as they take into account a number of constraints, including context, the rules of grammar of the two languages, conventions, and idioms. In order to further knowledge and explore religious notions, it would be practical to explore scholarly works originally written in Arabic. Thus as a process of research, we aim to translate works which assist the Muslim community in the West.
