KRM engages a wide-ranging nexus of scholars and experts around the world in order to develop a robust and sophisticated theological discourse that is connected to Islamic civilizational heritage and relevant to the Big Questions of our times. KRM strives to contribute to the common good as a hub of collegial scholarly collaboration aimed at constructing signs of hope for our troubled times. It celebrates the intertwined realms of human experience, and aims at renewal, creativity, and responsible engagement between faith and our contemporary times. Combining rootedness with openness, and repair with construction, our research and theological projects are conducive to forming a compassion-driven intellectual architecture for our world. The preservation and continuation of scholarly lineages (asanid) are key to KRM’s activities. KRM’s work and direction is guided and calibrated through intensive consultation with leading Muslim theologians, jurists, and philosophers—both Muslim and non-Muslim.
