Dear Young Researchers
Contemporary Islamic Thought refers to the effort to examine the universal problems of the modern world and interpret Islamic practices in accordance with the fundamental references of the Islamic religion. In the process of reinterpreting traditional Islamic understanding in the context of modern thoughts, new scientific perspectives, political models, and rights, Muslim thinkers have sought to preserve the fundamental principles and values of the religion. While doing so, they have also endeavored to propose new solutions for social, political, and cultural challenges, adapting to the changing conditions of the modern world. These thinkers have explored the possibility of building a more livable world, taking into consideration existing crises.
We believe that the unique and diverse perspectives and proposed solutions of contemporary Muslim thinkers on global issues facing humanity are crucial for our future. In light of this importance, we have determined the main theme of the seventh Bilhikem Student Symposium, which has become a tradition, as “Contemporary Islamic Thought: Individuals, Issues, and Proposals.”
Having successfully completed the sixth Bilhikem Student Symposium, which brings together young researchers to present their academic efforts, we have immortalized the presentations through publication. Our social sciences-oriented symposiums have taken on a thematic format since last year and have gained an international dimension.
This year, with the contributions of the Oranje Instituut in the Netherlands, we aim to make the event more inclusive. We hope to share visions and forecasts regarding how Contemporary Islamic Thought can shape the future during the symposium. In this context, we express our great honor in welcoming you, esteemed young researchers, to our symposium to present the views and proposals of various thinkers that can be considered within this framework.
