The Islamic Research and Training Institute (IRTI)
was established in 1401H (1981) to help the Bank in
discharging its functions in the fields of research and
training assigned to it by its Articles of Agreements.
IRTI`s objectives are to undertake research and provide training
and information services in member countries and Muslim
communities in non-member countries to help bring their
economic, financial and banking activities into conformity with
Shari`ah and to further accelerate economic development and
enhance cooperation amongst them.
INSANIAH was established fifteen years
ago as an institution of higher learning
specializing in Islamic Religious Knowledge
with links to Al-Azhar University. INSANIAH
has since developed into a full-fledge university awarding its
own degrees at undergraduate and post graduate levels, with
disciplines ranging from multimedia, engineering, medicine,
nursing, economics, business, and accounting, while retaining its
strengths in Islamic religious learning. It has built international
linkages with other academic institutions, such as universities
in Indonesia, Thailand, Yemen, Turkey and Sudan. Its campus
currently boasts a fairly recognizable international student
population. INSANIAH looks forward to the new decade with
hope and aspiration to pave the way for the development of a
university for the benefit of the Ummah.
