Religious Freedom in Islam
The Center for Islam and Religious Freedom (CIRF) works at the intersection of Islam and religious freedom through research, education, media production, and advocacy. It conducts research that focuses on religious freedom perspectives rooted in the traditions of Islam, as well as modern domestic and international law relevant to the intersection of Islam and religious freedom. Through this research, CIRF is developing religious freedom courses, initially offered at the Fairfax Institute in autumn 2016. As part of its media production, CIRF has translated religious freedom media by Muslims into over a dozen languages, including Arabic, French, Hausa, and Urdu. It has also developed an online library of professionally-recorded audio versions of many of these translations. In addition to its academic and research-based work, CIRF engages in advocacy as a Muslim voice in support of religious freedom.
