A center for Islamic scholarship — publishing research, translating classical texts, and hosting visiting scholars for the benefit of the wider community.
The Falaq Foundation Islamic Research Center supports scholarship that serves our communities directly — from translated texts to research on questions our own religious affairs team is asked every day.
Much of classical Islamic scholarship remains inaccessible to Bengali-speaking communities simply because it has never been translated.
By funding translation, original research, and visiting scholars, we make this knowledge available locally — grounded in our own communities' questions and context.
Working with the Research Center gave my translation work an audience it never would have reached on its own.
Contributions to this fund support translation projects, research grants, and scholar visits — see the donation panel to contribute.
