The Islamic Principles and Methods of Teaching

Al Ijtihad: The Journal of the Islamization of Knowledge and Contemporary Issues, Vol. 1, No. 1, January 2010.

The book addresses the sensitive topic of Hadith authentication, focusing on the criteria adopted by classical scholars to maintain that concentration on the continuity and accuracy of the chain of narrators, rather than the textual content of Hadith, has led to particular Hadith being included which either contradict other Hadith directly, project the Prophet (S) in an uncharacteristic light, or do not reflect and/or conflict with the teachings of the Qur'an.

IIIT's book Man Between The Two Worldviews: A Qur’anic Perspective in Understanding Self and Understanding the Other has been translated into Tamil. The book is written by Dr. AbdulHamid AbuSulayman and was originally written in Arabic.

Three book by IIIT have been translated recently. Training Guide for Islamic Workers by Dr. Hisham Altalib has been translated into more than 20 languages, Swahili being the latest.  Islamic Methodology by Dr. Fathi Malkawi and The Fundamental Sources of Islamic Methodology by Dr. Ali Jumuah Muhammad have been translated into Azari.
