Najib Bn Tun Abdul Razak to fend off extremism in the religion of Islam. The institute will stand as one of the main platforms to promote moderation and harmony in Islam and to ensure modern Muslims adhere to the real message of Muhammad The Prophet as to spread love and peace throughout the world.

The institute will interact with Muslim professionals, community leaders, scholars, students, non government organisation and the masses to spread the word of peace and moderation as the basis of Islamic teachings. It is also said that the institution is an alternative to combat terrorism and extremism that has been a plague in the Muslim world for so long.^[1]
