About us
The Islamic Literary Society was founded in 2019 with the aim of promoting, fostering and developing a heightened appreciation of authors and literary works of classical and contemporary scholarship.
This is accomplished by way of readings, book launches, talks by published authors and other speakers, critical reviews, events, online discussion and membership meetings.
The aim is to encourage the revival of Islamic readership in our day to day lives and to increase literary awareness among ILS members and the general public.
