Happy New Year from IQSA!

It’s been a banner year for IQSA. In 2015 we launched the Review of Qur’anic Research (RQR) and the Qur’an Seminar online forum and database, enjoyed excellent turnouts at our International Meeting in Yogyakarta and Annual Meeting in Atlanta, and have seen remarkable growth in visitor traffic on our blog. As the year winds to a close we reflect on our association’s achievements with gratitude to our members, contributors, and readers around the world. We also take this time to renew our dedication to providing valuable resources and opportunities for collaboration in Qur’anic studies in 2016.

The work of IQSA wouldn’t be possible without the active support of our members. So start your new year off right by joining or renewing your membership in IQSA! Membership for 2016 consists of three levels: Student/International, Mid-range Faculty/General, Full Professor. The Student/International level is US$25 (USD) for student and international (non-North American residents) scholars.
