International Islamic Propagation Center

International Islamic Propagation Center (IIPC) is an Islamic missionary organization based in Karachi, Pakistan.

It was established in 1987 by its present chairman, Mohammad Shaikh as a Da'wah organization with its main objectives to conduct research and study on the Qur’an and comparative religion, proselytism of Islam, support to converts and giving assistance to the destitute.

The IIPC's initial activities consisted of inviting the common people of Karachi to study the Qur’an independently. With time, the center moved to a more spacious accommodation and the chairman started delivering lectures to larger audiences. Along with its principal activities, IIPC also operates an IPTV channel, IIPC TV.^[1]

Mohammad Shaikh, (born October 6, 1952) is a Pakistani Muslim public speaker, and the founding chairperson of the International Islamic Propagation Center.He is the only man, known for showing & proving that Quran can be understood by Quran itself. The standard for accepting any explanation of any aayat of Quran is nothing but another aayat of the same Quran.This approach to understan quran by quran itself, is unique and almost no such approach is known in recorded human history.His all works/lectures on Quran are genuine. This concept/way/approach to understand Quran is unknown to existing human kind. His series of lectures on various topics, what alquran says about '__topic_________', is very rational and humane and logical. It is the logic of lay man.The understanding of alquran by a lay man. His command in producing quranic verses on numerous daily issues, with clarity & understanding, is peerlees.

He is known for advocating reform of religious belief and practice by reverting to the Qur’an as the only infallible authoritative text for Islam and for delivering public lectures on Qur’anic inflection.^[2] His approach to teaching the Quran is solely based on the aid of its own passages. This approach is in contrast with traditional scholarship which subjects the Qur’an at par, and at times below, numerous other texts in matters of interpretation and exegesis.^[3][4][5]
