The mission of the Journal of Islamic Philosophy is to encourage the academic study of Islamic philosophy.  The Journal provides a unique peer-reviewed forum to scholars, professors, and researchers for the philosophical discussion of topics in Islamic thought.  Classical Islamic philosophy of the past masters will be examined again with a new focus.  The underlying issues regarding the many ethical, metaphysical, existential, and epistemological challenges posed by western philosophy and others will be explored within an Islamic context.  We hope to serve as an impetus toward the renewal of the robust and dynamic spirit of advanced Islamic philosophical discourse in the current era.   Prominent scholars serve on the Editorial Board of the Journal.
