Humble Beginnings…

Islamic Online University’s Blog was started in 2013 by a handful of dedicated writers who contributed articles related to Islam, Islamic Education, Culture, Current Affairs, Islamic Fiction and History. Soon, the blog grew in size with various talented writers, shuyook of IOU and guest authors chipping in with inspiring and educative articles related to different aspects of Islam and life.

And We Grew…

With the blog receiving a phenomenal response from readers worldwide, we gradually expanded. Presently, Blog IOU has more than 20 writers with the list constantly growing Alhamdulillah.

New Ideas

A team of dedicated and super talented graphic designers took over to give life to each article that was posted. Blog IOU is known to stand out for beautifully designed posters that score high in terms of design, content, quality and visual appeal. Infograghics designed for certain articles are a massive hit amongst the millions of readers worldwide.
