IIDR was established in August 2000 with the following aims and objectives:

1 To disseminate Islamic knowledge and worldview
2 To research on areas of contemporary relevance
3 To promote a balanced, moderate and comprehensive interpretation of Islam
4 To bridge the gap between youth and scholars, knowledge and activism, traditionalism and modernity, Muslims and the wider society
5 To promote change, progress, development and creativity

In order to fulfil the first and second objective, the IIDR Da'wah series has been launched. This comprises of booklets, audio materials, and video cassettes which will be produced under different series - Islamic Belief Series, Islamic Law Series, Islamic Spirituality Series booklet Islamic Movement Series, Islamic Ideology Series, Islamic History Series, Occasional Papers Series and so forth.

Short intensive courses on Arabic and Islamic Sciences will be organised in order to fulfill the third objective. Courses such as Classical Quranic Arabic (CQA) and the one month residential - Tajdid 2002 are such examples.
