ABOUT US
THE JOURNALISM TEAM
IIUM Journalism Club (JC) was established to promote media literacy and awareness among its members especially on issues pertaining to the Muslim society.
This club is one of the interest-based societies in IIUM that upholds the objectives of the university: promoting Islamization of knowledge.
Media is a medium of communication and information dissemination, connecting people of various backgrounds regardless of religion, geographical boundary, and race. Media is the most effective tool in educating the public.
Therefore, IIUM Journalism Club has organized programs that enhance public awareness about the power of media, especially towards the campus community.
This club also emphasizes on programs that integrate the application of social media with Islam. With the motto “Enhancing Da’wah Through Media”, the club intends to promote alternative means of carrying out da’wah to the ummah in general, and to the IIUM community in particular.
As an interest-based society, IIUM Journalism Club consists of not only students studying Mass Communication but also those from various other kulliyyah at IIUM.
Despite the different backgrounds, we are motivated by the same awareness of the importance of conveying messages through the media. It is our responsibility to introduce Islamic journalism to the campus community and to respond to the prevailing scenes. With the presence of well-exposed media practitioners on Islam, we can achieve responsible journalism within the Muslim society and enable us to counteract the biased reports and prejudiced coverage about Islam.
