The conference coincided with the commemoration of 1500 years since the birth of Prophet Muhammad. Its aim was to highlight the Prophet’s life and teachings, dispel misconceptions about Islam, and promote peace, unity, and interfaith understanding.
Three sessions were held in a hybrid format. A total of 85 research papers were presented, with contributions from the United States, Oman, Jammu and Kashmir, Rajasthan, West Bengal, and Maharashtra.
