The Risale Academy in collaboration with the Konya Metropolitan Municipality will hold an International symposium on “Said Nursi and Mevlana Jalal al-Din Rumi" in Konya on May 24-26, 2013. One of the major goals of the Symposium, among others, is to situate the places and roles of these two great thinkers in the overall context of the history of Islamic thought and show the relevance and significance of their ideas to our world today. 

We will be very happy if you can participate in the Symposium with a paper on one of the topics listed below or on any other topic concerning various aspects of the thoughts of Nursi and Rumi, comparatively.

I hope that you will accept our kind invitation ...
