High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Qatar Indian Islahi Centre (QIIC) is an organization of Malayalam-speaking, Indian (also known as Keralites) expatriates living in Qatar. Qatar, like other Gulf countries, is home for many Keralites. The Kerala community in the Gulf represents a cross-section of the society of their home state in India, and, although comprising different groups with different religious faiths and ways of life, still shares a common Malayali identity. As the word Islah suggests, the founders of the Qatar Indian Islahi Centre (QIIC) extracted energy from the Islahi Movement in Kerala, the very term Islah means renovation , restore the original or purification. The Islahi Movement in Kerala had three primary duties to perform, correct misconceptions about religious practices among Muslims by teaching them monotheism (Tawheed), urge them to keep away from innovations in religion (Bid'as), and promote social and educational reforms and fight social evils. Fighting extremism in the society is a new challenge taken up by the movement at a later stage.
