Our Technology

AI Platform Grounded in Islamic Knowledge

IDO uses the most comprehensive knowledge graph of Islamic texts and modern policy documents with state-of-the-art AI capable of deep analysis with advanced reasoning.

Islamic Knowledge Graph

Our comprehensive knowledge graph connects the largest and oldest collection of manuscripts produced in the Islamic world with modern policy documents, creating a rich semantic network that powers our AI systems.

  • Qurʾān, Ṣiḥāḥ sittah, and classical Islamic texts
  • Rare manuscript collections from libraries across the world
  • Modern policy white-papers and legal documents
  • Emotional tone & rhetorical device tagging

AI-Powered Analysis

Constitutional and legal analysis grounded in Islamic jurisprudence

Cross-Cultural Understanding

AI that respects and represents diverse Islamic traditions

Sovereign Data Control

Member countries maintain control of sensitive data

Policy Impact Metrics

Our Manifesto

From Concept to Reality

Our roadmap for transforming the Islamic Development Organization from an inspiring concept to a working, AI-empowered institution that has the capacity to resolve long-standing conflicts in Palestine and Kashmir, and restore the glory of the Islamic world.

The Most Comprehensive Knowledge Graph of Islamic Texts and Modern Policy Documents

We begin by constructing a knowledge graph based on the largest and oldest collection of manuscripts, modern policy documents, and a comprehensive diplomatic history of the Islamic world. We will release an AI model that can reason about the knowledge graph and use it to answer questions and provide insights.

Minimal Viable Stack (Months 0-6)

  1. Corpus ingestion – Qurʾān, Ṣiḥāḥ sittah, manuscript collections, modern policy white-papers, and diplomatic history.
  2. Arabic-first LLM – LoRA-tune a strong bilingual base on the graph-augmented corpus; enforce citation-in-every-reply for policy trust.
  3. Youth-friendly front-end – A daily feed of Instagram reels auto-generated by the model.

Early Programs for Youth and Diplomats

AudienceProduct in Year 1Measurable Win
Youth (18-30)IDO Youth Digital Majlis – mobile app where users explore and discuss Islamic philosophy, poetry, and art.100k monthly active debaters; sentiment survey shows ↓ sectarian language.
DiplomatsIDO Conflict Resolution Dashboard – Current status of conflicts such as Palestine and Kashmir, analysis of each party's positions, draft peace proposals, and a question-answer interface connected to the knowledge graph.3 Muslim nations using it to analyze conflicts and draft proposals; time-to-first response drops 50%.

Youth engagement aligns with OIC youth-empowerment mandates and ICYF programs, giving us a ready network of campus clubs.

Consortium & Governance Blueprint (IDO Charter v0)

  1. Potential Founding Members – Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Türkiye, Indonesia, and Pakistan (language diversity + AI budgets).
  2. Governing Council – 3 chambers
    • States (one seat each)
    • Scholars & Civil Society (Sunni, Shīʿa, Ibāḍī, Sufi)
    • Youth Assembly (elected via Digital Majlis)
  3. Trust & Safety Board – cross-sectarian theologians + ML robustness researchers review guardrails.
  4. Funding Mix – 3-year pooled sovereign grant; thereafter: Islamic Development Bank endowment + data-service fees to corporations.
  5. Open-Source Mandate – Core code & ontology under permissive licence; sensitive embeddings stay within members' "sovereign-AI" data centres.

The structure deliberately mirrors early EU stages (coal & steel → common market → political union) to make later expansion politically palatable.

Language Expansion Path (Months 7-24)

PhaseAdd-onKey Task
I – PersianDigitise classical poetry (Ḥāfeẓ, Rūmī) + modern policy docs from Iran/Tajikistan diaspora.Cross-script entity resolution (Arabic vs. Perso-Arabic).
II – TurkishTap Türkiye's National AI Strategy open datasets.Morphological tokeniser integration.
III – UrduLeverage Rekhta corpus + Pakistan's digital libraries.Build Hinglish code-switch adapters for South-Asian youth.

Each roll-out trains a new language adapter while preserving the shared concept space, so multilingual debates converge instead of fragmenting.

Soft-Power & Diplomatic Leverage

  • Unified Narrative Bank – When crises arise (e.g., Quran-burning incidents), the model can instantly surface legal, theological, and historical precedents that support a coordinated diplomatic stance.
  • Evidence-backed White Papers – IDO can supply OIC, Arab League, and ASEAN forums with AI-generated but scholar-verified briefing packs in hours.
  • Youth Track-II Diplomacy – Digital Majlis finals held at alternating member capitals, fostering cross-border networks before future Erasmus-style exchanges.
