Professor Emeritus Tan Sri Dr. Mohd. Kamal Hassan was born in Pasir Mas, Kelantan in 1942. As a youth, he attended Sultan Ismail School and College (1950-1960) in Kota Bharu and Victoria Institution (1061-1962) in Kuala Lumpur. He obtained a B.A. (Hons) First Class (Islamic Studies) from Universiti Malaya (U.M., 1965), and later attained his M.A. (1970), M.Phil. (1972) and PhD (1976) degrees from Columbia University, New York, specialising in Contemporary Islamic Thought in Southeast Asia. He began his academic career as a tutor at his alma mater (U.M. in 1966-1968, and Columbia University in 1970-1971). He joined the National University of Malaysia (UKM) as a lecturer in 1976, was the Head of the Department of Usuluddin and Philosophy in 1979 and promoted as Associate Professor in 1980. In 1982, Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed assigned him to write the concept paper and rationale for the establishment of the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). He began his career at IIUM in 1983 as Shaikh al-Kulliyyah<\/em> at the Centre for Fundamental Knowledge, and was appointed as Professor in IIUM on July 1st<\/sup> 1983. He was the founding Dean of the Kulliyyah<\/em> of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences (KIRKHS), IIUM (1989-1990), and served as the third Rector of IIUM from 1999 to 2006.During Professor Kamal\u2019s decades of service at IIUM, he accumulated a very long list of national and international recognitions, awards, professional appointments and academic positions. For example, he was the First Holder of Malaysia Chair of Islam in Southeast Asia and Visiting Professor, at the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, Georgetown   University, U.S.A., (1997-1998); the First Holder of Chair of Ibn Khaldun, IIUM (2006 \u20132008), and was Eminent Visiting Professor at Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin Centre of Islamic Studies, University of Brunei Darussalam (2013-2017). In 2010, the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia conferred upon Professor Kamal the title \u201c<\/span>Profesor Ulung<\/em>\u201d. <\/span>Profesor Ulung<\/em> (Distinguished Professors) in Malaysia are state-owned icons, as their contributions transcend the institutions they represent. The title is the highest honour conferred upon outstanding senior professors in Malaysia in acknowledgement and appreciation of their contributions to the nation. To date, only five professors have been conferred with this very rare and distinguished title. Professor Kamal served as Distinguished Professor at the International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilisation (STAC), IIUM from 2011 to 2017, when he retired, after more than 50 years (35 years at IIUM) of sterling service to Malaysian education.<\/span>In 2017, Professor Kamal was again honoured by the Ministry of Higher Education with the title \u201c<\/span>Tokoh Anugerah Akademik Negara<\/em>\u201d (National Academic Figure). To date, he is the only academic that has received both recognitions, which are the highest academic accolades awarded by the Ministry of Education for outstanding academics in Malaysia. In 2018 IIUM conferred him the title Professor Emeritus. He is currently a volunteer consultant for <\/span>Institut Latihan Islam Malaysia<\/em> (<\/span>ILIM<\/em>) (the Institute of Islamic Trainings Malaysia) and the new Chairman for <\/span>Lembaga Penasihat Penyelarasan Pelajaran dan Pendidikan Agama Islam <\/em>(<\/span>LEPAI<\/em>) (Islamic Religious Education Coordination and Advisory Board). The latest are among his many post-retirement involvements; all on pro-bono. He is also currently the Honorary Advisor for the Centre for Islamisation (CENTRIS), IIUM.<\/span>The foci of his writings are mainly philosophy and contemporary Islamic thought, contemporary issues, religion, society, spirituality, ethics and morality and Islamic education. The areas of his interest are (i) Integrated and Holistic Education, (ii) Islamicisation of Human Knowledge and Institutions, and (iii) The Moral and Spiritual Development and Education of Human Beings from the Islamic Perspective. Some of his latest works include <\/span>Voice of Islamic moderation from the Malay World <\/em>(2011);  <\/span>The Heart of the Problems is The Problem of the Heart: An Islamic Spiritual Perspective of Contemporary Civilisational Crises<\/em> (2015); <\/span>\u201c<\/em>The Discourse of Islamic Worldview:  A Conceptual Analysis<\/span>\u201d <\/em>(2017); <\/span>Salam Kasih <\/em>(2017); <\/span>Natural Science From The Worldview of The Qur’an: An Introduction<\/em> (2018) in three volumes for Islamic secondary schools; and \u201cAn Islamic University in the Malaysian Context:  Pursuing the Mission of Desecularisation, Integration and Islamicisation of Human Knowledge\u201d (2019).<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Critically, his work and expert commentary has been featured in multiple leading media outlets including the <\/span>New York Times<\/a>, <\/span>USA Today<\/a>, the <\/span>Chicago Tribune<\/a>, <\/span>Washington Post<\/a>, <\/span>National Public Radio<\/a>, BBC, and <\/span>CNN<\/a>.  As a service to the profession, he holds editorial positions for the <\/span>Encyclopedia of Islamic Bioethics<\/a>, the <\/span>American Journal of Bioethics<\/a>, <\/span>BMC Medical Ethics<\/a>, Global Bioethics, the <\/span>International Journal of Islam<\/a>, BETIM Journal of Medical Humanities, and <\/span>TAHFIM Journal of Islam and the Contemporary World<\/a>.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
