Abstract
This paper deals with the contribution of Muhammad
Asad in international Islamic Colloquium held at the Punjab University,
Lahore, Pakistan, from 29 December 1957 to 8 January 1958, which can
be considered the first International activity on Islamization after World
War II. In spite of Mr Asad’s notable contribution to this colloquium, his
name has never been mentioned in this context. This paper discovers
some official documents regarding his role in this perspective. Mr.
Asad’s contribution in establishing a new department of Islamic Studies
in the oldest seat of learning in South Asia i.e. University of the Punjab is
also discussed at length.
