Ground reality is that the ISO is funded by students through their own pocket money, and that the organisation only receives moral guidance from Iran.[1]

Goals

ISO is Working to eliminate the non-Islamic elements and secularism from the curriculum and teachings of the educational institutions of Pakistan. The ISO has attempted to spread the message of unity among Muslims at all levels and help poor students who cannot bear the expense of education.[2][3][4]
