Why Attend the National Assembly?

The IMAN Virtual National Assembly is more than a formal meeting—it is a space for:

  • 📊 Reviewing organizational reports and milestones from the past year
  • 🗳️ Participating in important discussions and decision-making
  • 📌 Aligning strategic plans and key initiatives for 2026
  • 🤝 Strengthening collaboration among IMAN chapters nationwide
  • 💚 Reconnecting with fellow Muslim physicians

In a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, unity and collaboration are essential. Through this assembly, we reaffirm our commitment to excellence in medicine, ethical leadership, and compassionate community service.


A Gathering Without Borders

The virtual format allows members from Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao, and even overseas to join seamlessly. Distance is no longer a barrier—every voice matters, and every member plays a role in shaping IMAN’s future.

As Muslim healthcare professionals, we carry not only clinical responsibilities but also a moral and spiritual trust (amanah). This National Assembly is an opportunity to renew our intentions and strengthen our collective impact for the benefit of our communities and the ummah.


Be Part of the Vision for 2026

We encourage all members to register early and mark their calendars. Let us begin the year united in purpose and guided by faith.

Together in faith. United in service. Committed to healing.

We look forward to seeing you virtually on February 15, 2026.

Tips on taking the PSBIM

Assalamualaikum! Residency training in Internal Medicine takes up three years or more of our lives, which mainly involves making rounds, reporting cases, attending RTDs, and research. Taking the Philippine Specialty Board in Internal Medicine (PSBIM), however, requires diligent mastery of the Harrison’s Textbook in Internal Medicine and local Clinical Practice Guidelines, which often can be overlooked by ‘toxic’ duties, fatigued residents, or due to busy clinic schedules of internist graduates.  Reviewing for the specialty board is both challenging and exciting. Challenging, since you would need to memorize and put into heart as many data, algorithms and ‘most commons’ in the textbook. Exciting, since you discover many options on how to review for the exam such as enrolling in an online review course at the convenience of your own home or workplace and learning how to compile a separate copy of all the disease  Algorithms  you will find in the textbook.

Kudos to Dr. Al-Radjid Jamiri!

Surgery entails one of the toughest residency trainings especially in government institutions in the country. Withstanding 5 years of long hours in the operating room almost without sleep, saving a life as an occupation nearly 24/7, serving communities, and living far from your loved ones may be such an exhausting task to many. But Alhamdulillah, this did not tire the spirit of our IMAN Co-Founder and VP Dr. Al-Radjid Jamiri, who already completed his residency training in Surgery at the Philippine General Hospital and even topped the national residency training program in the recently held examinations.  Dr Jamiri has been an active student leader since pre-med days and has helped bring together many muslim students within the institution to come together as a family,including the Islamic Medical Association of the Phils. Without even resting for a month, he will be entering subspecialty training as a Fellow in Colorectal Surgery by January 2013 ,inshaAllah. We wish to co...
