The Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research is an independent American research institute and think tank founded in 2016, mainly interested in the advanced study of modernity, Islam and Muslim societies. It works to aggregate complex Islamic topics for audiences outside of the field of Islamic academia. The institute had a revenue of nearly $9 million in 2023 and has $5 million in assets; it spends nearly $1 million per year publishing academic and peer-reviewed research papers.

Yaqeen Institute was founded by American Islamic scholar Omar Suleiman and is based in Irving, Texas. In the past, its published works have covered a variety of topics at the intersection of Islam, including perennialism, international politics, parenting, and historical preservation of Islamic texts. It works to "pioneer Islamic research in cutting-edge, creative formats."

In 2021, Yaqeen Institute launched Yaqeen Curriculum, a researched, trademarked curriculum project for North American Islamic schools. The institute's "scholars, senior fellows [and] staff come from a diverse range of positions within Islamic orthodoxy."
