School Motto
The motto of the Islamic College of Brisbane is "Seek Knowledge"
This apothegm was adapted from a famous hadith in which the Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said:
"Seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave".
ICB and the AFIC
In 2015, a long-running dispute between the College and the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils, which owns the land, has resulted in members of the school board and principal being dismissed or resigning. The college has been asked to show-cause that it, "complies with registration and accreditation requirements".
In May 2015 it was reported that Queensland police are investigating a claim made by a former principal that moneys have been removed from school accounts and school loans had been falsifyed, with the possibly up to $1 million involved. A senior officer of the AFIC has been implicated.
In February 2016 it was reported that a federal government audit uncovered that millions of dollars had been improperly passed from school to the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils.
