The Weakness of the Islamic Civilization: The Causes and its Solution

Abstract

World history has portrayed the splendour of Muslims in controlling the world during the hey-day of Islamic rule and the expansion of its empire. The Muslims have carved a remarkable point in history through the development of numerous fields of knowledge and skills, especially in education, medicine, physics or astronomy, social science, culture, economy, administration and governance. However, due to internal problems and oversight of Muslims themselves, the efforts to glorify the world’s civilization was curtailed. In an era of information technology and other modern surroundings, the Muslims need to recover the splendour of the ummah amongst the world civilization. Meanwhile, pertaining to religious affairs, the Muslims must build a firm basis so that the world would respect and make Islamic civilization the pillar of world civilization. Even though it is an idealistic hope, it must be realised slowly and in stages according to the suitability of time, society and place. Hence, this article will try to identify the source of weakness in Muslims that hinders them from controlling world civilizations and put forth suggestions of how to reclaim the splendour of the ummah in order to stay at the pinnacle of world civilization.
