Hardcover. New. This book is a definite contribution towards understanding the challenge of Islamic renaissance by an international readership all over the world. It presents not only a rational interpretation of Islamic resurgence in the present day world, but it also brings Islam in juxtaposition to other religions with a choice for the reader to determine his course; for Islam is a progressive, dynamic, enlightened, peaceful and forward-moving force, which threatens no one and, on the contrary, welcomes cooperation with all those willing to do so. The fundamentalism of this work vitalized the claim that Islam is the only choice while its orthodoxy leavened the doctrine of this great religion. According to Professor Giuseppe Buricchi of Rome, the author is a “Muslim fundamentalist, a Muslim by birth, and a great Muslim scholar through a life dedicated to studies”. In this study and such other works of his as “Islam the kingdom of Allah,” “Islamic polity in modern times” and “Islam the only choice,” his scholarly approach to the subject reached its culminating point. The author tried to highlight the axiom that Islam reformed is Islam no longer. The logical derivation that ensures will be to regard Islam as the norm by which the world is to be judged : an enterprise which is intricately linked with the drive for and the achievements of the Islamic resurgence. The impact of the call for the revival of Islam is felt all over the world, for Islam is not militant but peaceful and, above all, a definite force for establishing world-wide lasting peace. Islamic renaissance, therefore, has a positive role in promoting the cause of international peace.CHAPTER I: Light of Faith; CHAPTER II: Islamic Renaissance; CHAPTER III: Significance of Legislation; CHAPTER IV: Meaning of Education; CHAPTER V: Institution of Mosque; CHAPTER VI: Muslim Intellectual Life; CHAPTER VII: Status of Women; CHAPTER VIII: Emancipation of Slaves; CHAPTER IX: Treatment of Poverty; CHAPTER X: Institution of Social Welfare; CHAPTER XI: Socio-Economic System; CHAPTER XII: Salvation Through Islam; CHAPTER XIII: Bibliography Printed Pages: 254., Atlantic Publishers & Distributors (P) Ltd, 1989, London: The London Mosque, 1980. 0. "This brief outline of the origin, spirit and teachings of Islam is designed to furnish Western readers with an authentic miniature which it is hoped might urge them to embark upon a deeper and more extended study of this great faith which has in the past suffered much at the hands of hostile Western critics and is today suffering even more at the hands of those who profes to be its followers and exponents."
