World civilizations are always in a changing state all the times. This book analyzes the success story of Western civilization that influences the world today and observes how other civilizations have successfully absorbed many good elements from it. Among the successful civilizations are those of Japanese, Jews, and Chinese. Western civilization is in the state of relative decline compared with other civilizations today. Thus, it is now looking at the rise of Chinese and Islamic civilizations with extraordinary attention. Islamic civilization started in the seventh century AD with the messenger status of Prophet Muhammad. This book analyzes the current scenario of Islamic civilizationwhy it was very successful in the past and how to rebuild it once again in a new form. Quran and Sunnah must be retained, but the knowledge about them must be reviewed and updated. All that are good from other civilizations constitute the wisdom that must be shared. Malay civilization has the potential of leading Islamic civilization of the future. Starting with Malaysia and Brunei, Malay civilization can embrace Nusantara, and finally, the Islamic world and ASEAN.

Studies in Islamic Civilization draws upon the works of Western scholars to make the case that without the tremendous contribution of the Muslim world there would have been no Renaissance in Europe. For almost a thousand years Islam was arguably one of the leading civilizations of the world spanning a geographic area greater than any other. It eliminated social distinctions between classes and races, made clear that people should enjoy the bounties of the earth provided they did not ignore morals and ethics, and rescued knowledge that would have been lost, if not forever, then at least for centuries. The genius of its scholars triggered the intellectual tradition of Europe and for over seven hundred years its language, Arabic, was the international language of science. Strange then that its legacy lies largely ignored and buried in time. In the words of Aldous Huxley, “Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. By simply not mentioning certain subjects... propagandists have influenced opinion much more effectively than they could have by the most eloquent denunciations.” Studies in Islamic Civilization is a compelling attempt to redress this wrong and restore the historical truths of a “golden age” that ushered in the Islamic renaissance, and as a by-product that of the West. In doing so it gives a bird’s eye view of the achievements of a culture that at its height was considered the model of human progress and development.

Islam as a religion is central to the lives of over a billion people, but its outer expression as a distinctive civilization has been undergoing a monumental crisis. Buffeted by powerful adverse currents, Islamic civilization today is a shadow of its former self. The most disturbing and possibly fatal of these currents--the imperial expansion of the West into Muslim lands and the blast of modernity that accompanied it--are now compounded by a third giant wave, globalization. These forces have increasingly tested Islam and Islamic civilization for validity, adaptability, and the ability to hold on to the loyalty of Muslims, says Ali A. Allawi in his provocative new book. While the faith has proved resilient in the face of these challenges, other aspects of Islamic civilization have atrophied or died, Allawi contends, and Islamic civilization is now undergoing its last crisis. The book explores how Islamic civilization began to unravel under colonial rule, as its institutions, laws, and economies were often replaced by inadequate modern equivalents. Allawi also examines the backlash expressed through the increasing religiosity of Muslim societies and the spectacular rise of political Islam and its terrorist offshoots. Assessing the status of each of the building blocks of Islamic civilization, the author concludes that Islamic civilization cannot survive without the vital spirituality that underpinned it in the past. He identifies a key set of principles for moving forward, principles that will surprise some and anger others, yet clearly must be considered.

The classic study of post-Cold War international relations, more relevant than ever in today’s geopolitical climate—with a foreword by Zbigniew Brzezinski. Since its initial publication in 1996, The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order has become one of the most influential books ever written about foreign affairs. Samuel Huntington explains how clashes between civilizations pose the greatest threat to world peace, but also how an international order based on civilizations is the best safeguard against war. The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order explains how the population explosion in Muslim countries and the economic rise of East Asia have changed global politics. These developments challenge Western dominance, promote opposition to supposedly “universal” Western ideals, and intensify inter-civilization conflict over such issues as nuclear proliferation, immigration, human rights, and democracy. In his incisive analysis, Huntington offers a strategy for the West to preserve its unique culture and emphasizes the need for people everywhere to learn to coexist in a complex, multipolar, multi-civilizational world.

Islamic civilization and its achievements are a significant link and era during middle ages that had been intentionally or un-intentionally erased from common man's history. Now many western historians are reopening that chapter and are acknowledging the great contributions Islam and Muslims made in every field of life. Building on achievements of previous civilizations, research done during Muslim era (700 - 1500 CE) lead to the improvement and understanding in various fields of science, art and culture and not only benefited mankind but also formed the basis of modern research and European Renaissance. This account of various developments is aimed to provide the missing link between the middle ages and modern times. It provides a dynamic picture to not only Muslim generations but to generations of every faith and nation. It also highlights the fact that when achievements and potentials of different nations and cultures are put together and worked on, the knowledge becomes fruitful and generations make progress with it.

Mawdudi argues that the true understanding of Islamic civilization is possible only by having access to the soul of that civilization and its underlying fundamental principles – belief in God, the angels, the Prophets, the Revealed Books and the Last Day – rather than to its manifestations in knowledge, literature, fine arts, social life or its system of governance.
