The language of this book has been made easy for everyone’s read, especially students. The topics discussed in this book are mainly on the contemporary issues of the Muslim World. As academicians of the Department of Fundamental and Inter-Disciplinary Studies at IIUM, we teach subjects related to Islamic Worldview, Islamic Civilization, Ethics, Creative Thinking and the current state of affairs in the Muslim World. In many places in the book, you will find mention of the Golden Age of the Muslims (750-1258) and the reasons behind the fall of the Islamic Civilization which started with the fall of Baghdad in 1258.

After the colonization of the Muslim lands till today, the Muslim World is lagging behind others in the areas of science, technology and good governance. In order to fix these pressing issues, the Muslim World needs less politicking and more thinking. Besides dwelling on the glorious past of the Muslim Civilization, we have also discussed contemporary issues like the brain drain phenomenon, matters of spirituality, human rights violation, co-existence, an idealism for world peace, the political turmoil in the Middle East that led to the Muslim diasporic community in the West, etc. Lastly, the aim of this humble work is not to create a reef between Muslims and others, but it is a call for coexistence that can create a better world for humanity where people live abiding by the philosophy of loving, caring and sharing.
