Summary: | Islamic thought is boundless, comprehensive, and inclusive. It is a discourse that interconnects human life with various issues and needs, including individual, social, spiritual, and material, transcending through places and times. Modernity has brought Islamic thought to a level of debate where one side of the coin opposes another while the other attempts to find compatibility. The latter tries to determine whether to find the harmonious aspect from the angle of the Islamic heritage (turath al-Islami) or the argumentative side of modernity. Another method is based on revivalism, where a new heritage is produced through rereading Islamic tradition in the context of modernity. |
