Contemporary Centres Of Religious Studies

 Unfortunately, the language and style that dominates the religious high schools and Faculties of Theology is almost as if they justify the criticisms and doubts against Islam instead of answering these questions properly. The reason behind this is the orientalist mentality adopted from the West… The result is deviations from the real Islam and opposing the age old tradition of all the best Muslim scholars of history by declaring that we don’t need to follow a Madhhab (school of Islamic jurisprudence) and promoting a modernist understanding which reduces the Qur’an to a mere historical book…

Microbes can grow and spread in places where medicines are manufactured. Institutions that are supposed to produce solutions can become part of the problem. They invite people to make concessions on Islam, to reform it with man-made ideologies.But the reality is Islam is perfect and therefore has no need of anything to support it. In other words, Islam does not need any reinforcement or prothesis from any human system or distorted religion.

Islam which is the only true religion, has extremely wise, useful and accurate guidance and knowledge for the happiness of humanity in this world and the hereafter, in relation to every aspect of this life, from law to morality, from economics to psychology and sociology, from history to art, from family to society.

Islamic scholars have adopted the worldview of Islam, that responds to everything, so much that they have considered, raised and answered even the issues that have not yet been encountered but that may come to mind. (This is called farazi fiqh i.e. hypothetical jurisprudence for hypothetical questions.)

Various beliefs and philosophies were encountered all over the world while Islam spread to wide geographies. Imam Al Ghazali and other scholars,who opposed to their infiltration into Islam, clarified the theological and intellectual basis of Islam in the most brilliant and systematized way.
