Islam at the CrossroadsThe Other Press, 31 mar 2005 - 105 pagine This book was written as a plea to the Muslims to avoid a blind imitation of Western social forms and values, and to try to preserve instead their Islamic heritage which once upon a time had been responsible for the many-sided historical phenomenon comprised in the term 'Muslim civilisation'. It clarifies something of the tragic confusion nowadays prevailing in the Muslim world. |
