In ege recent time
The Contemporary Muslim World State`s Sovereignty has had a bigger impact on
the West than any other Third World movement. This is partly because many of
the countries experiencing it are situated in the strategically important
Middle East and partly because several of these states are rich in oil, a
commodity upon which westeren economics are heavily dependent.
Populer belief in the West tends to associate The
Contemporary Muslim World Sovereignty, sees it as a movement of rigid bent on
harming westeren interest. Yet the Oldest Strong Muslim State of present time
Saudi Arabia, is firmly allied with the West in Afghanistan. Westeren arm and
funds have played a crucial role in bolsheving the Afghan Muslim State in it
war against the Marxist regime in Kabul.
One of the salient
features of Muslim history is that it others many examples of revivalist movements. It is in the nature of any major
religion to revitalize it self periodically. But Islam is special for it is
more than a religion. It constitutes a
complete social system that embraces all
Muslim, all those who have accepted Islam, It is indeed a civilization that applies to all times and places.
Such comprehensive
system sets standards and norms for it followers in every aspect of life being
human, they fail to live up to these stringent, all-pervasive standards. And every so often a extraordinary pious
leader rises and calls for an end to back-sliding.
