The life of Islamic philosophy did not terminate with Ibn Rushd nearly eight hundred years ago, as thought by Western scholarship for several centuries. Rather, its activities continued strongly during the later centuries, particularly in Persia and other eastern lands of Islam, and it was revived in Egypt during the last century.

لا يكاد العرب ــ وربما المسلمون ــ يتوقفون، علي مدي القرون، عن اختراع حوامل يعلقون عليها انقسام عالمهم وتشظيه؛ وبما يعنيه ذلك من أن الأصل في العالم هو الانقسام والتباعد.
وهذا النوع من الانقسام هو أحد نتاجات رؤية للعالم استقرت وغلبت داخل التراث الإسلامي؛ وذلك مع ملاحظة أن تلك الرؤية للعالم تعد من رواسب ومخلفات عالم القبيلة الذي جاء الإسلام، في سعيه إلي بناء عالم جديد، لكي ينفيه ويرفعه، لكنه استمر حياً وفاعلاً في وعي العربي حتي الآن، علي الرغم من غياب القاعدة المادية الحاملة له في الواقع. إن ذلك يعني أن (القبلية) تستمر فاعلة في الوعي الراهن؛ ولو كرؤية محفزة للانقسام والتفكك، وذلك علي الرغم من غياب الحامل الواقعي لتلك الرؤية ( الذي هو القبيلة)

Your pain is not prescribed by your creator, He is the healer thus not giver of misery.
We are victims of others; lay the blame where it belongs.
Mankind is responsible for its environment and culture, the earth was in its purest form when Adam arrived (blessing on our first prophet) Culture created by man for power.
The day we take responsibility for our actions, will be the day God walks through the door smiling

Prior to modern times, the term 'Islamic' (Islami in Arabic) was almost never used to define the provenance, status, or substance of things. There was no such thing as 'Islamic art', 'Islamic economics', or even 'Islamic law.' ... The encounter with the modern West, however, ultimately changed the status of 'Islamic.' Inasmuch as the rise of the West converted the achievements of Darwin, Descartes, and Hegel from mere English, French, or German achievements into explicitly 'Western' ones, it also engendered the need for a parallel convention for demarcating the non-Western 'other.' The Western provenance of the modern neologism 'Islamic' is perhaps best revealed in its tendency to connote geography and ethnicity. 'Islamic', in other words, connotes not simply that which is related to or a product of Islam as a religion but that which relates to a particularly non-European people in a non-European part of the world. In this capacity, it carries both a descriptive and a prescriptive force... For no modern Muslim nor non-Muslim would include the likes of such Arab Christians as Michel Aflaq or San' Allah Ibrahim among the 'thinkers of Islam.' Rather, in Western parlance, the modern 'Islamic' began as an instrument to demarcate the boundary between the west and a particular set of 'others.' In Muslim hands, it would go on to evolve into a full-blown signifier of normative Islam and a tool for delineating the boundary between it and Islam. Its added utility, moreover, as a mechanism for elevating the achievements of Muslims to the level of a civilization rivaling that of Europe rendered it all the more irresistible and gained for it universal acceptance throughout the Muslim world.
