The Importance Of Ibn Khaldun In Islam
1,766 words
In the modern world Islam is seen as many things,
but rarely is it viewed as a source of inspiration
and enlightenment. Though it is a force of
enlightenment and it is not only verses of the
Quran that testify to that fact, but also the
great body of scholarship produced during the
middle Ages. While Europe was in the midst of
darkness, it was the Muslims, spurred on by the
light of their new Deen who picked up the torch of
scholarship and science. It was the Muslims who

Part Of Life Rest Of The World

Prejudice is an irremovable aspect of human life
that can be caused by almost any kind of
experience because it is spawned by the very
freedom of thought that mankind covets above all
else. Prejudice is spawned by the things we are
taught, the learning experiences we have, and the
choices we make. Prejudice is also spawned by such
things as the races we are born into, and among
many other reasons, our religious affiliation.

civilizations and time periods. Historians have
attempted to discover universal constants of human
nature, a bond that forms from continent to
continent and human being to human being. Are
there constant qualities that people posses and
reflect in all civilizations? It is extremely
difficult to make generalizations about centuries
of modern history. To say that something is true
of all of history...
