Title: Islam: The Future Civilization

Author: Yusuf Al Qaradawi

Publisher: New Vision

Binding: Paperback 216 pages

Description from the publisher

This book shows that today there are many who claim that Islam is not a viable medium to deal with the needs of modern life. This is indeed a bold assumption often made by writers from both the West and the “secularized” Muslim world. Such people argue that Islam should only be applied within the confines of the mosque and not in society at large. As a result, those Muslims who try to make Islam a complete way of life often find themselves labeled or accused of being terrorists. This book, along with other works, is a call for the renewal of the vitality of Islam in this modern age.
