The document discusses the concept of Islamization of knowledge. It begins by explaining how Western secular thought has influenced education systems around the world, including in Muslim countries. It then defines knowledge from both secular and Islamic perspectives. The sources of knowledge in Islam are identified as sense experience, reasoning, innate instinct, intuitive knowledge, and revelation. Islamization of knowledge is defined as reconceiving disciplines based on Islamic principles. The failure of the modern Western education system is analyzed and the aims of Islamizing knowledge are outlined as abolishing secular systems and fostering a deeper Islamic worldview.
Taqleed;
An Innovation in Deen or Necessary in Deen
A Critical Study on Ibn Al- Qayyim Al Jawziyyah’s (RA) Treatise on Taqleed
Delivered by Mufti Abdul Waheed
Taqleed – following a specific legal school, has been a topic of extreme controversy. Amongst the leading figures to critically write on this subject extensively was Imam Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah (RA). He proposes the argument that it is necessary for every Muslim to primarily adhere to the scripture, Qur’an and Sunnah. Hence, those who strictly follow a particular legal school are in fact preferring a madhab over scriptures, which is tantamount to those of following their fore fathers, as condemned in the Qur’an. Superficially, it appears to be a valid argument but is it necessarily true that following a legal school results in abandoning or preferring it over scriptures? What is the need of scholars of great calibre adhering to one of the legal schools in the first place? Is it possible for every person to distinguish between authentic and non-authentic Hadeeth? Did the Imams themselves prohibit others of doing Talqeed of them? The whole discussion pivots on the issue of Ijtihad and whether is it necessary to know the evidence of the Imam or not.
Mufti Abdul Waheed will address the following major points;
What is Ijtihad and its Qualification?
Is it possible to always follow authentic Hadeeth?
Is it necessary for a layperson to know the evidences of his Imam?
Why Taqleed became part of the discourse of Usool ul-Fiqh?
Why follow one legal school as opposed to all in general?
Taqleed and ittiba, same thing or not?
A critical analysis on Ibn Qayyim al– Jawziyyah’s (RA) proposed arguments on Taqleed.
And much more….
By the end of the session you shall walk away with the understanding of the following;
The concept of Ijtihad and its applicability.
The legacy of the four Imams
Appreciate the complexity involved in determining what is authentic and what is not.
Why Taqleed of one school became necessary.

Right to Education in Islam PerspectiveFadzliRohami1
Education is very important in Islam, even the first verse of the Qur'an revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, indicates the importance of education in Islam, the verse began with the word "Iqr'a," which is an Arabic command that means "read," and it implies the concepts of "learning," "exploring," and "seeking enlightenment."
"Read! In the Name of your Lord who has created (all that exists). He has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood). Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous. Who has taught (the writing) by the pen. He has taught man that which he knew not. "
(Surah Al Alaq Verse 1-5)

Exploring Islamic Philosophy: Unveiling its Background, Key Concepts, Origina...maryam Rashid
Islamic philosophy, a vibrant and intellectually rich tradition, represents a synthesis of diverse philosophical currents within the Islamic world. Rooted in the Islamic Golden Age, this philosophical discourse emerged as scholars sought to reconcile the tenets of Islamic theology with the wisdom of classical Greek, Persian, and Indian philosophical traditions.
At its core, Islamic philosophy engages with fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, morality, and the divine. The synthesis of reason ('aql) and revelation (naql) is a defining characteristic, emphasizing the compatibility of rational inquiry with Islamic teachings. Scholars within this tradition have explored a wide array of topics, including metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, and theology.
Key concepts in Islamic philosophy include the nature of God, the relationship between faith and reason, the concept of free will, and the pursuit of virtue. Intellectual luminaries like Al-Farabi, Avicenna, and Averroes played pivotal roles in shaping this philosophical tradition, contributing to its development and dissemination.
Islamic philosophy's strengths lie in its encouragement of critical thinking and intellectual exploration. The integration of diverse philosophical traditions provides a comprehensive worldview, allowing scholars to approach complex metaphysical and ethical questions with nuance. The tradition also seeks to harmonize reason and revelation, fostering a holistic understanding of the world.
However, Islamic philosophy faces certain limitations. Tensions between reason and orthodoxy within Islamic scholarship, as well as reservations about the assimilation of external philosophical ideas, pose challenges. Additionally, external factors such as geopolitical dynamics and colonial legacies may impact the extent to which Islamic philosophy can flourish in contemporary contexts.
In summary, Islamic philosophy stands as a testament to the intellectual curiosity and synthesis of diverse traditions within the Islamic world. It continues to be a source of exploration, providing a framework for scholars to engage in profound inquiries that bridge the realms of reason and spirituality.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Introduction
❖ Today secular philosophical thought seized not only the Western education system but also
seized the education system of the entire Muslim world.
❖ The philosophical thought of the Western world based on empiricism, rationalism and
secularism. The philosophers of the Western world denied the divine guidance guessing that
without any attachment of religion they are determined to change the destiny of their lives.
❖ They think that man has rights to fulfill all kinds of desires for the sake of happiness with
certain values such as democracy, equality, human rights, social justice and others.
❖ This speculation distanced them from the guidance of God, as a result, all kinds of rebellious
activities prevailed their thinking as well as the policies of societies and states.

3. Definition of Knowledge (From the secular
perspective)
❖ Knowledge means facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education; the
theoretical or practical understanding of a subject, or awareness or familiarity gained by
experience of a fact or situation (Oxford Dictionaries Language Matters).
❖ Knowledge means understanding of or information about a subject that you get by experience
or study, either known by one person or by people generally. Or Knowledge means the state of
knowing about or being familiar with something (Cambridge Dictionaries Online)
3
4. Definition of Knowledge (From the Islamic
perspective)
❖ In Islam, knowledge comes from Allah’s revelation to His Prophets, and from reasoning and
perception or empiricism. The following verses of the Holy Qur’an show this:
“Read! In the name of your Lord who creates, creates man from a clot (of congealed blood).
Read: and your Lord is the Most Bounteous, Who teaches by the pen, teaches man that which
he knew not”. (Sura Al-alaq, Verse no: 1-5).”
“And Allah has brought you out of the wombs of your mothers while you know nothing. And He
gave you hearing, sight, and hearts that you might give thanks (to Allah)”. (Surah An-nahl,
Verse no: 78).”
4
5. Definition of Knowledge to the Islamic
Scholars
❖ Imam Ghazali said: Information that leads to successful attainment of the true goal of life.
❖ Al-Jurjani said: Attaining the description of something in the mind.
❖ Al Attas says: the arrival of the right meaning and descriptions of a thing into the soul.
❖ Al Raghib al Isfahani : Understanding over something in corresponding with its true nature.
❖ Abd al-Jabbar ibn Ahmad said: Knowledge is the meaning that makes the soul of the learned
feeling contended after having acquired it.
5
6. The sources of knowledge in Islam
❖ There are five sources of knowledge acknowledged in Islam.
1. Sense Experience: observation and experience
2. Reasoning: the action of thinking about something in a logical, sensible way.
3. Innate & Instinct: Instinct is a feeling or ability for doing something which we have from
birth and have not learnt, that is, an innate ability -- the adjective innate means
'inborn/natural. An innate instinct amounts to saying ‘an innate ability/quality’.
4. Intuitive Knowledge: This style has to do with the insight and inspiration that Allah
bestows on the Muslims. It is only those who use their reason and intellect in the right
manner, enlightened and inspired by Allah’s revelation that can have this insight, and
inspiration.
5. Revelation: the Knowledge of God that has been sent down to the prophets.
6
7. What is the Islamization of knowledge ?
❖ Ismail Raji al-Faruqi said: As disciplines, the humanities, the social sciences and the natural
sciences must be reconceived and rebuilt, given a new Islamic base and assigned new purposes
consistent with Islam. Every discipline must be recast so as to embody the principles of Islam in its
strategy, in what it regards as its data, its problems, its objectives, its aspirations.
❖ Dr. Imad al Din Khalil said: Islamization of knowledge means involvement in intellectual pursuits,
by examination, summarization, correlation, and publication, from the perspective of an Islamic
outlook on life, man and the universe.
❖ Abu al Qasim Hajj Hammad said: Islamization of Knowledge is the breaking of the connection
between the scientific achievements of human civilization and the transmutations of postulative
philosophy, so that science may be employed by means of a methodological order which is
religious rather than speculative in nature.
7
8. Continue….
❖ Taha Jabir al’Alwani: IOK is primarily a methodological issue which is prepositioned on the
Identification and articulation of the relationship between revelation and the real-existential.
❖ Prof. Kamal Hasan says: Islamization of Human Knowledge is an alternative paradigm for
pursuing, teaching, organizing, disseminating, utilizing and evaluating contemporary human
knowledge-as distinct from Divinely revealed knowledge-in accordance with the worldview,
fundamental principles, ethical values and norms of Islam.
❖ Naqib al-Attas says: liberation of man first from magical, mythological, animistic, national-
cultural tradition (opposed to Islam), and then from secular control over his reason and language.
❖ Abdul Hamid Abu Sulayman says: The purpose of IOK is to achieve mastery of Islamic thought in
various branches of human knowledge…in order to build a sound contemporary Islamic base for
dynamic action in all spheres of life and civilization.
8
9. Why knowledge is necessary to be Islamized?
They are some reasons which extremely necessitate Islamization of Knowledge, theses are:
1. To build a strong bridge between Islamic and worldly knowledge.
2. To guide the humanity to the pathway of welfare and prosperity as well as their salvation.
3. To bring back the Islamic own worldview to the Muslims.
4. To unite the entire Muslim Ummah under the one education system.
5. To turn the Muslim Ummah to the Islamic world view rescuing from the secular world
view.
6. To awaken and strengthen the spirit of Islam within the Muslim Ummah.
9
10. The aim of Islamization of knowledge
1. To abolish secular education system from the Islamic world.
2. To set up the vision and mission of Islam in the mindset of Muslim Ummah .
3. To produce Ijtehadic and dynamic leadership.
4. To bring empirical and rational approach in the mindset of Muslims
5. To create awareness in the Ummah of the crisis of ideas.
6. To foster a deeper understanding of the nature of the crisis of ideas in contemporary Islamic
thought, its causes, and its solutions.
7. To revive the ideologies of the Ummah, and to invigorate and redevelop its methodology and to
elucidate its viewpoints and intimate relationship with original Islamic goals.
10
11. The concept of Islamization of Knowledge
❖ There have been several phrases used to interpret this concept such as “Islamization of
knowledge” and “Islamization of contemporary or present-day knowledge.”
❖ Naqib al-Attas said: For instance, he consistently emphasizes and uses the phrase “Islamization of
contemporary knowledge” or the “Islamization of present-day knowledge” rather than just
“Islamization of modern knowledge”.
❖ Al-faruqi also used the phrase of “Islamization of modern knowledge for his project although later,
he tended to use the phrase “Islamization of disciplines”.
❖ Prof. Kamal Hasan says: Relevantization of human knowledge.
11
12. The failure of modern Western education
and its causes
❖ Prof. Mumtaz Ali explored aspects of western education system and divided into two stages.
❖ First Stage…..
1. It was an unjust system.
2. It was an irrational system.
3. People were oppressed.
4. The masses wanted to bring about a change in their condition of life.
5. In their quest for a better life, thinking minds started thinking and developing new forms
of philosophical thought.
6. Their sole aim was material development
12
13. Continue….
❖ Second Stage….
1. Man has come into being by chance, though endowed with the faculties of reason and
sense perception.
2. Man himself determines his purpose and direction in life.
3. Man is a rational being and master of his own destiny.
4. Man has the right to the fulfillment of his desires for the sake of happiness with certain
values such as democracy, equality, human rights, social justice and others.
13
14. Conclusion
It is said that education is the back bone of a nation. As long as one person’s backbone is strong and
upright he can do whatever he likes but when his backbone is disabled and sick, he is unfit for his
family as well as for the state. So for reviving the Ummah, its education system must be reshuffled
and developed, otherwise, the Ummah will never be able to stand up raising its head on the surface of
this earth.
