Description
Summary:The conflict between Islam and West is evident since the fall of the Othmanly state. The West never acknowledged the positive civilizational impact of Islam on them. Western attempts at secularization, the coercive state apparatus in the Muslim world and their Western sympathizers, and the mushrooming of Islamic institutions and movements for Islamization as a way of life has further widened the gap between the two. The West in general and the US in particular have the potentials as well as moral obligations to forge unity and peace by eradicating injustice and exploitation and by promoting economic freedom and well-being in the Muslim world.
