The Contributions of Muhammad Naqib Al-Attas in the Islamization of the Contemporary Islamic World
In the modern era, in the face of adherence to tradition and development, Islamic education has always been in a state of imbalance and dilemma: those who adhere to tradition believe that sciences outside religious books are not religious sciences but rather secular sciences, unworthy or unappreciated. As a result, the traditional education system is unable to cultivate talents suitable for social development; Whereas secular education follows the Western education model, which emphasizes only the indoctrination and teaching of applied disciplines, and ignores values education—leading to the development of social material and culture, the decline of civilization, the decline of morals, an increase in crime, and other modern social ills.
