Prelude 1

Believe it or not, there was a time when the Muslims were the “leaders of the civilized world”. In fact, the contributions of the Muslim Ummah to human civilization, science, technology, and intellectual culture is a well-known and widely studied topic today. But the real question is what went wrong? What happened to us? How come we are in such an unspeakable and awful state today?

The fall of the Muslim Ummah is an interesting story and without knowing where and how we went wrong in the past, the revival of the Ummah is impossible in the future.
