About the Book:
Muslim civilization has experienced a decline during the last five centuries after previously having undergone a long period of prosperity and comprehensive development. This raises a number of questions such as what factors enable Muslims to become successful during the earlier centuries of Islam and what led them to their present weak position. Is Islam responsible for this decline or are there some other factors which come into play? M. Umer Chapra, in this penetrating study, has tried to answer these questions thoroughly and has then discussed a reform program that could help reverse the cycle of decline.
