Looking at the state of the world and the environment today, we recall what Alan Greenspan,
the former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of U.S.A. wrote in 2007, namely The Age of
Turbulence: Adventures in a New World (Penguin Books 2007). Although his focus was on the
financial tumult of recent times, particularly in the U.S.A., the title of his work is an apt
description of the current state of economic and financial turmoil, the political uncertainties,
social upheavals, moral degeneration and potential environmental catastrophes. In view of
these highly challenging global scenarios, a fundamental review of the well-established
conventional systems have to be undertaken by Muslim leaders, intellectuals and scholars if the
Muslim world and communities are not to remain hostage to the provenly corrupt and
unreliable internal and external structures. |
