When discussing the issue of thought, it is closely related to civilization. A great civilization is born from great thought. Islam has proven how the thoughts and ideas of Muslim figures have successfully transformed the world order and the way of life (system) within it.
What enabled Muslim figures to build a great civilization before the West managed to steal it from the Muslim world? The answer is their perspective. (worldview). When we talk about thinking, then there is worldview. A term that can transform and shape a person's thinking into a huge intellectual change arena.
Muslim figures who succeeded in building worldview which is true because they have straight thinking and are in line with the knowledge that has been excavated through a long process and for centuries. This knowledge is then integrated with other knowledge. divine, which is where the knowledge comes from.
What happened in the Islamic world at that time had a profound impact on progress, discovery, and a real contribution to humanity today. Everything that Islamic civilization produced at that time serves as a valuable reference for the current wave of globalization, which is increasingly unstoppable.
Based on historical facts, the success of Islam and its civilization began with a key concept, then gave birth to a system which originated from Latin. (systÄma) and Greek (sustÄma) is a unit consisting of components or elements that are connected together to facilitate the flow of information, material or energy to achieve a goal.
If we look at the definition of the system above, the result of a thought gives birth to a concept, and the concept then develops into a perspective that can change the order of thought according to the concept that is believed in.
The current globalization of thought, particularly in the Islamic world, is hampering thought processes. The intellectual legacy of past Muslim scholars and figures seems lost and cannot be traced or explored by current Muslim leaders.
It was in this decline that Western thought emerged, creating a new source of thought that attempted to supplant the role of Islamic thinkers. Their advances in thought ultimately had a tremendous impact on the development of world civilization.
When the Islamic world experienced decline, we can see what happened now. This is where the war known as ghazwul fikr This means a war of ideas between the West and Islam. This then becomes a very dangerous weapon of mass destruction against Islamic thought.
This weapon is now being used by the West to destroy Muslim knowledge and morals. Once they master thought, they will master civilization. Thus, Western civilization can dominate other civilizations, even though this civilization is far from the values and norms inherent in human nature.
From the descriptions above, it's clear that whoever masters thought will rule the world. Those who lose in thought will be destroyed by thought as well.
