Unveiling Mysteries against “God of the Gaps” through Scientific Breakthroughs
Darwin’s single idea, namely the evolution of species, is taking strong ground in every field of scientific research in contemporary times.

The Foundation and Principles of Critical Thinking
This article explains the currently dominant paradigm of criticalthinking, which is considered universally applicable, in terms ofapplying various skills, techniques, standards, and procedures.However, it also contends that emphasizing the technical aspectsdoes not make it critical thinking, for that depends mainly upon itsown metaphysics – a view that is never discussed. I contend thatthe metaphysical premise is more important than the skills an…

Issues in Muslim Liberal and Islamic Revivalist Thought

They consider Muslim liberalists thought as creative interpretations, which contribute constructively toward the development of Islamic thought; however, they maintain that Islamic revivalists demonstrate rigidity, idealism, and fundamentalism and ca…
Liberal Islam
In recent years, the focus of research and public perception has been on liberal, moderate, and modernist Islam. Liberal Islam advocates liberal solutions to the problems of religion and society, namely, interpretations of Islam that have a special concern for democracy, women’s rights and empowerment, freedom of thought, and other contemporary issues. Its adherents also forcefully assert that liberal Islam is authentic, not just merely a western…

There exist several discourses. The revivalist discourse is constructed exclusively on the basis of the Islamic worldview. The revivalist approach to development is basically spiritual and elaborates a few fundamental axioms of development as well as h…
