The West is neither an unimpeachable beacon of good or the source of all the world's ills. It's needs have dominated global commerce and affairs for much of the last two centuries but soon, that will no longer be the case. Power centres wax and wane. The West is waning. But the problem is it cant be replaced with the Islamic either because to be fair half way through we failed to exist and and I cant see any hope at the end of the tunnel.

To be honest having 1.6 billion Muslims doesn't equate into advancement, especially when we cant resolve our own problems in Syria, Somalia, Libya etc

for some reason we just lost it and all we are bussy doing now is praying 5 times a day and that's it. We cant control our politics, finances , cultures and even our destiny and its kinda reminiscent of the fall of the Islamic civilization
Anyone?

True, I think we have to go back to the very roots of the Tree whose branches and leaves are dying away. The root of all the crises is that serious loss of understanding and recognition of Who really Allah is and who really is our Prophet S.W. Our belief have become something that we just inherit from out forfathers, our conviction is weak, therefore we take desperate measures which are against Shariah. And the reason is our lost of Trust in Allah and loss of trust in the ways that our Prophet told us to act in situation. For this tree to flourish back again, it need to be given the proper nourishment at the root level, which is our Iman and Yaqeen. Our souls need to be nourished by the right food which is meant for it. We have been nourishing our souls on other than what Allah and his messenger ordered us. The love of Duniya has penetrated our Iman to such a level that even our ibadat are polluted with it. Hence we do pray 5 times but our actions manifest Fitnah, our dealings are unfair, our transactions are haram, our tongue speak lies, our knowledge is superficial and if even we take time out to study then it is only on the tongue, doesnt penetrate into our hearts. So this is our state collectively. So collectively as an ummah we fail. So our politics fail, our businesses fail, our states fail.
