| Sumario: | This article reviews the intellectual manifestations of Islamic revivalist
movements in general and the Islamization of Knowledge movement in
particular. The paper argues that the intellectual crisis of the Muslim
Ummah was identified by most of the earlier thinkers and leaders but it
did not receive sufficient attention. It reviews the assessment of the
intellectual crisis by Muslim thinkers, such as Iqbal and Mawdudi, and
identifies their understanding of the need and nature of ijtihad. The
paper then proceeds to reflect on the foundations and achievements of
the Islamization of Knowledge movement. The paper explores the relationship
between sociopolitical revival and intellectual revival and concludes
that the reconstruction of Islamic thought is a prerequisite to the
regeneration of Islamic civilization.
