Sumario: | As the Muslim movements gain momentum around the Muslim world,
so does the need for a discourse that would make a religious tradition
relevant to the conditions of modernity. Unless Muslims are conscious
of the conditions and challenges of modernity and its historical and contemporary
trajectory, they cannot succeed in their emancipation from
their oppressors. A new discourse must be produced by those hluslims
who can look at the conditions of their times critically, in their pursuit
of justice. Such a movement will produce a new epistemic basis for the
new Muslim society, which still may be a mass society. The thought of
important scholars, Khalis M. Jalabi and Jawadat Sai’d, is discussed as
two examples of Islamic peace discourse.
