Synopsis In Islam, we have particular interpretations for the usual terms, like intellect, education, society and polity etc. In this book specially these terms have been discussed in detail, in the light of the historical background with relevance to the present day context. This book has three sections, viz., Islamic Wisdom, Spirit of Governance and Present Scenario. In the first section, Islamic Philosophy has been studied, with special reference to Holy Quran, Prophets’ Tradition and great Islamic scholars’ works. And thus Islam emerges as the fountainhead for wisdom, knowledge and intellect. Further, the faith comes up as a practical discipline of life in the second section, which sheds light on Islamic tenets for administering a state, waging a war and establishing permanent peace. In the third section, Islam’s relevance and its role in contemporary world have been examined and evaluated very empirically. This academic and healthy debate, finally depicts the features of a living Islam in totality.
