Muslim Modernism

Muslim Modernism is a movement that began in the 19th century, advocating for the reinterpretation of Islamic teachings in light of contemporary challenges. It seeks to reconcile traditional Islamic beliefs with modern ideas such as science, democracy, and human rights. Modernists emphasize reasoning, education, and reform, encouraging Muslims to adapt practices and interpretations to the changing world without abandoning core principles. The movement aims to promote progress, tolerance, and understanding within Islamic contexts, fostering dialogue between tradition and modernity to address societal issues while maintaining religious identity.
