About This Book:
Mankind today is on the brink of a precipice, not because of the danger of complete annihilation which is hanging over its head-this being just a symptom and not the real disease
This text outlines the many stages of creating an authentic Islamic way of life. It begins by explaining Islam's goal and the techniques necessary to achieve it. The author then explains how the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) methodically planned and fostered the first Muslim community, and how successive generations lost sight of this proactive and revolutionary attitude. Syed Qutb, like many modern Islamic reformers, voiced deep worry about the widening gap between Islamic principles, institutions, and practices and the expanding post-colonial Muslim cultures, notably in Egypt. Within the pages of "Milestones," he attempts to answer fundamental questions such as, "Why is there a need for the revival of Islam?" Why do alternative approaches to life fall short?
What is the genuine essence of an Islamic identity and existence (also known as a "concept" for these two components)? How did Islam come to be established by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions? Can the same indisputably divinely inspired process be recreated today? Qutb is particularly interested in the issue of "Islamic methodology." He contends that Islamic ideals, together with the method in which they were implemented (as shown by the Prophet Muhammad and his distinguished companions), constitute the core of Islam.
