Summary

From the discussion, we can see that Islamic civilization that was rooted on the divine revelation (al-Quran and al-Sunnah) had brought abundant benefits to the mankind especially in knowledge. It never discards any aspect of human life and needs. Islamic civilization upheld the Islamic teachings in all aspects of civilization. The upholding of the teachings ensures the everlasting of the civilization. The ups and downs of Islamic civilization were not due to the teachings of Islam but in fact, it was due to Muslims who ignore the teachings of Islam and do not practice Islam in its totality in their daily life. The glory of Islamic civilization during the life of mankind is well preserved in the history of the world. Its tremendous achievements were even recognized by western historians until today. So, it can be a living example to show that Islam is a religion that comes to build a progressive society and would serve the goodness and betterment of the mankind.
