	Fethullah Gülen: A life dedicated to peace and humanity - The Place of the Gülen Movement in the Intellectual History ...
		In the twenty first century, many contemporary Islamic scholars are calling for a renewed effort to re-examine the Qur'anic texts and review which texts are indeed timeless in their application, which are related to the specific historical context in which they appeared and which are genuinely ambiguous.
		Abdullah Saeed refers to this group as "progressive ijtihadists".
		Postmodernity, with its recognition of the validity of all points of view potentially provides an environment where recontextualization could legitimately take place.

	A Muslim Fed Up with the Hype over the Danish Cartoons by Najat Kessler — islam, muslim world, religion \| Gather
		Let me remind every Muslim living on planet earth today of what used to be a tradition of Islam in its brightest days in history; the forgotten practice of IJTIHAD, which means critical thinking, debating, dissenting, and practicing openness and tolerance within the religion of Islam.
		Islam is living its darkest days today, and we have nothing to show for as Muslim; so let us not demand respect of others for being close minded, extremists but let us earn the world respect by becoming enlightened, wise, tolerant Ijtihadists.
		I dare my fellow Muslims to take the high road of Ijtihad and start debating every verse of Koran not in order to convince someone else but in order to start learning about what it means to be a Muslim.

	Faith+Politics+HumanRights - Irshad Manji Lecture
		I think the beauty of emphasising Ijtihad is that I’m not asking my fellow Muslims to import a foreign tradition, or an alien virtue into their faith — not at all.
		People like me — the Ijtihadists — are reminding our fellow-Muslims and educating non-Muslims that Islam once embraced a pluralistic, progressive tradition of thought, that there is no reason (save for pure politics) we cannot have again.
		In fact, we need to rediscover the tradition of Ijtihad in order to update the practice of Islam for the 21st Century.

	MPR: Local Muslim reaction to cartoon controversy
		I challenge my fellow Muslims to learn how to practice dissent.
		Let us not demand respect from others for being closed-minded extremists, but let us earn the world's respect by becoming enlightened, wise, tolerant Ijtihadists.
		As a Muslim living here in Minnesota, when I heard about the Danish cartoons depicting the image of the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, I must admit, the first thought that went through my head was not one of outrage.

	The Prohibition of Recording The Hadith
		Such being the case, the Sahabah escalated their objections to the adoption of personal views and Ijtihad through means of reporting from the Holy Prophet since much reporting of the Holy Prophet's heritage would naturally prove the disagreement between the Holy Prophet's school and the school of Ijtihad.
		Moreover, the Holy Prophet's school comprises edificatory truths that are opposite to the intents of the Ijtihadists.
		These truths can be manifestly shown through any investigation to the books of Hadith and Islamic history.

	The Belmont Club: Retreat
		Islam suffered this fate in the 12th and 13th centuries after its “Golden Age” as ijtihad independent reasoning was replaced by taqleed imitation.
		The ijtihadists on the right are doing their best to destroy US universities and intellectual activity in general by promoting an ignorant taqleedist dogma that is ruthlessly dished out and enforced by the right wing media propaganda machine.
		The right must reject the close-minded ways of the Allah worshipers and start using their god-given intellects.
