	The Islamic Way of Islamization
		The general understanding of the way our societies are to be Islamized is that there should arise a strongman with a big stick who should force people into obeying injunctions of Shari'ah.
		After the Prophet, the work of Islamization must of necessity be done by the 'ulama, not by the rulers, unless, of course, rulers are from the 'ulama.
		An important part of Islamization, therefore, is for 'ulama haqq to try and rid Muslim countries of these rulers and to thus remove the restrictions that are put on people's freedom of expression.

	The rise of Islam in Egypt, and Islamic persecution of Christians. Why were you born in Islam?
		Islamization and the rise of Islam in today’s Egypt
		The main objectives and ultimate goals of Islamic indoctrination are the islamization of the local population and the destruction of the indigenous Christian culture.
		Violent islamization peaked in two periods in the history of Egypt: during the early Abbasid era in the ninth century following the defeat of the Egyptian revolts against the Islamic Arab rule, and during the Bahri Mamluk era (1250-1390).

	Islam and Islamization in Sudan: Religion and Peacemaking: U.S. Institute of Peace
		Islamism and Islamization are inextricably bound in a relationship in which Islamism is an ideological core and Islamization is an adoption of practices and symbols that are perceived to embody the imperatives of ideology.
		As there are diverse aspects of Islamization under the current regime I would like to focus on two key issues: the war in the South and the sharia.
		The conflict was immediately "Islamized" and thrust upon the Northern public imagination as a "jihad".

		Islamization of knowledge/`ilm and the 'two cultures' (ideological and technological) is an individual duty/fard `ayn.
		Islamization is also a necessity as secular ideologies of Muslims have failed to promote al-din (the complete Islamic system), reason, life, posterity, wealth, and honor: al-din, `aql, hayat, nasl, mal, `ird.

	Islamization of knowledge (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The phrase "Islamization of knowledge" was first used and proposed by the Malaysian scholar Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas in his book "Islam and Secularism" Order: ISBN 9839962868 (first published in 1978).
		There are also debates on Islamic science and what it would mean to do science in a way that reflects the ethical teachings of Islam, and accept direction from the ijma on the priorities of such research.
		Nasr's work on the congruence between classical Islam and the modern ecology movement is thought by some to be even more fundamental, and to suggest parallels between the ethical constraints that secular activists seek to place on science and technology, and the ethical constraints that Islam sought to place on philosophy and politics.

	Islamization of knowledge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Islamization of knowledge is a term which describes a variety of attempts and approaches to synthesize the ethics of Islam with various fields of modern thought.
		However, some Muslims both liberal and traditional are skeptical of the approach, viewing the construction of fields such as Islamic science and Islamic economics largely as propaganda created to further the Islamist view that Islam is an all-encompassing social system.
		The phrase "Islamization of knowledge" was first used and proposed by the Malaysian scholar Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas in his book "Islam and Secularism" ISBN 983-99628-6-8 (first published in 1978).

	Gender Disparities, Economic Growth and Islamization in Pakistan - Council on Foreign Relations (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Islamization is clearly not the reason for Pakistan’s low female literacy rates.
		Proponents of Islamization position their policies as being a positive force for women, emphasizing that they serve to protect women’s dignity and honor.
		The intent of this paper is not to draw a causal relationship between Islamization and the traditional role of women in Pakistan.

	Islamization of science (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Yet, those who advocate an Islamization of science make use of Islamic models of categorization when they express their views on social predicaments in the society.
		In statements like "the Islamization of society will solve many of the problems in the Muslim community" it is implied that Islamization is a quest of ideology.
		Hence, Muslims in Europe are at the core of the discourse concerning the Islamization of science.

	History of Islamization of Albania!!! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Islamization of culturally advanced and largely Greek Orthodox Tosks was faster than a similar change of faith among the barbaric, and largely Catholic Ghegs.
		The peaceful and gradual Islamization of Albanians was disrupted by the feudal rebellion of Araniti and Kastrioti clans which was suppressed in 1468.
		Islamization changed totally the landscape of pastoral Albania,and the dynamic urbanization under guidance of skilled Muslim architects brought the impoverished bellicose tribesmen into the new world of multi-ethnic Dar-ul-Islam.

	The Process of Islamization
		Firstly, since Islamization has to be planned and planning is based on prediction of future happenings, this Qur'anic explanation of social change helps us to look behind the facade of the physical strength of any nation to the real factors that hold it together or cause it to disintegrate.
		It would accept them as full citizens, and accelerate the process of Islamization all over the world as part of its duty, and thus give it all the moral and material support and backing that it needs.
		Some groups while not going to the extent of consciously believing that they are the only Muslims, work and plan on that assumption, and so refuse to acknowledge the valuable contribution of other groups, individuals and official bodies and try to isolate themselves from them.

	The Islamization of Yoga in the Amrtakunda Translations
		This textual history indicates that the readers of this text engaged it in a process of Islamization, involving scriptural Islamic themes, philosophical vocabulary, and the terminology and concepts of Sufism.
		All these are instances of deliberate Islamization, in which the translator decided to use familiar terms and conventions to normalize the foreignness of the Indian text.
		The Islamizing tendency is most evident in the later stages of manuscript production; there, the most common recension of the Arabic dispenses with most of the Indian elements of the text.

	Islamization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An alternative hypothesis forwarded is the gradual assimilation of Islamic culture by populaces in lands newly conquered by Muslims or demographically transformed through mass Muslim migration putting forward a gentler image of conversion through acculturation, religious education programs in newly conquered lands and marriages among Muslim conquerors/migrants and the local people.
		The process of Islamization is a poorly studied field in relation to its social, historical, affective or psychological aspects.
		The conceptualization is dominated by two stereotypes; the first popularized and captured by Gibbon in the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is of a fanatical Arab horseman riding forth from the desert with a sword in one hand and the Quran in the other offering victims a choice between one of the two

	Demographic Islamization: non-Muslims in Muslim countries - PakDef Forums (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Four, and only four, processes have led to Islamization in the demographic meaning of the word: (FN3) conversion to Islam, differences in birth and/or death rates between Muslim and non-Muslim segments of the population, replacement of non-Muslims by Muslims through migration, and intermarriage, which automatically gives birth to a Muslim second generation.
		Its Islamization took almost a thousand years, but it was thorough; no Christian community of any significant size remained after the seventeenth century.
		Islamization has not been continuous, but rather marked by several breaks.(FN8) The first stage of Islamization, consisting mainly of conversions, ended with the Crusades.

	The Islamization of French schools: a disturbing report is leaked Weekly Standard, The - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Scores of informants told the Obin team that these neighborhoods were undergoing a "rapid and recent swing" toward Islamization, thanks to the growing influence of religious activists.
		They have come to be known as "bearded ones" (distinctive beards are a marker of Muslim purists and extremists--think of bin Laden) or "big brothers" (a name evocative of the worldwide jihadist movement's Muslim Brotherhood), and they offer young people a proud identity--Muslim--in place of the dismal identity of the unassimilated immigrant.
		The biggest social change entailed by this Islamization, Obin reports, is a deterioration in the position of females.

	IslamOnline - Contemporary Section (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Islamization of knowledge is an attempt to re-introduce the majestic Qur’an to the World, Ummah and resurgence movement as the only book that is capable of delivering-not only our Ummah but also-the whole mankind.
		In the Islamization of knowledge, we realize the universality of the crisis and that there is no way to emerge from that crisis except via the eternal divine writ for “no falsehood can ever attain to it, neither in a stealthy manner” (41:42).
		That entails the Islamization of the philosophical references, corroboration of scientific theories, and then dissociating them from their positivist and materialistic dimension, sorting them out within the frame of reference of their metaphysical and transcendental perspectives, which signifies the divine purposefulness in the universe, life and motion.

	Islamization in Bangladesh \| International Humanist and Ethical Union
		Perhaps the most serious and painful development in the Islamization of Bangladesh is reflected in the uncontrolled illegal, parallel judiciary system of instant summary Sharia courts that now hold sway in its villages.
		These summary courts dispense brutal and crude punishments, especially on women, for example burying waist-deep and stoning, beating with brooms and with shoes, shaving heads, flogging women and their parents, forcing them to walk with shoes around their neck, and so on.
		It seems that the only way to address the negative impact of the Islamization of Bangladesh is to put pressure on the Bangladeshi government through financial donor agencies such as the IMF, World Bank and donor countries.

	"The Anti-Millennium: The Islamization of Nazareth" by Raphael Israeli (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Sometime after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, the traditional Christian majority came to be balanced by the Muslims, mainly due to the influx of refugees who had sought shelter there when their villages were destroyed during the war.
		In light of this, the Christians look with horror at the present Islamization of Nazareth, presenting the nightmare that the third most important Christian holy place in the Holy Land might also be turned over to the Muslims.
		In Nazareth, the Shihab a-Din mosque will be erected under the watching eyes of Israel, a new holy shrine for the Muslims that will dwarf the Basilica of the Annunciation and obscure the Christian nature of the city.

	FrontPage magazine.com :: The Talibanization of Pakistan by John Lancaster
		"Islamization is not Talibanization," said Farid Ahmad Paracha, a leader of the Jamaat-e-Islami, the largest party in the religious alliance, and a member of the national assembly from Lahore.
		Rashid places much of the responsibility for that on the military, which he says has fostered the fundamentalist groundswell as a bulwark against India and is now living with the consequences.
		Such warnings date at least to the military government of Mohammed Zia ul-Haq, who seized power in 1977 and embarked on a vigorous effort to "Islamize" Pakistani society that ended with his death in a plane crash in 1988.

		It should be a priority for this and all future administrations to focus on halting and reversing the islamization of Europe.

		Our organized and gradual effort which shall culminate in the realization of that society is the process of Islamization.
		In other words, does Islam only specify the aim to be reached and leave the method of achieving that aim to the intelligence of individuals or does it also specify the means by which that aim is to be reached?
		If the means of achieving an aim are thus connected with one's view of the world the process of Islamization must be related to the Islamic view of life.

	The Islamization of Science
		The Conference was attended by thirty leading Muslim intellectuals and they unanimously agreed that “the contemporary crises of the Ummah was intellectual C a crisis of thought C and that the remedy was to be found in that framework.” Thus IIIT was founded in Herndon, Virginia, in 1981.
		No doubt, there are some statements about the natural sciences and how various branches, such as Biology, have theories which are alien to Islamic worldview but on the whole, the main thrust of IIIT and various scholars associated with the movement has been in the domain of social sciences.
		However, since science cannot exist in a vacuum or in total isolation of the historical and cultural conditions therefore Islamization of knowledge, in a general sense, can be taken as including the Islamization of science as well.

		The growing Muslim community is a mosaic of different ethnic, linguistic, cultural, sectarian and geographical backgrounds, and characterized by increasing internal tensions particularly over how to relate to the host society.

	The Islamization of Palestinian Identity:
		Hamas was able to solve this dilemma and respond to the nationalist and Zionist challenges by Islamizing Palestinian identity, both of the land and the people, and by introducing Palestinian elements into its pan-Islamic ideal.
		Finally, Hamas Islamizes the Intifada by depicting it as a jihad which started from the mosques by divine will in order to foil all attempts to impose capitulationist settlements on the Palestinian cause.
		The logical conclusion of the Islamization of Palestine and its past is the complete merging of Palestinian identity with Islam by making Islam the principal component of Palestinian identity.

	Islamization of the Palestinians
		The widening Islamization of the West Bank society was seen in the growing presence of Islamic students on university campuses, including the reputable nationalist-leftist university of Bir Zeit.
		In the early 1980s, the Islamic groups were equal rivals of the nationalist factions identified with the PLO in elections for student councils.
		The trend toward Islamization in the West Bank was more broadly apparent in the intensive construction of new mosques, the closure of film theaters, and a general return to Islam as manifested in greater religious observance by individuals and the modest deportment of women in public.

		This fact is compounded by the merging of Leftists/Marxists with the Islamists in a totalitarian ideological alliance that brings together over three-fifths of the world’s population [and has the expressed goal of destruction of liberty, freedom, and democracy.
		"The Islamic objective is to have all aspects of a nation’s culture and institutions undergo gradual Islamization to yield an Islamic state patterned after Shariah law," says Jonsson.
