 Abduh   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The name of Muhammad Abduh is synonymous with "Islamic Modernism," the variety of Islam that has paradoxically been identified both as "Islamic liberalism"and as the origin of today's illiberal "fundamentalism." Abduh was himself a paradoxical figure.
It traces his progress from the village in which he was born to membership of a small group of republican Freemasons in Cairo, from which he emerged as one the chief ideologues of the Urabi Revolt, a brief prominence that landed him in jail when the revolt failed.
Abduh, however, was beyond doubt the most prominent figure in the transition from pre-modern Islam to today's Islam, as it exists in all its varieties, liberal and illiberal.

The Sufis are further criticised for promoting attitudes of otherworldliness that have no proper basis in the Qur'an and sunnah, and do not match the needs of modern day society; and cults associated with the tombs of Sufi saints have also been a focus of criticism.
The Muhammadiyah (followers of Muhammad) was founded in Jogjakarta, Java, on 18 November 1912 by Ahmad Dahlan (age 44), a devout Muslim educated for several years in Mecca, where he had been much affected by the writings of the Egyptian reformist Muhammad 'Abduh.
'Abduh advocated the purification of Islamic thought and practice, the defence of Islam against its critics, and the promotion of these aims through a modernised system of Islamic education.

 Muhammad Abduh
Muhammad `Abduh was greatly influenced by Jamal ud-Din al-Afghani, the founder of the modern pan-Islamic movement which sought to unite the Muslim world under the banner of the faith.
He considered that Muhammad Abduh and Rashid Rida’s viewpoints corresponded with “la scolastique chretienne” [Le Commentaire Coranique du Manar 82] in the sense that the relation of reason and revelation was complementary, not antipodal.
He interpreted the word salihat, as it occurs in 103:3, as works to be found among the nations in the possession of a prophetic shari’a as well as among the nations to whom no prophet was sent, and since the principles of the salihat are universal, they are indicated by the Qur’an as bi`l-ma `ruf.

Abduh's concern with internal reform became particularly marked after his appointment in 1899 to the highest clerical post in Egypt, that of state mufti.
Equally unfortunately, 'Abduh's moderate enlightened approach has proved to be of less appeal to most of his followers and the Muslim masses than the defiant political activism of his erstwhile mentor and collaborator Afghani.
He formed an alliance with a minor local ruler, Muhammad ibn Saud, founder of the House of Saud; thus was born the union between the desert kingdom and the religious movement that sought to restore Islam to its original power.

Abduh offered a modernist interpretation of the Koran which concluded that the Koran (al-Nisa/4, 3 and al-Nisa/4, 129) was in fact in favor or monogamy, since within the teachings of the Koran to have more than one wife was contingent upon equal treatment and impartiality, both of which are a practical impossibility.

Muhammad's forces fought three wars and several bedouin-style "raids" with the Meccan pagans, who wanted to wipe them out and kill their prophet.
As it was, Muhammad announced a general amnesty and showed impressive generosity to his defeated foes, some of whom later emerged as leaders of Islam.

But 'Abduh's 'modernism' went hand in hand with returning to an idealized past, and his 'rationalism' was tempered by a belief in divine transcendence which limits the scope of intellectual inquiry.
'Abduh believed that Islam was the one true religion based on reason and revelation, but that in the course of time it had become distorted by various extrinsic factors.
In discussing the moral law, 'Abduh again begins with an appeal to common sense, arguing that we have no difficulty in recognizing our voluntary actions as good or bad in themselves or by reference to their particular or general consequences.

Sheikh Muhammad's teachings are geared toward educating believers in proper beliefs through direct study of the Qur’aan and hadeeth and encouraging them to live up to the dictates of their faith in both private and public life.
In the case of Sheikh Muhammad, the evidence portrays a scholar whose goal in life was to educate Muslims about their faith and to create a just society for both men and women, not to engage the entire non-Wahhabi world in an endless jihad.

Since the emergence of the modern reformism movement of Jamaluddin al-Afghani, Muhammad Abduh and Rashid Ridha at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries, many studies have been made on the decline and fall of the Muslims.
The rapid rise of the Arab nation from its dark period of paganism prior to Muhammad to become the most powerful and civilized nation in the world then, within a short period of time, is due to the new, inspiring, powerful and dynamic Islamic ideology of monotheism brought by Muhammad.
In the modern age (`modern' here is taken to mean the birth of the scientific method beginning with the rise of Muhammad), we have seen the destruction of the early Muslim empire and civilization and the destruction of several Eastern medieval states and European empires.
