ABSTRACT
The global society is heavily burdened by the negative aspects of the rapid and

accumulated negative effects include global warming and other ecological threats, the
widening gap between the rich and the poor, the excessive expansion of financial
markets which are by now far larger than the real economy, the never-ending military

global society, especially under the current globalization, has made us all aware of
potential civilizational assets available on the global scale in general, and the great
potential of Islamic civilization in particular. The list of these assets is not unlimited,
and among the high priority civilizations offering prospective alternative proposals,
Islam is at the top of this list. Islamic civilization shone brilliantly over the world

reached its final ripening. Although this revival is still in progress, in some fields,
alternative paradigms have already started to surface. Among these, Tauhidic science
and science education is one. Islamic economics is another important domain. Halal
