Umer Chapra Contribution in Building Muslim Civilization

The idea of Umer Chapra in building Muslim civilization was based on his research on the position of Muslims who from time to time more and more felt strange with the civilization and Islamic values itself, even the civilization was gradually increasingly eroded and marginalized by Western culture. He tried to restore the Muslim position which should be done as the Messenger of Allah had pointed out, and their positive role in building civilization. The Islamic civilization has the power that lies in the development of morals and material strength. For Chapra, the moral development without being integrated with the economic development cannot be realized. And at the same time, this economic development must also have a worldview and strategy that is in line with religious objectives (maqashid asy-syari'ah). The development of Muslim civilization requires the transformation of human beings and their institutions, focusing in the increasing of education and personality development, and the simultaneous mobilization of material, economic and technological resources for the rearrangement of community structures over the principles of deliberation and accountability, unity, independence and justice.


A.
The superiority of civilizations that Muslims have built in the past is hard to lose from the memory of every Muslim. The enchantment of civilization based on the faith and values of Islam continues to motivate them to revive the civilization.
Islam as a universal religion has been empirically proven that it is the most widely encompassing religion of YDULRXV UDFHV DQG QDWLRQV ZLWK DQ DUHD RI LQÁXHQFH FRYHULQJ Umer Chapra Contribution in Building Muslim Civilization almost all climatological and geographical features 1 . Every time Islam enters a country it will create a civilization within the country. The reference sources in the formation of this Muslim civilization are the Qur'an and Hadith that serves as a unifying force that is not owned by other civilizations.
Gustave E. Von Grunebaum with a wonder tone once wrote in his paper, Pluralism in the Islamic World, as quoted by Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi as follows: "Nations come and go. The kingdoms rise and fall. But Islam persists and can safeguard travelers (nomads) and settlers, builders of civilizations in Islam and their destructors. So what factors unite them into one umma; Those who are conscious or unprepared to maintain their individuality, while on the other hand endeavor to bind themselves to universal Islam as their precious spiritual wealth." 2 However, the present reality tends to show the decline of Muslim civilization, with indicators of the absence of accountability of power holders and good governance, moral GHJUDGDWLRQ DQG WKH LQHIÀFLHQW DQG XQMXVW HFRQRPLF V\VWHPV They are perceived as failing to learn from the gloriousness of civilizations that had been built in the past. This prompted many Muslim intellectuals, including Umer Chapra, to reformulate the factors that support the development of their civilization.
During this time, Umer Chapra was known to the public as an economic expert, though his idea to rebuild Islamic civilization cannot be underestimated. This original 3DNLVWDQL ÀJXUH ZKR ODWHU VHWWOHG DQG VZLWFKHG FLWL]HQVKLS RI Saudi Arabia was born on February 1, 1933. His father was Abdul Karim Chapra, a devout person, so that makes the daily life of his family cannot be separated from religious education. He got his Primary and secondary education in his hometown. His intelligence was apparent when he was in school which was shown by his model student title among 25,000 exam students in 1950. Then he continued his undergraduate studies to Karachi University to a BBA degree in 1954 and his master's degree in 1956. While his Ph.D. was achieved from the University of Minnesota in Islamic economics in 1961. 3 7KH H[SHUWV ZKR LQÁXHQFH &KDSUD·V WKRXJKW DUH Maulana Abu al-A'la al-Maududi, the leader of Jama'ah Islamiyah organization, and Umar Chapra actively followed al-Maududi's studies. In fact, Chapra with some of his friends such as Zafar Ishaq Ansori, Khurshid Ahmad and others were active in the Islami Jamiat Talaba, an Islamic organization which is the wing of the student organization of the al-Maududi-led organization.
Chapra's academic career was begun by being a lecturer at the University of Minnesotta (1957Minnesotta ( -1960, an associate professor at the University of Wisconsin, Platteville (1960-1961 and 1963-1964), a Senior Economist at the Institute of Economic Development, Karachi, Pakistan (1961-1962, and an Assosiate Professor at the University of Kentucky, Lexington (1964-1965. In addition, Chapra was a member of the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency for 34 years , and at the same time he was active in various studies. Islam as a religion that was born in Mecca by emphasizing on the transcendental unity of God (tawhid) expressly gives identity to the civilization it built. Islam has played an important role that sparked the progress of the Muslim community. Islam activates all development factors in a positive direction. Islam gives maximum strength to the human aspect, which is the primary force behind the fall and wake of civilization of a society. Islam seeks its adherents DV PRUH TXDOLÀHG KXPDQ EHLQJV DQG VHHNV WR UHIRUP DOO WKH institutions that surround them. Or in other words, Islam seeks to elevate mankind morally and materially, creating a balance between material and spiritual aspects, seeing that both are important factors for the development of human quality and well-being.
Not only that, Islam also provides the sacredness of the meaning of life, the honor of the individual and the property, and gives a high degree of knowledge 5 , by making WKH ÀUVW YHUVH UHYHDOHG WR WKH PHVVHQJHU RI $OODK LQ WKH IRUP of the urgency of science. 6 Islam gives women a respectable position and orders men to treat them well. 7 Islam places 5 4 6 DO 0XMDGLODK > @ 6 4 6 DO $ODT > @ 7 4 6 DQ 1LVD· > @ education and proper coaching for children as an important goal of shari'a, to ensure that future generations are able to bear the burden of subsequent development. 8 The revolutionary Islamic world view has changed the SKLORVRSK\ RI KXPDQ OLIH E\ LQMHFWLQJ D PHDQLQJ DQG SXUSRVH in life. Islam makes human beings parallel in its position as FDOLSK RQ HDUWK ,VODP SURYLGHV MXVWLFH GLJQLW\ HTXDOLW\ WR DOO mankind without distinction of sex, race, position and wealth. Islam makes this ideal as an effective reality by forming a leadership over the weak and oppressed. 9 It is this noble ideals in Islam that inspire Chapra to rebuild Muslim civilization, which cannot be separated from its main teachings, namely the Qur'an and Sunnah. For him, an important factor in building Muslim civilization is to adhere to the teachings of Islam itself, with two main sources of comprehensive power in regulating human affairs and its transformation. Chapra's opinion is based on the statement of the Qur'an itself that God will not change the state of a people until they change their own circumstances. 10 Both verses above assert that the real man became the architect RI KLV RZQ GHVWLQ\ 0DQ LV QRW RQO\ D ÀQDO JRDO EXW DOVR D PHDQV RI GHYHORSPHQW (YHQ LQ WKH 4 6 DQ 1DMP > @ 39, it mentions that humans will not get in addition to what they earn. Thus, the advancement and retreat of human civilization can only be explained rationally by analyzing their own motivations, efforts, character and personality. The Qur'an has undertaken a great revolution with its preference to the weak and oppressed. This is understandable given the history of the Qur'an itself the history of salvation and liberation for humanity. The Qur'an is revealed to save 8 Chapra, Peradaban Muslim, 49. 9 4 6 DV\ 6\X·DUD· > @ 10 4 6 DU 5D·G > @ DQG 4 6 DO $QIDO > @ and liberate man from all forms of moral, social, cultural, and structural oppression, both in the form of ideas and in the form of its praxis. This rescue and liberation mission takes place through 2 (two) paths namely vertical and horizontal path. On the vertical path, the Qur'an as the word of God conveyed to the Prophet Muhammad immediately responds to the actual problems that occur in society. The horizontal path-after the Prophet's death and composed into the Mushaf of the Qur'an through interpretations are dialogued with the reality of life so that it can give birth to salvation, liberation and enlightenment over all universal humanity issues. 11 Chapra's conviction to be able to rebuild Islamic civilization as well as the past is also because Islam is the only reality living in a Muslim world that has the charisma to attract the masses, unite them in spite of them, and motivate them to do the truth even if they are degraded. Islam provides a balanced and workable program for comprehensive political, economic, social and moral reforms. In fact, the Islamic HPSKDVLV RQ VRFLDO HFRQRPLF MXVWLFH WKH DFFRXQWDELOLW\ of political authority, and the character of development in instilling education and dialogue to create a change can prove to be a great gift to the Muslim world.

Chapra
The idea of Umer Chapra in building Muslim civilization was based on his research on the position of Muslims who from time to time feel more and more strange to the civilization and Islamic values itself, even civilization gradually increasingly eroded and marginalized by Western culture. He tried to restore the proper position of the Muslims as the Messenger of God had pointed out, and their positive role in building civilization, although he himself realized that this was an uneasy colossal work.
Chapra's hope is strengthened by binding on the VWDWHPHQW RI WKH 4XU·DQ LQ WKH 4 6 $OL ,PUDQ > @ WKDW Muslims are the best people presented to man. Thus, this people should make a positive contribution in building world civilization. 13 For Chapra, history is not only a series of events, but more than that it is a collection of images that reveal a series of achievements and failures, brilliance and misfortune, and glory and destruction. History is also a record of the long MRXUQH\ RI PDQNLQG WR WRPRUURZ WKH FROOHFWLRQ RI WKH SDVW to this day, and the gatekeeper to meet the future. It is like a mirror by which man can understand the fall episode and the rise of a nation and civilization through the interrelationship of ideas, individuals, institutions, and society. In addition, history also offers mankind a space to learn from the past, pursue today, and welcome a better future. With history, the human eye is wide-eyed, and thought is confronted with a series of challenges. The challenge of responding, analyzing, and digging deeper is the cause behind the event. 14 The inspiration for building Muslim civilization-in Chapra's view-comes from Islam itself. This is because the vision of Islam is built on a society where the individuals in it are shrouded in morals and intertwined together through VWURQJ IUDWHUQDO WLHV ZKHUH MXVWLFH SUHYDLOV DQG DOO QHHGV DUH met, the whole family becomes strong and the children get love, love and concern for both parents, where crime and WHQVLRQ FDQ EH PLQLPL]HG DQG VRFLDO MXVWLFH SUHYDLOV 15 &KDSUD FRQÀUPV WKDW WKH IRXQGDWLRQ RI IDLWK LV WKH factor that distinguishes Islamic civilization from other civilizations, with its main characteristics that combine spiritual and material, moral and mundane aspects. He views life as a whole organ. Therefore, all the problems faced in this life must be broken down through a holistic and comprehensive approach, not through a partial and separate approach to one another. 16 Humans as dynamic beings have the motivation to gain a good life and build their civilization. One of the things that affect this motivation is the effort they do in improving the welfare. It is hoped that community development will bring positive impacts to the realization of the equitable distribution of development products to all levels of society, regardless of color, sex, age, position, wealth and religion. 17 Building civilization requires a productive and moral human resources. It is not proper that human energy is ZDVWHG RQO\ IRU FRQÁLFW DQG ZDUIDUH EXW KXPDQ HQHUJ\ LV empowered for the improvement of moral, physical, and LQWHOOHFWXDO TXDOLWLHV E\ PDNLQJ MXVWLFH DQ LPSRUWDQW IDFWRU LQ EXLOGLQJ D GLJQLÀHG FLYLOL]DWLRQ 7KH LPSRUWDQFH RI MXVWLFH as a pillar of this civilization has been stated in the Q.S. 7KDKD > @ 7KH DEVHQFH RI MXVWLFH SUHFLVHO\ PDNHV civilization stagnant and undeveloped, it may even lead to GHFOLQH EHFDXVH ZLWK LQMXVWLFH LQ GHYHORSPHQW ZLOO WULJJHU GLVKDUPRQ\ DQG FRQÁLFW Justice in building human civilization will be realized if accompanied by social agreements, institutions or rules of behavior that can be accepted and obeyed consistently by everyone. This agreement includes respect for the soul (right to life), belief or religion, and property. Everyone should promote honesty and integrity, passion for hard work, and caring for those in need. To realize people who are moral and motivated to continue to learn and work hard certainly cannot be separated from the role of the family. 18 Thus, building a moral Muslim civilization starts from education in the family.
Chapra's views on the importance of education in the family are in line with Ibn Khaldun's statement that the sign of civilization is the development of science such as physics, chemistry, geometry, arithmetic, astronomy, medicine and so on. In fact, the rise and fall of a civilization related to the advancement of science. 19 The importance of education is also expressed by Imam asy-Syaibani in Ahmad Izzan  the moral formation of a person. These environmental factors include the family, school, and community environment. 20 Essentially, education is an attempt to foster the personality of each individual to be better in accordance with the rules of religion and norms that exist in society. In the family environment, every adult-in this case-the parent will inevitably have to play a role as, because the educator is a fundamental social act for the growth or development of the next generation to be a good and wise man. Or in other ZRUGV WKH SDUHQW LV WKH ÀUVW HGXFDWRU LQ ZKLFK WKH FKLOG interacts from birth, grows, and develops. The family is also the oldest and most important educational institution, since most of the child's life is in the midst of the family, so the most widely accepted educational process also comes from the family. Hence, known in the Arabian proverb, al-ummu madrasatun (Mother is school).
Education in the family is not a theoretical course, but many are practical, by sharpening skills and realizing a democratic atmosphere. Each member of the family freely expresses, works, and argues, and is trained to be tolerant and respect the opinions and works of others.
If the family fails to perform its role as an educational LQVWLWXWLRQ IRU LWV PHPEHUV LW ZLOO EH PRUH GLIÀFXOW IRU LWV recovery efforts. The failure of education in the familyaccording to Chapra-can occur at least for two reasons: First, if in the family, parents do not have the personal qualities that enable them to educate their children. Second, if in the family there is no nuance of love and attention, caring and caring each other. 21 In addition to the family, existing institutions in society also have a role in building a moral civilization. Only fair institutions are capable of realizing civilization. The principle RI IDLUQHVV LV WR IXOÀOO WKH ULJKWV DQG REOLJDWLRQV DFFRUGLQJ to their respective capacities, without coercion. Therefore, a standard is required of how humans should interact and carry out the obligations. In this case, institutions in Muslim societies must establish standards of rules of conduct based on religious norms (shari'a), since the true existence of sharia is for the good of humanity and the interests of society. Shari'a teaches to do good and avoid bad and destructive actions.
However, Chapra realizes that not all countries where Muslims live have based their institutional norms on the rules of shari'a that resulted in the Shari'a not playing a maximum role in building the civilization of Muslim society. Whereas ´*RRG JRYHUQDQFHµ ZKLFK LV WKH MDUJRQ RI DOPRVW DOO countries that gives recognition of individual ownership and individual respect in the framework of moral values, is in fact a part of Islamic teachings and will always be in harmony with Muslim thought.
Referring to Ibn Khaldun's opinion, Chapra revealed that institutions in society should be able to play a role in protecting and ensuring the safety of the people, maintaining ODZV DQG UHJXODWLRQV HQVXULQJ MXVWLFH VWULYLQJ IRU WKH IXOÀOOPHQW RI OLIH HOLPLQDWLQJ SXEOLF ZRHV DQG LPSURYLQJ their welfare. 22 Islamic civilization has the power that lies in the development of morals and material strength. For Chapra, moral development without integration with economic development cannot be realized. This is because the development of science and technology go hand in hand with increased savings and investment that can accelerate the development process. And at the same time, this economic development must also have a worldview and strategy that is LQ OLQH ZLWK UHOLJLRXV REMHFWLYHV maqashid asy-shari'ah). 23 In addition, economic development must also FRQVLGHU WKH SULQFLSOHV RI HIÀFLHQF\ DQG MXVWLFH WKDW DUH not only accountable to fellow human beings, but also to God. Therefore, Chapra emphasizes that in economic development it is necessary to utilize all the potential of human and material resources along with all its components VXFK DV PDUNHW PRQHWDU\ DQG ÀQDQFLDO V\VWHP SXEOLF DQG private sectors. Thus, it is expected that the quantity of goods and services produced can be maximally successful. Every individual also has equal opportunity to work and produce,

DQG PDQDJH KLV LQFRPH HIÀFLHQWO\ DV ZHOO
The role of the state in this economic development cannot be underestimated. The state is obliged to eradicate poverty, maintain the stability of the real value of money, create full employment conditions, uphold moral values, provide legal certainty and create order, ensure social and HFRQRPLF MXVWLFH HVWDEOLVK VRFLDO VHFXULW\ DQG SURPRWH equitable distribution of income and wealth, to public ÀQDQFLDO UHVRXUFHV DQG H[SHQGLWXUHV DQG KDUPRQL]H international relations and safeguard state defense.
Disregarding economic development, it is feared to lead WR ÀVFDO LPEDODQFHV UDPSDQW FRUUXSWLRQ XQMXVW GLVWULEXWLRQ of wealth, tax delays, declining currency values, which lead to economic crisis and state dependence on foreign loans. 24 In addition to economic factors, the construction of Muslim civilization also requires the transformation of human beings and their institutions, which is accompanied by the motivation of spiritual power and united in fraternal bonds. Unity among individuals makes it possible to create a good, stable, and strong government. This is evidenced by the Prophet Saw himself when establishing the state of Medina. The tribes that have for centuries been engaged in disputes can be united in a brotherhood which is able to bring about an honest government, an orderly life and a guaranteed security, and the establishment of an orderly and fair market, which further encourages the realization of GHYHORSPHQW LQ DOO ÀHOGV The demographic sector of the progress of rural and urban societies with economic growth in these two regions also serves as a catalyst for development. The transformation of prosperity from one sector to another over time has formed one of the most important foundations in socio-economic and political dynamics and fosters intellectual progress.

Anticipating Causes of Civilization Degradation 4.
Like most Muslim scholars, Chapra also holds that the cause of the weakening of the strength of Islamic civilization is not because of Islam itself. Chapra vigorously refutes the opinion of orientalists who say Islam is the trigger of civilization's decline, and leads to poverty and backwardness in society.  Chapra explained that the absence of primogeniture system in the concept of inheritance in Islam because SULPRJHQLWXUH LQ JHQHUDO RQO\ XVHG WR IXOÀOO WKH ZLOO RI feudalism. If primogeniture were assumed to play a role in European and American development then it would not be an excuse to assume that primogeniture is indispensable to nation-wide development. Because in fact the most important role in development in the world of Europe and America is good governance, land reform, social equality, and cultural values. 27 In fact, the absence of primogeniture should have D ÀQDQFLQJ HIIHFW IRU WKH IRUPDWLRQ RI D EXVLQHVV HQWLW\ E\ PRWLYDWLQJ SHRSOH WR MRLQWO\ SXW WKHLU FDSLWDO DV VWRFN WR IRUP a larger and real business entity.
As for the absence of limited liability in the concept of Islamic economy as stated by Kuran, Chapra denied by explaining that the seed of the limited liability concept LV DFWXDOO\ DOUHDG\ LQ WKH VWXG\ RI ,VODPLF ÀTK 7KH FORVHVW estimates of the corporate legal entity in Islam are bait almal (state treasurer), mosque, and waqf. Even the concept of limited liability that exists in the mudarabah (commenda) contract on the business organization has progressed FRQVLGHUDEO\ ZLWKRXW WKH VLJQLÀFDQW FRQVWUDLQWV WKDW PDQ\ corporations face in modern times. 28 27  While related to the institution of endowments which Kuran viewed as a cause of the decline of Muslim civilization, Chapra responded that if the waqf institutions are managed according to Islamic rules and properly supervised then will make the progress of civilization and development. As for the reality that much happening now that the waqf institutions are not well managed, then the fault lies in the management system, not the institution of waqf itself, because conceptually waqf actually motivates society empowerment, social development, and physical infrastructure through individual generosity. So it has become the duty of the state to encourage the management of waqf according to Islamic principles.
If neither of the above mentioned topics by the orientalists is the cause of the Muslim civilization's retreat, Chapra then reveals 4 (four) factors causing the decline: First, moral damage begins from the neglection of the role of the family in care and education. Because after all, every human being needs the proper education and OHJDO SROLWLFDO DQG VRFLDO LQVWLWXWLRQV WKDW HQVXUH MXVWLFH WKH development of all human potential, and their participation in community development. Moral damage actually resulted in the death of creativity, vitality, and solidarity.
Second, the tyrant. Absolute power which is not accompanied by adequate accountability, neglect the democracy and the Islamic political system. In Chapra's view, every ruler actually has a responsibility to uphold a MXVW VWDWH RI MXVWLFH DQG IXOÀOO WKH GHPDQGV RI WKH SHRSOH V welfare by regulating the state's affairs in accordance with the teachings of sharia and decisions on the basis of deliberation. Government leaders should be elected by the people free and secret, and avoid money politics. Although leaders are elected and accountable to the people, but both-leaders and people-have no absolute freedom in the Khilafah system. %RWK DUH FRQWUDFWXDOO\ ERXQG WR WKH REMHFWLYHV PRUDO OLPLWV and institutions of sharia. 29 Chapra added that even today the Islamic world has not been able to re-establish a procedure that has been H[HPSOLÀHG E\ 0XKDPPDG VDZ LQ RUJDQL]LQJ WKH JRYHUQPHQW in Medina, which can unite Muslims, ushering in a regular and peaceful transfer of power which enables a competent and respected person to be elected, the realization of the use of a MXVW DQG HIÀFLHQW SXEOLF UHVRXUFH LQ DFFRUGDQFH ZLWK VKDUL·D and the presence of free criticism without being covered fear of government policies.

In fact, according to Chapra, the factor that exacerbated the decline of science and technology LQ VRPH SDUWV RI WKH ,VODPLF ZRUOG LV WKH FRQÁLFW WKDW DULVHV between rationalists and conservatives as a result of the use of the power of the state by the rationalists to carry out his views that often get resistance from the people. The debate between the Mu'tazilah and the philosophers confronting Ahlussunnah wal Jama'ah is an example of endless tensions to this day. Similarly, the inquisition (mihnah) that had been experienced by the classical scholars became the trigger of intellectual stagnation in the Islamic world. 31 Fourth, disharmony of public relations and government. The history of the Islamic world proves the tidal relationship between the two. Whereas a harmonious relationship will create a conducive atmosphere in the application of religious norms, ensuring the implementation realization of the Law DQG VRFLDO LQVWLWXWLRQV DQG EXLOGLQJ D MXVW FLYLOL]DWLRQ 32 The disharmony of public relations and government also affects their attitude towards women.

This reduction in numbers is often attributed to the typical position of female companions as a precedent and an early model of women's role in Islamic societies that are different from those of women after the time of the Prophet. Political and cultural factors that tend to marginalize women also contributed to the decline of women's role in various other VFLHQWLÀF DQG VRFLDO DFWLYLWLHV $EGXO 'MDPLO DOVR UHYHDOHG WKDW WKHUH LV DFWXDOO\ D contradiction between moslem scholars after the death of Prophet saw. with the social reality of his time. In fact, in the time of the Prophet saw. women occupy strategic posts in intellectual, economic, and even political life. This is reinforced by a historical record that describes the various LQYROYHPHQWV RI ZRPHQ LQ MLKDG FDULQJ IRU YLFWLPV DQG others. This diverse position certainly signals that women interact with men in their daily activities. 38 Therefore, the resurrection strategy to build the Muslim civilization as well as to anticipate the decline of civilization, is focused on improving education and personality development, and mobilization of material, economic, and technological resources simultaneously for the restructuring of society structures over the principles of deliberation and DFFRXQWDELOLW\ XQLW\ LQGHSHQGHQFH DQG MXVWLFH The above strategy needs to be supported by 4 (four) things, namely: (a) proper coaching and moral education, especially for the younger generation, combined with the QHFHVVDU\ VNLOOV WUDLQLQJ E MXVWLFH ODZ DQG RUGHU DQG WKH security of life, property and honor of each individual; (c) GHFHQW ZRUN DQG MRE DQG VWULYLQJ RSSRUWXQLWLHV WKDW HQDEOH everyone to channel their talents to improve the well-being of themselves and their communities; (d) an environment conducive to hard work and creativity, as well as to build mutual trust, cooperation, and social solidarity. 39 &KDSUD DGGHG WKDW WKHVH FRQGLWLRQV ZLOO EH GLIÀFXOW WR IXOÀOO ZLWKRXW SURSHU worldview.

It is undeniable that there are many ideas of characters LQÁXHQFLQJ &KDSUD·V WKLQNLQJ $ VHULHV RI SURPLQHQW ÀJXUHV who have studied the fall and wake of a civilization such as Ibn Khaldun (d. 808/1406) and Gibon (d. 1208/1794) in the past, and Spengler (1947), Schweitzar (1949), Sorokin (1951), Toynbee (1957), North (1973), Kennedy (1987 have enriched Chapra's insights. Nevertheless, Ibn Khaldun's idea was the PRVW LQÁXHQWLDO RI DOO WKHVH WKLQNHUV· LGHDV DFFRPSDQLHG by an adaptation to the contemporary reality of the model of civilization development by Ibn Khaldun that had been formulated since 600 years ago in his Muqaddimah. Ibn Khaldun's theory of development and setbacks that inspired Chapra are summarized in eight principles. First, the power of sovereignty (al-mulk) cannot be maintained unless by implementing religious norms and rules of conduct (shari'a). Secondly, the Shari'a will not be implemented unless it is a sovereign (al-mulk). Third, sovereignty will not gain strength unless supported by human resources. Fourth, human resources cannot be maintained except with property. Fifth, property cannot be obtained except by development. $OWKRXJK ,EQ .KDOGXQ·V WKRXJKW GRPLQDQWO\ LQÁXHQFHG Chapra in attempting to build Muslim civilization, there was a distinction between the two minds that the building of civilization in Ibn Khaldun's model was not always synonymous with economic development. Ibn Khaldun considers the state not to be directly involved in economic activity, because it will hinder the people's opportunity WR JDLQ SURÀW GLVUXSW WKH SULYDWH VHFWRU DQG HYHQ ORZHU state revenues from the tax sector. While Chapra states that without economic development then the process of community development will not be realized.
Chapra's notion that beliefs are the distinguishing factor of Islamic civilization from other civilizations in line with Sayyid Qutb's opinion states that faith is the source of civilization, although in Islamic civilization the organizational structure and form are materially different, but its principles and values are one and permanent. These principles are piety, belief in the unity of God (tawhid), supremacy of humanity above all material things, the development of human values and guarding of animal desires, respect for the family, realizing its function as khalifah on earth based on guidance and His command. 44 In line with Sayyid Qutb, Muhammad Abduh stressed that religion or belief is the principle of all civilizations. Ancient nations like Greece, Egypt, India, and others built their civilization from a religion, a belief, or a faith. Arnold Toynbee also acknowledged that spiritual power is a force that enables a person to give birth to the outward manifestation which is then called civilization. 45 ,VPDLO 5DML DO )DUXTL DOVR FRQVLGHUV WKH LPSRUWDQFH RI WKH IRXQGHU RI ,VODP LQ EXLOGLQJ FLYLOL]DWLRQ 6SHFLÀFDOO\ DO Faruqi positioned monotheism as the most basic principle that embraces and determines other principles, and binds the elements of science, culture and civilization as an integral and organic entity, then forming it in its own framework to harmonize and support each other. With the identity of monotheism that Islam attaches to the civilization, the rate of change can vary, from small to radical. Change is small if it only affects the shape, and radical if it affects its function. Therefore, in the view of al-Faruqi Muslims need to develop the science of monotheism and make the disciplines of logic, epistemology, metaphysics and ethics as its branches. 46 Still according to al-Faruqi, holding on to the principle of monotheism is a necessity and is the foundation of all moral values, goodness, and religiosity. A Muslim can EH GHÀQHG E\ KLV REHGLHQFH WR PRQRWKHLVP ZLWK KLV recognition of the unity and transcendence of God as the supreme principle of all existence, life, and cosmos. There is no provision in Islam that can be released from monotheism. Even the implementation of all religious teachings, either command or prohibition will be destroyed if it is against the monotheism. 47 The urgency of education and technology for the development of civilization necessitates the elimination of the gap between the Muslim world and the developing countries by offering high quality education and research facilities through the development of schools and colleges. 45 Ibid. 46 ,VPDLO 5DML DO )DUXTL Tauhid, (Bandung: Pustaka, 1988), 16-17. 47 Ibid., 18-19.
