The moral disability and the Muslims’ downfall  

Dr. Firoz Mahboob Kamal The moral disability & the consequence The most important cause of Muslims’ downfall is not any natural calamity or economic collapse or an epidemic of a killer disease.

The conceptual corruption & the betrayal of the Divine agenda

 Dr. Firoz Mahboobb Kamal  The distraction & the disconnection The distraction in the Muslim psyche from Allah Sub’hana wa Tala’s vision and objective is huge.

Absence of an Islamic State & the Calamities in the Muslim World

Living without a strategy No faith sustains with its conceptual originality, vision and mission in absence of its core institutions.

Communism ceased to survive as a significant ideology after the collapse of the Soviet Union. […]

The Deceptive Goal & the Earned Failures

 The genesis of failures A journey without a destination takes nowhere. Similarly, survival for the sake of survival only kills time and adds little worth to survival.
