@skyfacts:
Forget those that preach separation of religion and science, deen and duniya, after-life and worldy existence; ignore them. Those that do are incomplete and can never offer holistic solutions to our problems.
The only way for Muslims to move forward is to recreate the era of educational prowess. Advance in academia, sciences (all of them), arts(fine and other), re-learn our true world history. Excel in understanding of Qu'ran as an applicable guidance within each and every aspect of our lives and being.
Our collective vision is marred in this era of history. Each one of us has a vision impairment of some degree. Meaning we need to revert ourselves back to the Qu'ran and Sunnah, having layed our foundations upon solid ground can we build ourselves up with education and knowledge practically/academically. We need to become competitive in all the markets of the world as Muslims. Become self-aware and self confident in our skins, our identities, our ethnicities our deen.
I would sincerely like to say for atleast the next 100 years we need to forget the white-man, the West, the non-muslim and simply concentrate on strengthening ourselves, the Muslims worlwide.
Get ourselves out of the ashes and into the light.
Become a collective pheonix that all others would aspire to become, flock towards, or at the very least question with an intention to understand the secret of our success.
