ABSTRACT

Due to the limited scope of this paper, our main concern will be directed at interpreting some of the issues currently discussed with regard to globalization in the light of Nursi’s Risale-i Nur. The relevance of Nursi’s teachings constitutes important grounds for examining the principles of globalization and their impact on Muslim societies. Globalization poses challenges for the main determinants of the Islamic worldview by diffusing secular ideas and spreading undifferentiated cultural values.
