The major task before the Muslim leaders and thinkers today is to rekindle that flame of faith in the hearts of Muslims. They should do in this respect all that the early Muslims did, or the companions, and at the same time avail themselves fully of all the opportunities the modern age has put into their hands. The Qur’an and the Sunnah can still revitalize the withered arteries of the Islamic World. Their study and influence still fire one with the desire to smash the citadel of Ignorance. They have a rousing quality about them than can spur a slumbering people into a new life. There will then be born in every Muslim home high-souled men who will fully correspond to the description contained in the following verses of the Qur’an: “They were youths who believed in their Lord, and We advanced them in guidance. We gave strength to their hearts; behold, they stood up and said ‘Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and of the earth; never shall we call upon any God other than Him; if we did, we should indeed have uttered enormity.” (Al Kahf; 13-14)
