A great thinker does not necessarily have to discover a master idea but has to rediscover and to affirm a true but forgotten, ignored or misunderstood master idea and interpret it in all the diverse aspects of thought not previously done, in a powerful and consistent way, despite surrounding ignorance and opposition. This criterion we think would include all prophets and their true followers among the Muslim scholars. He is both a great and original thinker who brings new meanings and interpretations to old ideas, thereby providing both continuity and originality to the important intellectual and cultural problems of his time and through it, of mankind. Thus, the brilliant interpretations of scholars and sages like Al-Jazari and Mull Sandra then, and Iqbal and Alcatraz now, deserve to be recognized and acknowledged as manifesting certain qualities of greatness and originality.

And Adam towards language means the recognition and acknowledgement of the rightful and proper place of every word in a written or uttered sentence so as not to produce a dissonance in meaning, sound and concept. Literature is called habitat in Islam precisely because it is seen as the keeper of civilization, the collector of teachings and statements that educate the self and society with Adam such that both are elevated to the rank of the cultured man (insane Adam) and society.

In a proper Islamic University, far 'ain knowledge which represents the permanent intellectual and spiritual needs of the human soul--should form the core curriculum, and should be made obligatory to all students. Far Fatah knowledge--reflecting societal needs and global trends--is not obligatory to all, but must be mastered by and adequate number of Muslims to ensure the proper development of the Community and to safeguard its proper place in world affairs. The far 'ain knowledge shall include knowledge of the traditional Islamic sciences such as the Arabic language, metaphysics, the Qur'an and Hadith, ethics, the Shari'ah sciences, and the history of Islam. Consonant with our position that these far 'ain sciences are not static but dynamic, they should be continuously studied, analyzed, and applied in relation to the far Fatah sciences; i.e. the fields of their specialization.

The concept of ta'did, if properly understood and competently explicated, is the correct concept of education in Islam, and not ta'LIM or Mariyah, which are currently in vogue among Muslims all over the world. This is because ta'did already includes within its conceptual structure the elements of knowledge ('ILM), instruction (ta'LIM), and good breeding (Mariyah).
