It can be rightly said that orientalism’ method of research on Islam has also
been the method of Islamists in their relations to basic Islamic texts as a
parallel situation of backwardness of Muslims in the field of science. This
method, in fact an anti-method, is based on each researcher’s drawing a
conclusion by reasoning on particular evidences, regardless the question if
he/she is able to have a sufficient scientific background. How much para
doxical it may seem, this new method, finally, has been the most common
method of every modern Islamist movements ranging from the most chal
lenging rationalist-textualist ones to historicist apologist ones
