The theses on the Islamization of knowledge are in their own framework an answer to this question. The thesis of Islamization of knowledge, which should be evaluated within the framework of efforts to reach information that can be an alternative to the West, has both modern and post-modern features. On the other hand, it becomes important how this thesis will respond to the Western perspective and knowledge hegemony, which is getting stronger and gaining a global effect, and has influenced various civilization basins of the world. Today, the fact that the West has gained a global influence requires an alternative epistemic construction to have a global address.
