The Role of Religion in the Constitution of Civilisations and the Civilisation of Islam

Öz

Each society demands to develop, to increase, and to progress. In this process, some societies come up in a level which they could address to other societies by developing themselves. This also shows the rank of development of the society in question. So the civilisations are constituted according to that rank of development. There are materialistic and spiritual components which are forming the civilisations. The materialistic ones are geography, science, and technology, whereas the spiritual ones are social, cultural, religious, aesthetic, and artistic, etc. The fact of religion is one of the spiritual components. It has a significant and important position in the constitution of civilisations taking into consideration both its own structure and the structure of societies. The Islam has a civilisation constructing structure from the point of its principles. Quran, sunnah, and the Islamic thought which the Muslims put forth as connected with them constituted its theoretical structure, while its practice originates from the life of the Muslims throughout the history inspired from the Prophet’s own character
