Abstract

Relations between East and West in modern scholarly studies have long been dominated by Orientalism, which positions the East as an object of analysis and places it in a subordinate relationship to the West. As a critical response to this dominance, Occidentalism emerges as an approach that examines the West from non-Western perspectives in a reflective and critical manner. Ismail Raji Al-Faruqi is one of the contemporary Muslim thinkers who holds a strategic position within this discourse, particularly through his critique of the secular rational foundations that underpin modern Western civilization. This study aims to analyze Al-Faruqi’s Occidentalist perspective in criticizing Western secular rationality and its implications for the crisis of modern civilization. The research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach, focusing on an analysis of Al-Faruqi’s major works and other relevant literature. The findings indicate several key points: first, Western secularism is regarded by Al-Faruqi as the primary cause of the dichotomy between religion, science, and ethics; second, secular rationality is considered to have failed to provide a transcendent foundation and moral purpose for human life; third, Western epistemological hegemony has generated a global humanitarian and moral crisis; and fourth, the principle of tawḥīd is proposed as an alternative, integrative, and holistic paradigm for civilizational development.
