Journal Title: Journal of Islamic Thought and Civilization (JITC) - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 0
Abstract
Natural resources, infrastructure and human resources play an important role in the development of a country. It is a worldwide proven fact that the development of a nation depends on availability of natural resources (24%), infrastructure (16%) and human resources that add 60%. In the present sociopolitical and economic scenario of the world, the block of Muslim countries is recognized as developing or under developed despite being rich in the natural resources on the Earth as well as being blessed with abundant human resources. This paper gives a full reflection of natural resources, infrastructure and human resources of the Muslim world as compared to the rest of the world. It highlights the root causes for the prevalent miserable state of the Muslim Ummah. It also presents a model for the training, retraining and development of human resources of the Muslim world as a remedial measure to stand as part of the developed world.
