This article is a comparative study between the ideas of Hassan Hanafi, and Mohammed Arkoun.
Hanafi is including Islamic innovators who criticizes Islamic tradition and Western civilization for liberation Muslims of The degeneration and also provide a solution for the future of Islamic societies. He believes that the full adherence to Western models for Compensation of Muslims Backwardness of is not helpful and the distance between theory and practice in the Muslim world has increased and the only way to save the Muslims from degenerating is the link between Islamic theory and practice.Mohammed Arkoun as another of Islamic prominent neo-thinkers criticizes Islamic tradition because of its nature of the non-historicity and he doesn't know Western secularism as a complete model for Muslim societies due to ignore the religious dimension. Arkoun offers his solution in the form of historic Islamic ideas that his suggestion can open a way to criticize the Islamic tradition by highlighting the rationally aspects of Islam religion. Hanafi Hassan and Mohammed Arkoun jointly use of Islamic tradition criticism and Western Civilization in order to responding to this question: What should we do for emancipation of degeneration?
