PARADIGMA TRANSMISI ILMU PENGETAHUAN ISLAM KE RUANG PERADABAN GLOBAL

Abstract

In the 5^th or 6^th century BCE, the Greek had established a communication network with the ancient East, especially with Egypt and Babylonia. The fusion between Greeks and the Eastern thought was more and more seen after Alexander's expansion in Egypt, so that Alexandria there became a center of melting between the Western and Eastern civilization. After the decline of Islamic civilization, there was likely separation between religion and reason as well as ignoring of Western civilization. For re-advancing of Islamic civilization, there are some steps can be passed i.e. rapprochement that is usually so-called epistemological re-integration.
