Abstract

This research dealt with the reality of Islamic culture as a scientific discipline, moving from the general meaning of culture to the academic meaning of Islamic culture, and between the trends of understanding among students, the first trend tends to obtain knowledge of Islam as a way of life that controls the understanding of values, systems and thought in Islamic culture and criticizes the human heritage to show the superiority of the system of Islam, and the second trend tends to study Islamic culture as the culture of Muslims at some point in history, to monitor their progress and delay and when their commitment to Islam.

The research touched on the importance of Islamic culture, its objectives, stages of its inception and codification, and a chapter on the fields of study in which researchers can accomplish master's and doctoral research through my experience in training and supervision, and to help students to innovate in this very important discipline.

The research concluded that the Islamic culture is not limited to general knowledge about Islam, and the response to intellectual suspicions thrown at it by its enemies, but goes beyond that to study the reality of the situation that searches for the reasons for the delay of Muslims and the factors of their civilizational resurgence.
