The article discusses the reasons behind the delay of Arabs and Muslims in keeping pace with the march of civilizational progress. It points out that the last three centuries have witnessed a neglect of science and knowledge due to the prohibition of printing presses in the Ottoman Empire until 1727, as well as the absence of scientific and intellectual renaissance. This contributed to the entrenchment of underdevelopment and rising illiteracy. The article emphasizes that Europe experienced two major revolutions: the invention of the printing press in 1450 and the Protestant Reformation in 1517, both of which led to profound changes in thought and science. Meanwhile, Arab civilization continued to rely on outdated concepts and resisted modernization. The piece highlights that contemporary Arab thinkers, such as Abdullah Al-Aroui and Malik Bennabi, believe that the reasons for underdevelopment relate to the inability to build a civilization reliant on human capacity and thought. It stresses that civilization begins within the realm of ideas and grows through resource organization and proper investment in people, not merely through wealth or riches.
