Globalization and capitalism Syed Sadatullah Husaini says that although
Islam stands for globalization and universal brotherhood, modern
globalization is a tool of exploitation that creates economic and social inequality. Globalization has resulted in the monopoly of Western cultural and ethical values and has undermined the political sovereignty of the
national states.
Feminism and women Syed Husaini is critical of both traditional
Muslim societies and modern Western societies for their treatment of women. According to him, traditional Muslim societies have not given women their due place and rights as stipulated by
Islam, while the modern West has snatched femininity and the very essence of womanhood from women in lieu of equality.
Muslim politics in India Sadat argues that the right path for Muslims in a pluralistic society such as India is to engage in healthy dialogue with majority non-Muslim communities and contribute in a positive manner to nation-building. He has been critical of conspiracy theories and ghettoized politics. He has always urged fellow Muslims to develop positive mental attitudes and strengthen the communication channels with the majority community in
India.
Postmodernism In an exclusive paper, Syed has argued that
postmodernism is a logically incorrect notion and it is an extreme reaction to
modernism. According to him, the position of Islam that divinely revealed truths are absolute and all other truths are relative is a perfectly balanced notion that is free from the contradictions of postmodernism. He has supported the
transmodernism notion of
Ziauddin Sardar, and argued that Islam is a transmodern reality.
Right to Education Act The Indian parliament has passed the Right to Education Act (RTE). It holds the government responsible for providing education to every citizen of the country. Criticizing the RTE act, Mr. Syed said that it has negated minorities' constitutional rights and that Muslims will not be able to run their religious educational institutions and
madrasas. == Books and articles ==
