-Global Challenges for Muslim Community-
Globalization has a big influence to Muslim populations and it brings huge impacts to the world in every single aspect. Plus, global economy is one of the greatest things happened directly proportional to the rise of globalization. The concept of globalization brings the culture of being competitive among people and surely Muslims are included. Countries around the world compete with each other in order to gain the superpower as the top global nations. Though America is believed to be weaker in the near future, but still its influence on the global economy will probably make them to remain strong. This can be seen through the efforts made by the United States nation showing their ability to resolve global crises and their soft power in the field of economy (New Straits Times, 2012). In that matter, they will be able to fight against incoming competitors to surpass them so that they will remain being the first among equal. However, for Muslims communities,this phenomenon has become a challenge for them as the chances in dominating the global economic sector still far away. As Muslims have lesser chances to be as one of the top rank countries, they tend to follow and adapt what have been posed by the Western. Instead of creating an innovative ideas and great productivity, these issues will create an unhealthy culture among Muslims communities where they will beleft behind in economic-based sector and thus, becoming passive communities. In short, less attention given to Muslims has actually become a minor obstacle for this population to move forward towards success.
In addition to that, most Muslims who are living in underdeveloped countries are facing a big problem of dominating the world economics even to get involvedin the global economic sectors is another issue. As a result to fewer chances provided for Muslims in this sector, this will only reduce or limit
