Abstract

This study partcularly surveys the trends which Islam follows in the big cites. It is emphasized that the Islam our naton practce is dominated by politcal and historical, socio-cultural, socio-economical and psychological factors. Problems stemming from history are proving complexity and difculty for they have not been addressed throughout history properly. Thus the gap between the individual and state and also the distance between the state and religion, the unique need of human being, is growing. The narrowing of this gap as quickly as possible is closely associated with the diagnosis of the problems and the solutons to be applied. I, as a sociologist of religion, tried to diagnose the problem and also propose the measures to be taken.
