| Summary: | This article examines the development of the practices and beliefs of religion in Islamic countries, starting from the Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties up to the present day. It highlights the continued influence of Sharia-based administration and the difficulties faced by secular and liberals using qualitative research methodology. The study commences with an examination of early Islamic clans, such as the Umayyads and the Abbasids. The Umayyads were renowned for their immense power and their efforts to consolidate Islamic administration. Abbasids were a family that made notable contributions to science and culture while also exerting power over religion. The research aims to explore how these historical periods established fundamental principles and behaviours that still have an impact on contemporary Islamic political traditions. Progressing in a sequence of events, the paper examines the contemporary political situations of nations such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey under Erdogan, and Pakistan. It emphasizes their commitment to religious legislation and their differing levels of adoption of modern progressive ideas. The paper explores the socio-political processes that define modern Islamic communities, including traditionalism, hostility towards opposition, and a tendency towards autocratic administration. The paper suggests promoting a healthy religious perspective, including campaigning for acceptance, encouraging debate within spiritual platforms, and combining contemporary learning with traditional beliefs. These strategies seek to find a balance between traditional Islamic values and the requirements of modern global issues, promoting a peaceful coexistence of religious beliefs and societal advancement.
