| Tiivistelmä: | The term "Islamic science" contains within itself many of the tensions that affect Islam as it faces the future, since science as currently understood is historically rooted in Christianity, with recent practice having secularized science. A complex metaphysical relationship is found between monotheism and the development of science. It is crucial, because monotheism is the common element of the three great religions that have been closely associated with the historical evolution of occidental science. The developments through the rise of secularization, the decline of scientism, and monotheism and polytheism in the "post-scientific age" are tracked. |
