The Meaning of Life in the Modern World

In The Meaning of Life in the Modern World, researcher Abdullah Bin Abdulrahman Al-Wahaibi delivers a profound philosophical and analytical examination of one of modernity's most pressing dilemmas: the crisis of existential meaning. The book deconstructs the intellectual and cultural forces—such as secularism, individualism, and materialism—that led modern society away from transcendent and spiritual frameworks. Al-Wahaibi presents a comparative inquiry into how human purpose, suffering, and morality are defined in modern philosophical thought versus the Islamic worldview. By framing human existence around stewardship and divine worship, the author proposes a cohesive epistemological paradigm to overcome modern nihilism.

Because it offers a rigorous conceptual critique of modern nihilism and spiritual emptyness, providing readers with a solid epistemological model for grounding human purpose and existential meaning.

For scholars of Islamic thought and modern philosophy, researchers in cultural critique, and readers engaged with existential questions and the critique of modernity.
