===== Islamic civilization never grew in a vacuum. =====
Each era reinterpreted revelation through the conceptual tools of its age:
* The Arabs gave it the language of poetry and tribal ethics.
* The Persians gave it bureaucracy, theology, and mysticism.
* The Greeks (via translations) gave it logic and philosophy.
* The Turks and Mongols gave it imperial structure and military order.
* The Indians gave it syncretic spirituality and scholastic pluralism.

The Qur’an stayed the same text — but its meaning environment kept shifting.

So there’s no reason to think that adaptation stopped in the 13th century.
If Islam once absorbed the Persian Empire, it can — and must — learn to live within the modern secular order too.
