For the past few centuries, the impact of nationalism had been discussed widely by scholars both in the
Western and the Muslim world in various perspectives. Some authors claimed that nationalism had caused
a lot of conflicts and wars among the nations. On the other hand, some others argued that nationalism was
a binding force which stabilized the fragmented territories of nation-states with the sentiments of
nationalism. This paper attempts at analyzing Badiuzzaman Said Nursi’s approach towards the issue of
nationalism. He did not merely criticize nationalism; he offered a better way through his approach to a
sociology of Islam. Nursi explains and advocates for positive forms of social solidarity and cohesion that
elevate a group of people to noble action, and provides the Islamic grounding for that position. Within the
various conflicts afflicted around the world today, Nursi’s ideas of nationalism and social solidary are seen
relevant and necessary in context.
