Islam at the Crossroads is a book written by Muhammad Asad. The book originally published in Delhi and Lahore in 1934, and was later reprinted by Dar Al-Andulas in 1982 with an additional note by the author.

The book is basically a plea to Muslims to avoid blind imitation of Western social forms and values, and to try to preserve instead their Islamic heritage[2] which once upon a time had been responsible for the glorious, many-sided historical phenomenon comprised in the term "Muslim civilization". Asad dedicates the book to "the Muslim youth of today in hopes that it may be of benefit."[3]
