The novels seek remedies of the social corruption caused by the Western mentality, while also drawing the perspective of an portrait of islamic intellectual identity. In this study, through the novels Bize Nasıl Kıydınız and Yol which were written between 1980-2000 the answers of Islamist intellectuals to modern life, their proposals for the current and future and the problems of the Islamic identity they built in this direction will be examined.
