One part of the argument is therefore an effort to disassociate Islam from any hints of Arab particularism; Winter even calls Islam an "un-Arabian religion". because it condemns such practices as 'the worship of I Al-"Uzza i ...prideful boasting, and walking naked around the House". Mark Sedgwick drew attention to the radically anti-modern Traditionalist School, a Western esoteric movement initiated by René Guénon that calls for the retrieval of a spiritual wisdom found in all religions but lost in modernity.
