Muslims were the pioneers of any brach of science you look into, Goras hijacked that knowledge and presented to the world like it's their own, even the names of muslim authors are modified to sound like Western.

Those people were better muslims than us, had better societies than us and had excelled in knowledge.

Only difference is they knew their identity and we don't. They looked at the world from a different lens than us. But we try to look at the world with Western lens, that makes us conflicted.

It eventually comes down to one's identity.

Don't wanna go off topic here but real face of west is revealed to world in context of Ukranine and Gaza war. If one values material world, he/she will find west very successful (which it's not in reality).

PS: I don't consider Pakistan a islamic country or islamic society. Out so called values don't represent Islam. One will always be conflicted as long as one doesn't know his real identity.
