A SATANIC SCHEME TO HURT RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT BY PLAYFUL ATTITUDE OF THE WEALTHY

“Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabians — whoever believes in God and the Last Day and does good, they shall have their reward from their Lord. And there will be no fear for them, nor shall they grieve.” (V- 2:62)

It is misuse and abuse of world liberty or freedom of expression in the western culture. As continuation of my topic, I will add that irrespective of race, religion, sex, status or wealth, the freedom and liberty of expression has logical limitation in expression too as my freedom has is limits till others’ freedom starts and no one can dictate or hurt others’ rights in the civilized world but unfortunately money appears to be law of the democratic, educated world.

Western liberalism’s own interpretation of religion in insulting with dirty sketches of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) along with remarks of the state president has created hatred in the Muslim world. Like Jesus and Moses, Muhammad is also the respected messenger, as they all are the follower of Abrahimic religion of monotheism. Western intellectuals used the concept of liberty beyond human limitation. Such confrontation can lead to extremism and religious rivalry in the minority foreigners to prove Islamophobia in such countries. It looks like a satanic plan as these trouble-creators take life as fun and pleasure without a sound definite goal. They enjoy teasing other faiths and exciting them for a reaction to prove that they were right in ridiculing the Muslims. Moreover, they are involved in getting attention like a spoiled child. Such misconception puts world peace at stake, leading toward undesired extremism as social media debates can add more frustration in Muslims living abroad in such countries.

It is human nature that when he is weak in sources and struggling from hand to mouth, he acts sober, goal-oriented, and religiously meek with patience and often is worried how to meet his basic needs. Whereas one who has flourishing wealth with power and authority to control others’ lives acts like an arrogant egoist without caring about others’ rights, feelings, faith or attitudes, acting as a superman on earth. So, under suppression when the peace-loving citizens react, they use power to curb their peaceful life with legal suits, etc.

Globally, in the capitalist western countries the aggressors who create extremism often make fun of such subordinate class by imposing their concepts and threaten others’ freedom by ridiculing their religion as they act as no one can touch them. Unfortunately, under rivalry of Islamophobia, burning holy Qur’an and insulting the Holy Prophet (PBUH) with disgracing sketches, insulting Muslim women with hijab and targeting Muslim settlers has become the common practice in the western civilized capitalist countries whose researchers are considered the genius of the world in the developing countries. It is a tragedy that Islam means peace-loving people, respecting others’ prophets and holy books as a part of faith; Muslim’s sentiments are injured every year as remarked with insult. It may be due to their poor presentation of Qur’anic message without a model of Muhammad (PBUH). Perhaps, even Muslim-born intellectuals are impressed by the western-oriented thoughts in Muslim countries and name it preaching against imposed knowledge about human psychology.

One of the main reasons of anti-Islamic moment is the speed with which Islam is spreading in these countries. So, they attempt to defame it through blasphemous sketches and harassing, even though the converted people who entered Islam after studying Qur’an with meaning are more strong and committed in practicing it. According to Michael Lipka and Conard Hacket, “In the next half century or so, Christianity’s long reign as the world’s largest religion may come to an end, according to a just –related report that builds on Pew Research Center’s original population growth projection for the religious groups. Indeed, Muslims will grow more than twice as fast as the overall world population between 2015 and 2060 and, in the second half of this century, will likely surpass Christian the world’s largest religious group.”

In Muslim countries since the Prophet’s time, all types of religion were respected and provided security on their festivals through government representation as a person with full rights of a citizen. It is stated that a true Muslim must respect other religions, as directed in V-6:108,”And insult not those whom they (disbelievers) worship besides Allah, lest they insult Allah wrongfully without knowledge. Thus We have made fair-seeming to each people its own doings; then to their Lord is their return and He shall then inform them of all that they used to do.”

It is quoted that Islam is a continuation of Abrahimic religions as common in Jews and Christian, so one must have full faith in them, as repeated in V-2:284-285,” To Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth, and whether you disclose what is in your own selves or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills. And Allah is Able to do all things. The Messenger (Muhammad) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)."

The question emerges why do people snub others’ rights and apply freedom of expression like a wild animal as rule of the jungle. The psychological analysis of mental functioning of such mad people is that when a person is overwhelmed with severe Id impulses, he loses senses and reacts like an extremist (abnormal) due to over self-confidence with superego, without knowing the facts of his end result. History is full of such leaders, nations, civilization, gangsters and trouble makers which have met worst ends. So, the reward is for the righteous in deeds, V-18:30,”Verily! As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, certainly! We shall not suffer to be lost the reward of anyone who does his (righteous) deeds in the most perfect manner.”

 Islam is moderate, disciplined and practical in nature. It is for daily life guidelines against extremism and directs to follow professional activities like in business, but with rules and not to trick other people through corruption or fraud, rather to help the deprived class to grow up respectably in the social system. Qur’an stresses to apply reason, observation and present knowledge with wisdom, as stated in V-16:125,” Invite (mankind, O Muhammad) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.”

Instead of considering Islam an outdated faith based on preaching, it is the duty of the intellectuals, scholars, educationists and psychologists in Muslim countries to conduct research by collaboration with current research. So, instead of condemning their own rich data of human nature, they may involve the younger generation by introducing the knowledge of the Creator based on scientific tools (Yashhadoon, Yaqloon, Yatafaqroon, Yalamoon, Yatadabroon etc.) revealed by the Creator (1,450 years ago) about His privileged creature (human beings) with logic. It is based on the human functioning process {(Nafse Ammarah (Id),{Nafse Lowama (Ego) and {Nafse Mutmaina (Superego)} and human limits in the life span. It is their professional task to seek the hidden dimensions of Psyche (Ruh/spirit) that is an invisible power (like electricity) that can travel in time and space. This concept was ridiculed but the current IT and artificial intelligence have proved it as a reality. This is just like a specialist sitting in Houston can kill the target person in caves/hilly area of Afghanistan without any visible support at the spot.

In fact, Islam is just a continuation of holy religion, as clarified in V-42:12-13 “To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth, He enlarges provision for which He wills, and straitens (it for which He wills). Verily! He is the All-Knower of everything. He (Allah) has ordained for you the same religion (Islam) which He ordained for Nuh (Noah), and that which We have inspired in you (O Muhammad), and that which We ordained for Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moseys) and 'Iesa (Jesus) saying you should establish religion (i.e. to do what it orders you to do practically), and make no divisions in it (religion) (i.e. various sects in religion). Intolerable for the Mushrikun, is that to which you (O Muhammad) call them. Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills, and guides unto Himself who turns to Him in repentance and in obedience.”
