What makes this sect special, which consists of multiple groups, movements, features, qualities, and demonstrations, is the fact that it has been predicted by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and he (peace be upon him) has prescribed them and told us some of their qualities and characteristics, such as they’re young in age, their shallow understanding of religion, that they make takfir of Muslims – accusing other Muslims of being apostates, that they shed the blood of Muslims justified by their unjust takfir, and that they rebel against Muslim rulers as they don’t recognize them or accuse them as having become apostates. At the same time, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has given permission to fight against them and kill them. This last part is very relevant to the topic that I am trying to tackle on this essay.

Indeed, scholars have written books and delivered thousands of hours of lectures about the description of this sect and their appearance in our time, and how harmful they are. So, from a theological point of view, it is a well treated topic. Also from a political perspective, the western experts of terror, politicians, intelligent service experts, professors, and journalists have treated it extensively, but from their political point of view.  

As we can see from the description of this sect, it is loaded with political aspects: rebellion, killing, accusing Muslims for being apostates, and murder. I believe this, i.e., the political aspect, is exactly what makes them special and that’s why they, or this phenomenon, are exploited by the US Government, the British Monarchy, and the Saudi Government.

Considering that this sect is mostly political, but justified by theology, it is only fair to treat it also from a political perspective, not the way the westerners approach it, but from a Muslim’s point of view. So, we Muslims should bring into the equation the political landscape of our time in order to better understand this sect and what stands behind it, who exploits it and why, and how we can defend ourselves from such a harmful ideology and political game.

THE POLITICAL BACKGROUND

To begin with, a confusion regarding this topic rises from the fact that Muslim lands have been occupied and colonized by the British Empire at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries, which was concluded with the fall of the Ottoman Empire during WWI. Again, having a clear picture of the political and historical background of the Muslim world in the last one or two centuries will help us make sense of all this big fuss about Kharijites and their political exploitation. Politics plays a much bigger role behind the scenes than we think, and coincidently, this sect is all about politics.

Thus, the fall of the Ottoman Empire had multiple effects on the British Empire and the Muslim world. It was the last power to oppose the rising British Empire, so the latter virtually became the political leader of the world; in other words, the British Empire shaped the world politically in the 20th century after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. It was the one which formed nation states and drew the borders; it was the one that benefitted the most from WWI and WWII; it gave rise to all the political ideologies and movements of the 20th century, such as communism, fascism, democracy and the likes; it formed the international organizations such as the UN, NATO, Warsaw Pact, the League of Arab States, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and the most modern one, BRICS.

This is the most confusing part, no doubt. There are so many states, countries and borders, political parties, international organizations and so much political fuss to the extent that when one tries to simplify things, they look stupid. However, this confusion, in my view, comes from the fact that people nowadays aren’t aware of how political power works, who rules and how they rule. It is not easy to know such things, especially given the fact that schools have a monopoly on children to shape their view about the world. Schools are centralized and heavily regulated. It is not a surprised that what a child learns in Canada, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria or Cuba, for instance, a child in China learns the same. The uniformity and centralization of the educational system, no matter how chaotic and diverse might seem, have made some common-sense knowledge disappear or seem strange, such as the understanding of power and politics.

In this regard, I would cite part of one verse from the Quran to simplify the whole confusion, which is caused by the existence of many countries, states, international organizations, fake wars, and massive propaganda in order to cover the political power of the British Empire. Allah says in the Quran [قُلِ ٱللَّهُمَّ مَـٰلِكَ ٱلْمُلْكِ تُؤْتِى ٱلْمُلْكَ مَن تَشَآءُ وَتَنزِعُ ٱلْمُلْكَ مِمَّن تَشَآءُ  ], which translates as “Say, ‘O Allah, the King of Kings, you give kingdom (power) to whoever you want, and you pluck it from whoever you want.” [Quran, 3:26]

So, clearly from an Islamic perspective, one of the characteristics of power is that is removed or plucked, not given up because the British Empire decided to do so. No one leaves power because they are tired of ruling. By its very nature, power continues to be held by a person until someone else takes it from them by force. Power is not granted. There could be a thousand reasons why people don’t resign and don’t give up power. Probably it has to do with state secrets, or with the fact that when one is in power, part of the job is to wrong or imprison or kill people – to have enemies for the right or for the wrong reason, so once they resign, they will become object of revenge. Nevertheless, this is not part of this essay. It is enough to mention that power is not granted by people, nor is it given up.

In fact, even the British playwright Shakespeare, who treats politics extensively in his tragedies, he considers the resignation from power a curse. This is the main theme of “King Lear,” where the king divided his kingdom as a gift to his three daughters, and the result was catastrophic; he ended up homeless. So, Shakespeare captures this idea of power resignation very well, and the final message of the tragedy is that King Lear made a big mistake. Nevertheless, it is not a matter of prescription – whether to resign from power or not, it is a natural phenomenon related directly to its nature.

Power works similar to a pride of lions. When a new lion take over a pride, the first thing it does is to kill all the young cubs. Therefore, the old lion will do everything possible to cling to the throne. Likewise, when a new ruler takes over a country, the first thing they do is to eliminate the old elite – whoever could potentially challenge the new ruler. This is part of human nature and part and parcel of power.

Unfortunately, this is exactly where the British Empire has confused people. The world is organized politically in a way that it makes it impossible for masses to understand who holds power and what’s going on.

For clarification, the resignation or the change of prime ministers or presidents does not constitute an example that people leave power peacefully. They are not those who hold the political power; rather, they are the next appointed employees of the British Monarchy. The power which I am referring to is the British Monarchy or the British Empire, not the façade and grotesque elections, which are invented by the British experts to increase confusion even more.

THE BRITISH EMPIRE

Historically speaking, the British Empire became an undisputed ruler of the world at the end of WWI – the empire on which the sun never sets. While Europe was united and ruled more or less by the same dynasty, including Germany, Russia, and the small Principality of Greece, for example, it was only the Ottoman Empire the biggest barrier for the British to rule the world.

As a result, it was of paramount importance for the British Empire and all the united Europe to destroy the Ottoman Empire, put an end to the Islamic caliphate and rule Muslims. While the internal problems, corruption and degradation were definitely a major reason to bring to an end the Ottoman Empire, the betrayal of the Arab people was another determining factor. Many Arab tribes were deceived by the British and revolted against their own empire. From an Islamic perspective, what such Arab people did was an action of Kharijites.

In 1924, the Islamic caliphate was abolished. The Ottoman caliph was deposed and the dynasty ceased to hold power. For the first time since the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), Muslims woke up without a state and without a caliph. It was one of the saddest days for the Muslims Ummah. Officially, the British Empire took over the Islamic world.

So far, I am merely underlining the historical fact that officially the British Empire controlled the world in 1920s. It formed the League of Nations. It formed nation states, and it divided the Islamic world in a way that it was convenient to its political control and what served its interests. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, for example, was formed by the British Empire in 1932, and later many other small states were formed in the Arabian Peninsula.

WWII, which was one of the most deceiving wars the world has ever seen, was orchestrated very well by the British Empire, and it ended by a seemingly withdrawal of the latter, and this is the most confusing part. The fact the British Empire chose to strategically ‘disappear’ and ‘withdraw,’ this does not mean that the Empire came to an end. We confuse its strategy with the reality. Even officially, it did not lose WWII, nor was it damaged.

The British Empire was not defeated or attacked. WWII was a theater and a very well orchestration, no matter how many people might have died. After all, communism, Nazism and the Italian fascism were merely political instruments of the British Empire; they were by no means its enemies.

The British Empire has not fallen yet. The British Monarchy has not lost its power. Political power is taken by force, not by a self-proclamation of political withdrawal or slogans and propaganda. It is an obvious fact that the world today is controlled by the British Dynasty.

MUSLIMS UNDER OCCUPATION

This was an introduction to emphasize one simple truth: after the fall of the Ottoman Empire – the last Muslim caliphate, Muslims fell under the British control. The introduction was a logical argument to established the fact that Muslims today are under the British occupation, regardless of having states, countries, borders, elections, kings, and governments. Again, we should not confuse the reality of things with the strategy of the British Empire and how it chooses to rule. The formation of states and allowing the existence of so-called independent countries does not mean that the British Empire does not control the Muslim world.

On the other hand, Muslims practice a religion which is not compatible with the British politics and the ideology of Secularism, and above all, they cannot accept a non-Muslim ruler impose their laws, politics, and set their agendas. In addition, Muslims have always a political and religious need to have their own state in order to practice their religion fully. The Quranic verse, [وَلَن يَجْعَلَ ٱللَّهُ لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ سَبِيلًا], which translates as, “And Allah will never grant the disbelievers a way over the believers,” is exactly related to this very topic, which means that Muslims cannot be ruled by non-Muslims. Also, Muslims come from a long history of a well-established civilization. That’s why, for the most part the British Empire has had no choice but to rule the Islamic world through Muslim puppet leaders. We cannot imagine a British Governor rule Egypt or Jordan, for instance.

Therefore, for the British Empire to rule Muslims has not been an easy task. No matter what, Muslims cannot accept a foreign ruler. For this reason, the British Empire has resorted to many strategies in order to effectively rule them and make sure that they won’t be able to form a serious uprising against the enemy.

Some strategies, in my view, have been: the formation of so-called independent states ruled by puppet Muslim rulers who are appointed by the British Empire; granting certain Muslim countries a special function, such as Saudi Arabia, which has tried to somehow play the role of an Islamic global leader; the formation of the State of Israel as a permanent distraction for Muslims – instead of noticing that their own countries are merely British territories and instead of focusing on their real enemy, which is the British Empire, they are distracted by the Palestinian conflict.

Another policy or strategy that the British Empire has used in order to rule Muslims is the constant oppression or elimination of a certain category of people, such as all those who potentially could grow and become a political problem, or at least that is its objective. This could have been realized by a compilation of lists of all people who have to be oppressed, then isolated, and also by restricting their chances of success in academic careers or business. However, the best way of neutralizing the political effect of such people is by getting rid of them altogether.

Indeed, one of the most important strategies of the British Empire for maintaining its control over Muslims has been and continues to be wars, executions, killing, and murder. It is not a coincidence that most of the wars of the 20th and the 21st centuries have been waged by the UK Government, the US Government, the Canadian Government and the Russian or the USSR Government – which make up the core part of the British Empire, against Muslims. This is simply a verifiable fact. The last backstabbing war took place in Syria, where the western countries as well as Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and China cooperated in order to kill Muslims, not to change a regime in Syria. This shows once again that the world is not divided at all when it comes to the killing of Muslims.

THE NEED TO KILL

In my view, if not wiping out Islam altogether, the British Empire has considered it a necessary political measure to regularly get rid of a certain category of Muslims and gradually eliminate all Muslim scholars in order to guarantee its permanent control in Muslims lands, especially given the fact that oil – the key element to modern technological development, is found only in the Middle East. Oil could be just another reason, but not the main one. Extinguishing the light of Islam is the final goal of the British Empire.

In order to realize the killing of Muslims and maintain the political control, the British Empire naturally has been in need of ways or criteria in order to kill the wanted Muslims, but by avoiding a direct confrontation with them, as this could lead to a political cohesion of theirs. As I’ve mentioned many times, the British Empire could be anything but stupid. Definitely, the British military experts have studied Islam and learned very well about the history of Muslims, its different sects and groups.

Therefore, I strongly believe that the description and the example of Kharijites have provided a perfect solution for the British military experts to their problem, which is the killing of Muslims, especially given the fact that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has allowed their blood in order to save other Muslims from their rebellion.

 On one hand, it is the British Empire that needs to kill a certain category of Muslims regularly in order to maintain its power, and, on the other hand, Muslim puppet rulers have a religious right to kill Kharijites – those who rebel against them. So, the objective of the British Empire and the justified actions of Muslim puppet rulers converge perfectly on the existence of Kharijites, who are demonstrated as terrorist groups and extremists.

THE MAKING OF MODERN KHARIJITES: A FULL-FLEDGED POLITICAL INDUSTRY

Let’s suppose that there are ten thousand Muslims in Saudi Arabia, or any other Muslim country, who are categorized by the British Empire as problematic, who could have the ability to pose a political threat in the future. In order to categorize them as problematic, a number of factors are taken into consideration, such as the level of IQ, academic performance, family and tribal history, and their religious commitment and piety, for example. According to the British Empire, those people should be killed or imprisoned, otherwise they could potentially pose a political threat, not to Muslims, but to the occupier, because they will be aware of the occupation, they will speak and preach the truth, and they could use the pen instead of guns, which makes them even more dangerous.

The real challenge of the British Empire is how to get rid of them in a way that it does not lead to a bigger problem, such as an awareness of Muslims that there is a British agenda to kill them, and this could further lead to political cohesion among all Muslims of the world. So, everything has to seem legitimate because such people are innocent; they are ordinary Muslims and law-abiding citizens.

The best way to achieve this goal is by bringing into the equation Kharijites. If such people end up or are stimulated to adopt some of the qualities of Kharijites, or the definition is stretched out, especially with the help of pseudo scholars, so those people fit into the group, then their killing is perfectly legal and morally justified. In this way, the British Empire achieves its goal, the Government of Saudi Arabia appears as a hero because it is killing the Kharijites, and above all, the British occupier is not the enemy, but the ally of Saudi Arabia in the war against terrorists and extremists.

This is exactly the situation of Muslims today. They are occupied and oppressed, yet the enemy hides, and often appears as a hero, while the enemy is the elephant in the room all the time, I mean, the British Empire with all its governments: the UK Government, the US Government, the Russian Government, the Chinese Government, the Indian Government, and so on and so forth.

Muslims are killed and murdered and expelled from their lands, yet governments – which are installed by the British Empire anyway, play the hero by killing even more Muslims in order to save Muslims.

Muslims are killed and murdered in their own land by the UK, the USA and the Canadian armies, yet they are thanked by Muslim rulers for the service they have done to Islam because they’ve killed ‘Kharijites’ – young children and women.

In addition, Muslim pseudo scholars deliver lectures by explaining to us how dangerous Kharijites are and that cooperating with the strongest armies on Earth in order to kill them is necessary and heroic. In fact, I watched a Saudi scholar on YouTube saying that killing Kharijites is the biggest form of Jihad. This is very ironic because one of the characteristics of Kharijites mentioned by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is that they leave pagans alone and fight against Muslims. This is exactly what the Government of Saudi Arabia is doing: leaving the biggest enemy alone – the USA and the British Empire and killing innocent Muslims in the name of fighting against Kharijites.

The process of making Kharijites is in and of itself a political industry. The British Empire has invested heavily in it. A combination of propaganda, pseudo scholars and intellectuals, undercover spies and agents, with military, intelligence and financial  support provided for the cause, it has been possible to create a large seemingly wave of Kharijites, where willingly or unwillingly, many innocent Muslims have fallen into the trap.

Therefore, the Kharijites of our time, or the so-called Kharijites, are the making of the British Empire, not an independent political revolt of Muslims. Therefore, the claim of Saudi Arabia that it has a legitimate right to kill Muslims because the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has allowed it, is superficial and unconvincing. By no means has the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) – the mercy for the world, allowed the killing of innocent children and women, demolishing cities and towns and villages in the name of fighting Kharijites, which in this time are merely a making of the British Empire.

THE MOCKERY OF THE WAR ON TERROR

If we are a little bit sincere and honest with ourselves, we will understand that Muslims have no capacity to organize any revolt without political help. The British Empire has installed a political system in Muslim countries which guarantees an absolute control over population. The network of spies and agents that the British Empire has built makes it impossible for any group of people to pose a military threat. In addition, modern weapons, hi-tech, massive surveillance, and everything related to the nature of a modern state and the political means of control leave no room for fertile soil for Kharijites to grow.

To put things into perspective, we are not in the medieval ages when a group of people who had swords and horses could challenge the state anytime. The weapons that the state possessed were the same as the weapons people had. Today, in order to pose a real threat, people need similar weapons to what the military has, such as jet fighters, bombs, tanks, and aircraft carriers, as well as other military equipment, including intelligence service.

If people have the ability to manufacture such military equipment and machines independently from the state, the same as the manufacturing of swords, in that case we would say that military revolts are a real problem for the state. Can anyone in the right mind think that Muslims have the ability to manufacture jet fighters or other hi-tech equipment? For this reason, we can say with certainty that Kharijites, those who the Prophet Muhammad has warned us against, are not a real threat today. There is no conditions available for them to grow. There is a huge difference between the ability of people to manufacture weapons and the military advancement of modern governments. There is no comparison whatsoever. It is the same as looking for weeds in the desert where there is no vegetation in the first place.

What I mentioned is not a secret. The US Government and the British Empire know it. They know that terrorism needs conditions to grow, or at least for the public to believe so. It needs an ideology. It needs sophisticated weapons, which ordinary people cannot make. However, they have found a solution to this problem. They have created different countries for different purposes. For example, if people like myself raise the question that how is it possible that those terrorists have weapons, their answer is ready: Iran, Taliban, Ghaddafi, UFOs, North Korea, Slobodan Milosevic, Putin, Bashar al-Assad, Fidel Castro, Haftar of Libya, Hizballah, Osama bin Landen, Abu Bakar Al-Baghdadi, and if still there is no way for terrorists to have enough weapons in the eyes of the public, always there is a full load of American weapons dropped to them by ‘mistake’.

This is exactly the reason why I started off with a long introduction explaining the concept of political power and the political landscape of the world today. There is no doubt that the world is ruled by the British Empire. There is one power and one world order. Of course, it is not in the interest of the British Empire to admit this publicly because it needs countries to appear independent. An independent Iran, for example, can “supply” terrorists with weapons, and this seems legitimate in the eyes of the public only if that country appears as independent. The existence of terrorists is vital for the British Empire. It needs terrorism in order to justify the killing of Muslims.

CONCLUSION

While the world is ruled by the British Empire, regardless of its modern political demonstrations, in order to maintain its control over the Muslim Ummah, which is divided into some sixty states, it needs to get rid of a certain category of Muslims regularly. All the Muslim men who could potentially pose a political threat in the future, they have to be eliminated. The problem is that the empire needs a criterion or a justification.

In my view, the British Empire has found in the description of Kharijites the best solution, especially considering the fact that the Prophet Muhammad has given Muslim rulers permission to fight against them. However, the challenging part is that the Muslims who should be eliminated, they have to either adopt certain qualities of Kharijites, or the definition has to be stretched out so it includes them. The main point is that the killing of Muslims should always appear as the killing of Kharijites or terrorists.

Kharijites have also contributed a lot to the good reputation of Muslim rulers, especially Saudi Arabia by making it look good. The war on terror has justified everything. Saudi Arabia has had no issue to invite five hundred thousand non-Muslim soldiers to settle in the Peninsula in order to fight Muslims. Saudi Arabia has no issue to consider the USA and the UK as friends and allies while they are the biggest enemies of Islam, only because they have a shared enemy: Kharijites – innocent Muslim children and women.

The saddest part is that everything is a theater and a political game to deceive Muslims, but it is even sadder when we see countries such as Saudi Arabia play the hero, while they know very well that everything is a theater. We all know that there is no Kharijites, nor can they exist in this time and age. We all know that terrorism has been manufactured by the US Government, for example. We all know that all Muslim rulers, including Ghaddafi and Saddam Hussain, and the rulers of Saudi Arabia have been and continue to be British and American puppets. We all know that Muslims don’t even have the capacity to form terrorist groups. We all know that Iran is a British military base.

Indeed, Kharijites are not a problem. Rather, the British Empire has a problem on how to justify the killing of Muslims. It does not want to appear as if it is killing innocent Muslims, scholars, and intellectuals. The British Empire also does not want to appear as if it controls Saudi Arabia, Iran and all other Muslim countries. A visible presence of the British Empire in the Muslim lands could lead to real awareness and cohesion of the latter. So, the making of Kharijites has given a solution to all these problems.

In addition, in order to suppress any Muslim voice who speaks the truth, the making of Kharijites has provided a solution as well. Whoever speaks or raises their voice, especially against the British occupation or the injustice that Muslims face on daily basis, the Kharijite card is pulled out and thrown to their face. “You have Kharijite ideas,” is a common rebuke of some Muslims against any Muslim who is merely trying to defend themselves and trying to survive.

The majority of Muslims in the world live under tyrannical governments, especially in the West; they face daily problems in order to practice their religion and protect their families; millions of others have been left homeless by the American, Canadian and British bombs; hundreds of thousands of Muslims have died in the Mediterranean Sea fleeing wars; yet, Saudi Arabia has the audacity to accuse Muslims for being Kharijites. Have they lost their mind? Why don’t they mind their own business? Don’t they understand that they are becoming the biggest supporters of the enemy against innocent Muslims by having given themselves the ‘right’ to decide who is a Kharijite and who’s not?!

I can speak from personal experience that Saudi Arabia, for example, contributes a great deal to the making of Kharijites, not the other way around. Its stance is completely bogus and hypocritical. It is simply helping the enemy to get rid of Muslims, not fighting the Kharijites. Saudi Arabia is actively involved in propaganda, espionage, provocation and backstabbing in order to make Muslims angry so they can seem as Kharijites. This is a shame. This shows that this country in reality is not against Kharijites, but a contributor to this phenomenon.  

The truth of the matter is that Kharijites are not a problem. If terrorists exist, that’s an American or British making. It is a game of theirs. It is a political investment of theirs. Muslims don’t even have the capacity to form terrorist organizations.

Our biggest problem is the British Empire and the US Government continue to rule the world with an iron fist and oppress Muslims. They continue to control Muslims. They kill Muslims. They control our affairs. They order the imprisonment of scholars. They control our universities. They have divided us and they are increasing this division.

My brotherly advice to Muslims is to be reasonable and to stop repeating the language of the enemy. Let’s all resort to the most beautiful weapon, that is, the pen, and confront our enemies by ideas before they kill us all. At the very least, let’s not be on the side of the enemy against Muslims. Let’s not compromise the core of our religion.

My intention is not to criticize Saudi Arabia, which, nevertheless, has made positive contributions to the Muslim Ummah. However, the situation is critical and Muslims are facing a real challenge. Clarification is good for all. At the same time, I have the utmost respect for Muslim scholars and intellectuals, including the respected scholars of Saudi Arabia.

January 22, 2023

The post THE MAKING AND THE EXPLOITATION OF KHARIJITES BY THE BRITISH MONARCHY, THE US GOVERNMENT, AND SAUDI ARABIA: AN INDUSTRY OF DIRTY POLITICS appeared first on Sabri Lushi.

In order to put things into perspective, I would prefer to give an imaginary scenario, which actually is a reality for many people. Let’s suppose that one has a conflict with the government or he or she is on the list to be persecuted or discriminated, for political or ideological reasons, no less. In this case, there is a very powerful entity, which is the government, and the targeted individual. A smart government would never attack that person directly, nor would it make it clear that the attack is taking place for ideological reasons, because this makes people aware of the injustice, which, as a result, will increase social cohesion against the government – something that any unjust government fears the most. Rather, smart governments use other people to attack that individual for apparently personal reasons, while it is orchestrating everything behind the scenes, and it always appears as a hero or as the entity which is trying to ‘solve’ the problem. Governments always try their best to keep their hands clean, especially the modern secular ones.

In this particular scenario, even if the person who is being attacked starts to think carefully about the problem and why he or she is being attacked, or who else might be involved, the government will use other spies to come and distract that individual, remind them that the enemy is merely the other person, that there is nothing complicated. In fact, they even will be encouraged to not use the brain, but use violence against the adversary. Neve will they ever be reminded that actually the real enemy or the real actor who is playing behind the scenes is the government itself.

This is a very common technique used by modern governments, especially in the West, which persecutes and discriminates people, yet they like to appear clean, and democratic, and even act as heroes that are trying to help the ‘oppressed’ citizens, who are the victims. In fact, I dare say that this technique is typically used by the British Empire and its puppet governments around the world. If there is one thing which can describe the modern governments – such political entities created by the British Empire, the best, that is, the lack of responsibility. Modern governments are masters of avoiding responsibility. The whole British political system revolves around the concept of irresponsibility.

Moreover, this technique is widely used by the modern judicial system, which more or less is applied worldwide. Judges, for example, could clearly reach a verdict based on political reasons, yet they, in cooperation with the intelligence service, will coordinate everything to appear as if they have no choice, as if it is the law which conditions the verdict, while, in fact, the unlimited power that they enjoy allows them play politics. Even in such as case, when the judicial verdict is given, unjustly and based on political reasons, the intelligence service will use spies in order to distract the targeted person. Spies – who could even be family members, will tell him or her that there is nothing political in this case, that judges had no choice, or whatever, but never will they ever mention that it is the government behind and that judges are doing its biddings.

For immoral and unethical modern governments, void of any code of morality, this technique is utilized the most. Whoever has dealt with courts of law in the West, or they think that they have been targeted politically, for sure they know exactly what I am talking about. Judges and governmental employees are masters of applying such techniques. They are experts on this.

Back to the issue of Jews, The British Empire uses exactly the same technique against Muslims in a larger scale, but the logic behind it is the same. As a historical fact, the Ottoman Empire was brought down effectively during WWI by the British Empire and its puppet allies, such as France and Russia. Officially, the last Muslim caliphate was abolished on March 3, 1924. For the first time since the foundation of the prophetic state of Madinah, in 622, in the Arabian Peninsula, Muslims were defeated and their caliphate was taken away. The dissolution of the Ottoman Empire was not an ordinary matter for Muslims; rather, it broke apart one of the largest communities of the world. The British occupation of the Muslim lands did even make things worse by splitting the Muslim population into some sixty states and in each of which is assigned a puppet ruler.

In short, Muslims are under the British occupation. The people who once had give rise to one of the greatest civilizations of the world, who had contributed tremendously to the development and the advancement of the human civilization, those who practice a religion which has been strictly preserved and which encompasses every aspect of life – including the social and political and economic ones, have fallen under the British rule. At the very least, one can say that there is room for a big political struggle. On one hand, there is the British Empire which is holding so much power, more than it can afford, and, on the other hand, it is Muslims who have all the capacity to fight for freedom, and they have the political capacity to rebuild their own caliphate.

Like that corrupt government or judge that uses the technique of distraction and hiding-behind-the-scene when they persecute an individual, the British Empire uses Jews and the state of Israel against Muslims, who are conditioned to focus their attention on an imaginary or proxy enemy and forget the real one. The Palestinian conflict is disproportionally over exaggerated. The media speak about it, and the Arab leaders and many Muslim activists have the license by the British Empire to speak against Jews. So much time and energy are spent on this issue.

No one denies the fact that the Palestinian conflict is real. There are victims. Children are killed. Innocent people are imprisoned and left to starve to death. However, this is not a sufficient fact to draw the conclusion that the biggest enemy of Muslims are Jews. It is not appropriate for a Muslim, who believes in Allah and in the Last Day, to be fooled and deceived by the appearances. Muslims are required over and over again by the Quran to use their brain and to see what’s beneath the surface.

There is no doubt that Jewish soldiers are killing Muslims, but they are simply being used by the British Empire. Jews are pawns. The Jewish community is a very small community compared to Muslims. How can less than twenty million people be compared to a community of approximately two billion?! There are at least a hundred times more Muslims than Jews in the world. Jews are not even a match for Muslims. It is an insult to really say that Jews are the enemies of Muslims. Rather, our enemy is the British Empire with all its puppet states, such as the USA, EU, Russia, China etc.

To make the narrative more believable and seem real, there are books written about Jews, that they control everything. There are fake protocols spread by the British enemy to prove to Muslims that Jews have some hidden agendas against Muslims, that they want to found a state from Nile to the Euphrates, while the British Empire controls the Muslim lands from Morocco to Indonesia.

In order to make the Jewish community even scarier for Muslims, there is propaganda that portrays them as very smart people, who have on average a very high level of IQ. This is all rubbish. I would never believe that there is any community in the world which has a genetically disposition to have a higher level of IQ than others.

At least from the Islam’s perspective, all people are children of Adam. They are the same genetically speaking, regardless of their color, race or tribe. In fact, the Quran goes even further by considering a fool everyone who rejects the faith of Abraham, “And who would reject the faith of Abraham except a fool!” [Quran, 2:130]. Those who reject the faith of Abraham, which is the religion of Islam, is a fool, be they genetically Jews or non-Jews.

Conclusion:

The Jewish community is relatively a very small one, especially compared to the large community of Muslims. Historically, they have had a very good relationship with Muslims, and they’ve lived peacefully in our lands while the European Christians persecuted them. Even today, the Europeans are simply using them as pawns against Muslims in order to keep them distracted while our community and our lands have been occupied by the British Empire. For the smart British rulers, it is not in their best interest to manifest the occupation of Muslims because this leads to a cohesion of the latter. The British rulers don’t want to raise awareness against themselves.  As a result, Muslims are kept busy with imaginary enemies, such as Jews, Zionism, Nazis, UFOs, bankers, Rothchild or whatever the enemy spouts. At the same time, by emphasizing the occupation of Palestine by Jews, Muslims forget that all their lands are in reality occupied by the British Empire.

Jews could hate Muslims. This is not something strange. The Quran has reported their hatred towards Muslims, but it has also reported a bigger hatred, that of pagans towards Muslims. Jews are much better in the sight of Allah than pagans. I personally would marry a Jewish woman, as my religion allows such a thing, but Islam prohibits the marriage to pagans. Muslims should not be fools and ignorant. We have forgotten the real enemy, i.e., the British Empire, which is a pagan and atheist empire, and we are conditioned, by the enemy and our spy leaders, to focus only on Jews.

Our enemy is the British Empire. This empire has brought down our caliphate. It is this empire that has spilt our lands into small countries. It is this empire that appoints our leaders. It is this empire that controls our natural resources, economies, education and our politics. It is this empire and the US Government that have been waging permanent wars against Muslims. How can we forget something which is in front of our eyes and focus on a weak and small community of Jews, who after all are being used by the British Empire? This is not befitting for Muslims.

Is Palestine that important? Why is the media, in the West and in the Middle East, focused so much on Palestine? How come that, even though millions of Muslims and non-Muslims express their support for Palestine, still to no avail, still no solution? How is it possible that the more people chant “Free Palestine,” the more we see problems in Jerusalem? How is it possible that the same countries that are the closest allies of the US Government and the UK, which are the staunchest supporters of Israel, support Palestine? How is it possible that with regard to the Palestinian cause the friend of my enemy is not my enemy? How come that the Palestinian conflict defies the common sense? Is it a very complex and difficult conflict that cannot find a solution?

Among many others, these are valid and common questions that any Muslim or non-Muslim with a basic level of ability to think should ask. 

As it is routinely done in science, in order to understand problems, they should be simplified and stripped of unnecessary factors and data which interfere with our understanding. Therefore, the Palestinian cause should be understood in a broader political and historical perspective, especially for Muslims who are in essence trained by the Quran and the tradition of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to see beyond the surface.

Thus, historically speaking, the world was divided into two camps or two antagonist powers at the beginning of the 20th century. On one camp was the western Europe led by the British Empire, and, on the other camp, was the Ottoman Empire, which represented the whole Muslim Ummah – the worldwide Muslim community. So, there were not three or more powers, but two and only two. Of course, the enemy will do everything possible to downplay this fact by propagating in history books a world with so many powers where the Ottoman Empire was merely a fraction. This is a good strategy, though.

For the first time in the history of the religion of Islam since the death of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), Muslims were defeated by a united Europe, led by the British Empire. A worldwide military confederation, in cooperation with many Arab spies and paid agents, brought down the Ottoman Empire. The British enemy had long planned and plotted to defeated Muslims.

Definitely, the winner would rule the world, and the winner was the British Empire, which continues to rule the entire world with an iron fist. The war against the Ottoman Empire was not simply a war against the religion of Islam and Muslims, to be clear. It was a war for natural resources. The discovery of oil and the strategic geographical position of the Muslim lands were more than enough to motivate the British Empire to embark on its lifetime mission to bring down the Muslim caliphate.

The British were more successful. Their divide and conquer strategy worked. Their deception and lies were not exposed soon enough to ruin their plan. They promised the Arab spies and agents an empire of their own if they rebel and engage in terrorist attacks against the Ottoman Empire. The Arab spies and agents did exactly that except that the British turned out to be liars and deceivers, as usual.

WWI was a war of two camps, not three or four. It was a war of the British Empire and its European puppet states against the Ottoman Empire – the last Muslim caliphate and the supreme authority of the Muslim Ummah. In short, the British won. The Ottoman Empire was brought down officially in 1924. It was probably the saddest day of Muslims after the death of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

So, any political analysis and historical narrative remains deficient as long as it does not note this political panorama of the beginning of the 20th century. Unfortunately, the role of history books, political propaganda and documentaries is to make it difficult for the oppressed ones, in this case, Muslims, to realize the real political situation. This idea of creating a fake reality in order to cover up the true one seems to be a very common strategy of the British Empire. We learn in school about Great Powers, such as the British Empire, France, Russia, Austro-Hungary, Germany, Italy, and the USA, as if the whole world was focused on Europe, as if the biggest conflict was among such powers, so it gives the impression that the Ottoman Empire wasn’t even on the list, while in reality WWI had one single objective: to bring down the Muslim caliphate and colonize the Muslim lands and control their natural resources, and exactly that happened.

On the other hand, even though the Ottoman Empire was brought down as a result of WWI, this did not mean the end of Muslims and their power. Not at all. The Muslim caliphate was brought down not as a natural end of a degraded nation. It did not collapse because of bankruptcy. It did not end because there was no need for it. The caliphate was defeated, but the Muslim Ummah was a power to be reckoned with. There were scholars, scientists, warriors, and a large contingent of brave Muslim men and women who did not surrender to the British rule, which did not succeed to win its position by open military confrontation more than by tricks, deception and divide-and-conquer strategies.

In fact, the only strategy to keep Muslims under control was to divide them into some sixty states and rule them by puppet rulers. All the Muslim countries that are today members of the United Nations are formed by the British Empire. Every single ruler of such countries is a British agent, either trained directly in the British and American military schools, or secret spies. Many Muslims are well aware of this fact. We Muslims don’t confuse the British propaganda with the reality, so we know very well that independent country does not really mean independent; it means simply an administrative unit ruled by a British spy or agent. It does not require much intellectual effort to figure this out.

We Muslims know that our rulers are British spies and agents. We Muslims know that our borders have been drawn by the British experts in order to divide us in their best interest, not ours. We Muslims know that our natural resources are controlled by the British Empire and the US Government. We Muslims know that Muslim countries’ military is strictly controlled by the British Empire and the US Government. We Muslims know that our universities and academia are controlled by the British Empire and the US Government.

Not only us, but the British Empire is well aware of this fact, that we are aware of. The British political experts know that the Muslim Ummah is not going to accept very easy the British rule. Therefore, Muslims should be kept as much divided as possible, they should be killed as many as possible, their scholars should be imprisoned as many as possible, and they should be distracted as much as possible.

Yes, Muslims should be distracted. The biggest distraction of Muslims after the fall of the Ottoman Empire is the Palestinian conflict, which is a real conflict, no doubt, but it is totally an artificial conflict invented by the British Empire, again, strategically to distract Muslims and to prevent them from seeing the big picture. That’s why very often those who propagate the Palestinian issue are not genuine people who have a genuine interest to solve the issue, but they are paid British agents and CIA spies.

The truth of the matter is that our whole Ummah is under occupation, not only Palestine, as it is suggested. The enemy of Muslims is not simply Israel, which is an American and British military base, not an independent country, but our enemy is the British Empire and the US Government. It is not the US and British military base of Israel which makes plans and plots against Muslims, but it is the British Empire and the US Government which rule Muslims through puppet and agent rulers, through deception and propaganda, and through a total intellectual control.

Those who propagate the Palestinian conflict, who many of them are British and American spies and agents, don’t grasp the reality and they want to prevent others from understanding the political reality of Muslims.

No one denies the fact that Palestinians are suffering, are being killed, and living under oppressed, but that’s just a piece of the puzzle. Over the last century, since the end of the Muslim caliphate in 1924, Muslims have been suffering everywhere. Muslims have been killed and oppressed systematically in the Balkans, not only in Palestine. Muslims of Albania were banned to practice their religion for three decades. Muslims in Greece were killed and expelled from the country. Muslims were killed and massacred in Bosnia. Muslims were killed in Kosovo. Probably, Muslims of the Balkans have suffered the most in 1910s and 1920s, but no one knows about them. They were the target of the British Empire’s and the western Europe, which planned to wipe out Islam from Europe, as they did before in Spain.

Muslims have been killed and their lives have been destroyed in Iraq in 1920s and in 2000s. When Saudi Arabia cooperated with the NATO against Muslims of Iraq, where were those who chant “Free Palestine” at that time?

Muslims were killed and betrayed in Syria, which turned out to be a global plot against Muslim men. Syria turned to be a butchery. Muslims men in the West and in the Middle East were deceived, and publicly promised to be helped, by the US Government, the UK Government, Saudi Arabian Government, French Government, the Albanian Government, the Kosovo Government, the Turkish Government and many others in order to participate in that deceptive and treacherous conflict. They were promised, but instead they were executed and slaughtered. Many Muslim men were probably killed by the secret service of such countries and declared as gone to Syria.

The Syrian conflict could be the largest extra-judicial execution of Muslims in history. Why don’t we see people speak of this betrayal? Why don’t they point out the betrayal of Saudi Arabia and Turkey? Indeed, they cannot speak about the truth, but instead, keep Muslims engaged with an artificial conflict called “Palestinian conflict,” which is funded by the US and the UK Governments and their Arabia spies and backstabbers, such as Saudi Arabia.

The Palestinian conflict is real. I don’t deny it, but many of those who chant “Free Palestine” don’t want a solution. Many of them are fake. Many of them are paid spies and agents.

The Palestinian conflict is not a conflict about nationalism and over some lines drawn on the map by the British Empire. It is not a conflict between Jews, who are a tiny minority in the world, and two billion Muslims. The Palestinian conflict is part of a larger conflict: of the occupation of the Muslim Ummah. Muslims are being killed, oppressed, imprisoned, and their lived are being ruined everywhere. It is not only the Muslims in Palestine who don’t have a state, but everywhere. Muslims in the Balkans don’t have a state. Muslims in Russia don’t have a state. Muslims in the West don’t have a state. Muslims in Africa live under miserable conditions. Muslims in Asia live under oppression and killings. Muslims in China don’t have a state.

So, making the Palestinian conflict so vocal and the headline of our every day news is not fair. While some Muslims could be allowed by the US Government and the British Empire live a better life, such as in Saudi Arabia and other gulf countries, as a strategy of divide-and-conquer and as reward for their betrayal, for the most part Muslims are oppressed everywhere.

The biggest favor the Palestinians could do to the Muslim Ummah is by not treating their conflict as the biggest or the only one. Also, they should not treat their conflict as a nationalist struggle.

The solution to the Palestinian conflict has been suggested by one of the most renowned Muslim scholars, Muhammad al-Albani, whose family escaped persecution from Shkodra, Albania, in 1928, a similar conflict with the Palestinian one. Al-Albani has suggested that all Palestinians should abandon their country and escape persecution and oppression as they are not capable of fighting the enemy. Al-Albani was a scholar, a muhadith and well acquainted with history of Islam. He was not a pragmatist politician.

The reality has proven that he was right. Palestinians cannot fight against their enemy with rocks and sticks while their enemy possesses the most sophisticated weapons. They cannot fight against their enemy with American and British money while the US and the UK Governments finance their enemy. The common sense does not accept this. The Quran does not accept this.

The Quran give a clear solution to the Palestinian conflict and to any other conflict. The solution cannot come from spies and agents, and for sure it will never come from the UN and other fake international institutions founded by the British Empire. Allah has given clear instructions on how to deal with problems, be it the Palestinian one or others.

Allah has instructed us to learn and prepare strategies: “Indeed, the worst of all beings in the sight of Allah are the ˹wilfully˺ deaf and dumb, who do not understand” (8:22)

Allah has given the instruction on how to win over the enemies, by standing firm and remembering Him, by applying in our lives Allah’s knowledge revealed to us, not by playing soccer and presenting it to the masses as a type of war, and not by chanting “Free Palestine,” by turning the whole matter into a nationalistic propaganda. “O believers! When you face an enemy, stand firm and remember Allah often so you may triumph.” (8:45)

Allah has given clear instructions on how to deal with military conflicts, by real preparation, not by stones and spies and agents. “Prepare against them what you ˹believers˺ can of ˹military˺ power and cavalry to deter Allah’s enemies and your enemies as well as other enemies unknown to you but known to Allah. Whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be paid to you in full and you will not be wronged.” (8:60)

When Al-Albani advised Palestinians to leave their land and immigrate, he knew exactly what he was talking about. The fact that Muslim countries refuse to give citizenship to Palestinian citizens confirms exactly this idea that that conflict is meant to be continued as a distraction. Neither the British and US Governments, nor their Arab spies and agents are inclined to solve that conflict.

As Al-Albani has suggested, Palestinians should leave their country and prepare to liberate their land as part of a larger conflict: occupied Muslim Ummah against the British Empire. Today Muslims should not fight with stones and sticks, as they have no military, but by pen. We don’t have weapons. Muslims are split and divided, and infiltrated by spies and agents. The only battle that Muslims can fight in Palestine and elsewhere is the intellectual battle publicly, not secretly.

To conclude, the Palestinian conflict is a conflict created by the British Empire as a strategy of distraction. While Muslims are occupied everywhere, yet the need for liberation is still alive among themselves, the British Empire has addressed this need by propaganda and military strategies; hence, the Palestinian conflict. The British Empire and the British Government wants us to believe that only in Palestine Muslims are oppressed and occupied.

Muslims should not be distracted. The Palestinians should move away from nationalist propaganda and return to intellectual activism. They are not the only one oppressed, but we all together with intellectualism and the right mindset can lay the foundation for a guaranteed future success as a whole Ummah.

The post WHY IS PALESTINE IMPORTANT FOR THE BRITISH EMPIRE? appeared first on Sabri Lushi.

To talk about atheism gives the impression that one is talking about the most difficult and complex philosophical and intellectual topic, a topic that requires a formal education, research, sophisticated language, and deep knowledge of philosophy and its terminology. Saying the last thing first, in my view, the missing element of the debate which simplifies the understanding of this topic is the word ‘politics’. Hence, atheism is much simpler to understand than it looks like. Indeed, it does not deserve much intellectualism. However, the seemingly complex debate on atheism is a result of a lack of understanding of some concepts which are prerequisite for the subject, among which is politics itself. While the political perspective on atheism deserves a book, not atheism itself, I would like to give a quick view on this political topic.

Interestingly enough, the traditional religions, more importantly Islam, do not seem to address atheism per se at all. Is this an indication that atheism is a new and complex intellectual awareness which these traditional religions did not predict, or even worse, did not have an answer for it? While it is absolutely true that Islam, for example, does not deal specifically with atheism, the truth of the matter is that the subject of atheism, as we know in modern times, is a political movement. On the other hand, Islam, Christianity and Judaism categorize its intellectual side of this phenomenon as disbelief – this broad term which is treated deeply by such religions, especially Islam as a pure monotheistic one.

First, to understand the fallacy of atheism one has to understand God, which is the essence of a monotheistic religion. Because such a religion claims to have been established on received revelation from Heaven, has as a central mission to call people to God and teach people about God, then it is crucially important to look at how a monotheistic religion itself defines God, and then, of course, the misconception of atheism as an intellectual movement will become clear.

A monotheistic religion views God – the Creator, regardless of specific and variable names – as the ultimate truth. The creation – everything we sense or beyond our senses, is simply an indication to this truth, according to it. Moreover, in the religious perspective, God is a fact, whether we accept it or not, whether we articulate it or not, whether we worship Him or not. For the sake of argument, let us just say that this is simply a claim, but again, it is very important to see how the religions themselves view God, not from an intellectual or philosophical perspective, because this topic is first and foremost the domain of a monotheistic religion.

Considering God as a clear fact, not as a belief, a monotheistic religion emphasizes the ultimate goal, which is, to know God. Yes, to know God. Hence, knowing God is a process, not a sudden awareness, not an intellectual recognition, not simply the recognition of the existence of God. It is a process and a goal or objective in itself. God, according to Islam – as a monotheistic religion, is the ultimate truth, the most clear and extraordinary fact that cannot be perceived as other facts. In this regard, the process of knowing God – the Creator – is referred to as ‘worship’ in the religious terminology. The key concept here is ‘knowing though a process’, not simply ‘acceptance’.

Therefore, the whole focus of a monotheistic religion is how to KNOW God, not to merely ACCEPT God. God is not like any other fact of the nature. By merely accepting the existence of God, according to a monotheistic religion, has practically no value because the existence of God is recognized by everyone, consciously or subconsciously. So, proclaiming theoretically that there is a God – the Creator and Eternal – does not mean at that one knows God if that claim is followed by no process, which is the process of worship, such as giving charity in the name of God, praying to God, contemplating about God, obeying God, practicing God’s commandments and so on and so forth. The beautiful aspect of worshipping God is that it serves two purposes: first, it is the only way to know the ultimate and the most important truth – God Himself, and second, it is the best set of rules which produce a happy life, and frankly speaking, the only way of the continuation of life on Earth.

Nevertheless, the process of knowing God, which is a life time and a paramount process, can be undermined by something called ‘polytheism’. According to Islam, as a purely monotheistic religion, polytheism is the recognition of a false god beside God – the Creator. By recognizing and dedicating part of the ‘process’ to a false god beside God, this undermines totally the process of knowing God – the Ultimate Truth. By simply recognizing another god and dedicating some worship to it, this in and of itself is evidence that one does not ‘know’ God and cannot know God as long as they do not recognize God as the only one. The process of knowing God and the recognition are inseparable.

For this reason, Islam does not address atheism as a special phenomenon. Atheism falls under polytheism, regardless of the morphological meaning of the word ‘atheism’. According to the monotheistic religions, by virtue of not knowing God – by not recognizing or by undermining the process, one automatically recognizes another god because in reality there is no vacuum. According to Islam, whether one does not recognize the existence of a creator, or recognizes but does not submit to that creator, or recognizes a creator but recognizes other gods beside God, they all have one thing in common: they do not know God, which is the ultimate goal. An atheist, according to Islam, is no worse overall than someone who recognizes God as a creator but worships a statue or a person. They both do not know God and both are categorized as polytheists or disbelievers, according to a monotheistic religion. Of course, this is not to say that a type of polytheists could not have a better chance to wake up and ‘know’ God than another type of polytheists, such as atheists. Definitely, polytheism consists of subcategories, but the bottom line is that all polytheists do not know God, including the subcategory of polytheism called “atheism’.

Again, understanding the concept of ‘knowing’ God is the key concept of belief in God, which is promoted by a monotheistic religion, such as Islam. God is the most important truth, not like other facts, and as such, God cannot be perceived like other facts, such as mathematical or natural ones. Knowing God requires another dimension, different from the way we deal with mathematical or natural facts. Knowing God is a process, an attitude, a choice, a personal decision really. If one starts the process of knowing, if one chooses to know God, if one looks for God, definitely one will know God, even if he or she is an illiterate individual in the most remote areas and cut off from civilizations. Conversely, if one chooses not to know God, he or she will not then know God and cannot know God as long as there is no choice and no process undertaken to know God, even if he or she is the most renowned scientist in the world. A scientist could be good at dealing with the data and facts of the nature, but this ability does not help him or her too much, not to say at all, to know God. Knowing God, according to Islam, for instance, is a matter of choice, not a matter of scientific ability because God is a fact of a different aspect than the facts of the nature.

Moreover, according to Islam, genetically or naturally every human being, regardless of origin, social stratum, race, parental status, color, physical construct, intellectual ability, has an awareness or innate disposition of the existence of a creator, no matter how vague it might look and no matter how the environment suppresses that awareness or disposition. Actually, according to a monotheistic religion, the main goal of life is the challenge or the struggle to know God by overcoming all the hindrances of the social environment which tend to suppress the awareness of God, hence the concept of test. As a result, there is no real atheist, in the sense that someone quite honestly does not know if there is a creator or not. Even anthropologically speaking, every society, regardless of time and place, has demonstrated that God, or a type of god, has been part of their spiritual and social life. This is indicative of this innate disposition of humans to look for God.

To sum up, Islam, as a monotheistic religion, or even Judaism and Christianity, do not really address atheism separately from polytheism because atheism is not an intellectual or serious movement. Atheism simply falls under polytheism, which is considered as disbelief as well. What matters is to know God, not to accept the existence of a creator. Atheists, as all other subcategories of polytheists, choose not to know God – the Creator and the Ultimate Truth, despite the fact that they are absolutely aware of the existence of a creator, according to Islam, for instance. The reasons why atheists choose not to know God could vary from political, pragmatic, social to the most stupid ones, but not intellectual at all.

So, the claim that Islam, as a monotheistic religion, has failed to predict the appearance of atheism is hollow. Islam views God as a fact, but which is different from any other fact of the nature. As such, it cannot be known by merely accepting the existence of that fact. The awareness of the existence of God and the capability of knowing God is genetic in every human being. However, knowing God is a matter of choice and it is a process. The process of knowing God can be undermined by virtue of recognizing another god and this is called polytheism. Atheism, according to the religion of Islam, is a subcategory of polytheism. Atheists are not god-less people. Their god could be money; their superficial pseudo-intelligence could lead them to worship their stupidity; however, the most important factor which has promoted atheism in modern times is politics, in my view, not an intellectual pursuit.

Atheism is not a genuine intellectual movement of people who genuinely don’t believe in the existence of God. Atheists want to be perceived as intellectuals and neutral, as people who genuinely are looking for hard-core facts of nature and who accept only evidence which can be perceived by the five senses, who are open-minded and ready to accept the truth, who are more sophisticated than others, yet in reality they demonstrate a religious commitment and a political fanaticism, not a ‘scientific’ approach as they claim.

If we examine carefully the activity of atheists, we’ll see that much of their focus is on attacking God and the traditional religions, especially Islam. At the same time, the fact that academia, media, universities, schools, and the world of art are overpopulated by atheists, this is because atheism is supported as a religion by politics around the world.

There is nothing new and complicated about atheism. It is a different face of the classical polytheism. It is as dark and irrational and old as polytheism itself. The religion of Islam, as a monotheistic religion, does not even refer specifically to this movement because it is a political movement, not an intellectual one.

The post ATHEISM: A POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE appeared first on Sabri Lushi.

 Therefore, given the fact that humans have free will – the ability to make choices and decisions, which is to say, they don’t function at a level of instincts or pre-programming, they are in need of principles, rules, laws, and a moral code in order to organize their lives and guarantee a societal or collective success and a continuation of human life on Earth.

In this regard, the religion of Islam has given us a clear and necessary recipe for human survival, which otherwise is doomed to self-destruction. Sometimes the divine instruction for societal survival is conveyed explicitly, such as the first verse of the fourth chapter of Quran, called “Women,” “O humanity! Be mindful of your Lord Who created you from a single soul, and from it He created its mate, and through both He spread countless men and women. And be mindful of Allah—in Whose Name you appeal to one another—and keep family ties. Surely Allah is ever Watchful over you. [4:1], or it is drawn from the main aims of Islam, such as the maintenance of human society or human life on Earth.

There are two requirements which human society must comply with in order to survive: the belief in God and maintaining kinship ties. The importance and the necessity of believing in God are more oblivious than many of us think about. It equips people with divine laws and rules which guarantee success; it elevates humans to a sublime level of purpose of life and opens up for them a transcendental and spiritual dimension that distances them a great deal from their animalistic level. Above all, without divine revelation, humans are lost, and they can never fully figure out what’s right and what’s wrong, what’s good and what’s bad, what’s harmful and what’s beneficial in the long run. Without fear of God and the maintenance of kinship ties, human society falls into a vicious circle of killing and fighting one another – all against all.

In order to make the whole topic understandable, let’s compare Islam with Secularism and the current situation of the world. Secularism proposes exactly the opposite: the removal of God altogether from the political and societal life and promoting a fabric of society where ties among people should not be based on kinship – which are natural and real ties. Secularism is heavily focused on the undermining of these two elements: the belief in God and family ties.

Secularism is driven purely by the desire to rule people. It is an extremely pragmatist and Machiavellian ideology and political system. The interest of Secularism is not the future of human society. It is filled with self-destructive forces. The mindset of Secularism is similar to an individual who chops a big tree down for the sake of a small branch up there, without thinking of the damage he is making to the nature. Secularism thinks of here and now; therefore, it does not care about the consequences of its policies.

I personally never understood why the religion of Islam emphasizes so much the belief in God and the preservation of kinship ties until I noticed, or even confronted with, the endeavor of Secularism to undermine exactly these two. If we look at the case of Albania, for example, we would notice a clear Secularist project to attack the belief in God and dismantle family ties.

The war of Secularism on God and family ties reached its climax in 1960s when the Government of Albania declared atheism as the only constitutionally accepted ideology, banned the belief in God, outlawed the religion of Islam and Christianity, updated the official dictionary of Albanian language where it explained the meaning of God: “supposedly God has created everything, but we don’t believe in God,” demolished mosques and churches, and imprisoned thousands of religious clergy.

In addition, the Government of Albania undertook an unprecedented war on family ties, by outlawing the tribal system and everything related to it, by promoting traitors and spies on every tribe and family, by embarking on an intensive and thorough propaganda against the concept of family, by heavily punishing or persecuting whoever showed inclination to defend their family members against the injustice perpetrated by the state, and by convicting or forcing families and relatives to distance themselves from the members  of theirs who are considered class enemies or political enemies.

So, Albania is the epitome of Secularist war against God and family ties. Frankly speaking, I used to think that my country was an isolated case, or some kind of exception. In fact, the ruling elite and the squad of propagandists of the system have made a great effort to make people believe that the Secularist regime of Albania was a dictatorship, which did not manifest a sophisticated western ideology against God and family ties.

In reality, if we look at the Secularism in general, we will notice the same situation, that communism in Albania or the Soviet Union, democracy or socialism in the West, and nationalism in the Middle East, are in essence the same, strive to achieve the same and their crusade against God and kinship ties is the same.

In the Secularist West, even though religion is not formally and officially banned or outlawed, the belief in God is restricted and frowned upon, propagated against, God is mocked, atheists are promoted, religion is considered a private matter and that Secularism or Laïcité constitute the basis of the public and political life, those who believe in God are often associated with backwardness, are publicly ridiculed and are falsely blamed for political problems, such as terrorism or extremism. Nationalism, too, in the Middle East or the former territories of the Ottoman Empire has caused havoc on religion and Muslims. While the ban of religions has been a difficult task, it has used other strategies to fight against Islam, such as by promoting heretics and heretical versions of the practicing of Islam. The Republic of Turkey is a good example of the nationalist war on religion and God.  In the end, it doesn’t matter whether you call it democracy or communism, nationalism or patriotism, Secularism – which is the dominant ideology and the political system of the West and in the East, is an ideology that fights uncompromisingly against God.

Even when it comes to family ties, the West’s war is uncompromising. The western crusade against family ranges from clear antifamily laws, public propaganda and political agendas, to a more insidious war, such as by recruiting spies in every family, who serve as role models in society, by introducing scientific theories to justify this war or to mislead the society, such as the Evolution Theory or Psychoanalytic theory and other so-called scientific theories, and by introducing classes and school subjects that indoctrinate children against God and family ties.

Anyone who is genuine and sincere can notice the clear war of the western Secularism, whether it is called democracy, communism, or nationalism, on God and family ties. If you are a person who values family ties, who stand up for your family members and is ready to sacrifice for them, you are considered a problem by the system, and soon you’ll find yourself being a target of the system, even if you’re not aware of this fact.

Unfortunately, the West has gone even further to the extreme. The whole institution of marriage is being transformed into a marriage which is either fruitless, such as the same sex marriage, or politically a heavy burden. The natural and real marriage in the West, i.e., husband and wife, is restricted legally to the extent that in the near future people either will escape to remote areas in order to form a family or they will avoid it altogether. The war of the West on family is so rampant and the cases of victims are so many that it is hard to overlook.

In conclusion, the religion of Islam promotes unequivocally the belief in God – being conscious of God and involving God in every aspect of human life, and the maintenance of family ties as the only way to survive and guarantee a societal success by saying, “Surely, following the ˹heavenly˺ Record, We decreed in the Scriptures: “My righteous servants shall inherit the Earth.” [21:105], and the righteous servants are those who believe in God as well as they maintain family ties.

Secularism, on the other hand, promotes exactly the opposite: the removal of God from every aspect of life, and if needs be, ban it altogether, as well as it promotes individualism and treacherous family ties. Whether Secularism does this simply as a strategy of ruling people and maintaining its power, or because it is a devilish ideology, which calls people to the worship of Satan and its religion, little does it matter. All what matters is that this is an observable reality, that the war on religion and family which we all notice in the West is not sporadic; rather, it is part of a more organized ideology and war on religion and family; it is systemic and ideological.

Rationally speaking, how can a society survive and continue to exist when its members are all against all – as Secularism promotes, when what’s right and what’s wrong, what’s just and what’s unjust, what’s good and what’s bad is not based any longer on some natural principles – as the religion or the belief in God promotes, but based on the interests of a small group in order to maintain their power – as Secularism promotes, when the economic transactions among people are not based on fair and just principles – as the religion of Islam or the belief in God promotes, but based on economic transactions based on interest, deception, exploitation, and oppression – as Secularism promotes?

Indeed, Secularism gives the best recipe for human self-destruction, as we are noticing each and every day, while Islam promotes justice, family ties as a natural mechanism of organizing the life on Earth, and fair economic transactions – based on no interest and exploitation. Islam has given the recipe of guaranteeing a societal success. Secularism is the king without clothes; we all see him, but we are afraid to speak up.

The post ISLAM’S RECIPE FOR A SOCIETAL SUCCESS AND SECULARISM’S STRATEGY OF RULING appeared first on Sabri Lushi.

Without focusing on the technical meaning of what barbarism exactly means, we all agree that it is the opposite of what humans should be and how they should behave. Cambridge dictionary defines it, for example, as “extremely cruel and unpleasant.” Thus, it would be very beneficial to analyze the western secularism, which is, more or less, the most obvious achievement of the British Empire from this perspective, as it holds de facto and almost de jury the global political and economic control. In other words, the British Empire’s achievement is today’s dominant culture and it has penetrated into every corner of the globe, be it positively or negatively. As a Muslim, I would say that the British Empire’s achievement, that is, the western secularism, has affected negatively the Muslim world more than any other community, but my argument is that it has had a serious negative effect in the whole world, to the extent that it might be called a barbaric civilization. 

THE HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

The first historical major change of the British Empire is the split from Rome – the Catholic Church. Whether King Henry VIII did that for the sake of his marriage or for purely political reasons, that does not change the fact that it has had a decisive effect in Britain’s future. Probably it was the right decision. The excommunication and the founding of a new church, i.e., the Church of England, could have freed the Brits from the ideological and theological restrictions of the corrupt Roman Catholic Church.

Splitting the population into two antagonist groups, the British were the first to pay the hefty price. The group that the King or the Queen of England belonged to meant an attack on the other side. The British Empire, therefore, was forged by bloody interior conflicts. The execution of Charles I in 1649 constitutes the highest point of the political conflicts within the British Empire during that time. Perhaps, this was the beginning of the execution of many other kings in Europe and for the same reasons: in order to secularize the power. This does not necessarily mean to have a form of power without religion, as secularism itself is a type of religion; rather, the British Empire experimented with religion and religious games.

Another famous royal execution, which was decisive for the fate of Europe, was the beheading of King Louis XVI in 1793 in Paris. The French Revolution, which was classically a civil war, was no more than a triumph of Secularism over the Catholic Church. Similar to the British Empire before, France underwent tremendous political changes. The French people killed their king and his wife, murdered and forced into exile thousands of Catholic priests, and the French people were forced to convert into a new religion – a previous version of communism. 

Different from the British Empire, the French Revolution did not give rise to a new French king. Even Napoleon Bonaparte, who was a direct product of that chaos and the most notable political name in the modern history of France, did not do any service to his country. All he did was invasion and destruction of Europe through his meaningless wars, which, whether coincidently or not, he paved the way for the British Empire to rise to power. In the end, he was defeated by the British in the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Surprisingly, he was eventually captured by the British, but he was not executed; rather, he was sent into exile, as if being protected by his masters. To reiterate, he did not achieve anything for the French people except that he paved the way for the British while actually France was rendered a total destruction politically, economically and militarily.

On the other hand, the British Empire’s power was constantly on the rise, by expanding its territories around the world and controlling the most important trade routes. In the nineteenth century, especially during the Victorian era, the Great Britain positioned itself as a global power, regardless of what the factors might have been.

Fast-forward to the twentieth century, WWI and WWII collapsed the world. The Ottoman Empire – one of the biggest empires of the world’s history, was brought to an end by the British. A few years before that, the Russian Empire was burned by the communists and executed the king. The same happened to the Astro-Hungarian Empire – it came to an end. At the same time, Benito Mussolini trod the same path – getting rid of the old rich families and presented the country as a gift to the British. Japan did the same in the east Asia during WWII. Its meaningless war had one major product: the spread of communism in China and the consolidation of the power of the British Empire.

While in 1945 the world was bleeding and burnt to the ground, the British Empire, along side with the US Government, was strong as never before. The whole Europe was, at least, self-defeated by the madness and the apparent meaningless war of Hitler. France was literally occupied by Hitler and liberated by the British and American armies. Germany was burnt completely and ended up as the spoils of war for the British and American armies.

In 1945, the British Empire and its tool, the US Government, literally controlled the whole world. This is a historical fact. In the very same year, the British Empire founded unprecedented world government under the umbrella of United Nations. UN is no more than a clear and formal manifestation of the political power of the British Empire, which continues to rule the entire world undisputed and with an iron fist.

In the conclusion, it is a verifiable fact that the British Empire today rules the world, regardless of the reasons which have led to this reality, which could have been coincidental – the black death in the medieval Europe, for example, as much as in complete compliance with the history of civilizations. As many historians point out, such as Ibn Khaldun, civilizations are often attacked by outside and barbaric tribes who bring an end to the existing ones.  The same goes for the British Empire: some barbaric tribes from the outskirts of Europe have managed to encompass under their claws the whole world. This is a lesson to be learn, indeed.

Probably as any other empire before it, the British Empire has risen to power through bloodshed, execution of kings, massive inhumane enslavement of the African population, theft of wealth, gold, money, natural resources, assassinations, support of corrupt people and scoundrels, murder of women and children by defying any common-sense rule of war, attack on religion, a declaration of war on God, as well as degradation of human race. The British Empire’s history of rise to power is nothing short of barbarism, not only from the stand point of view of coming from the outskirts of Europe, but due to its history of brutality.

BRUTALITY

If there is one word which fits well in the description of the British Empire and its bloody history is ‘brutality’ – the main trait of barbarism. If volumes of books were to be written about the British brutality, it would not be sufficient, whether about the bloodshed or the cultural brutality.

The number of people that have been killed under the British and American brutality is unmatched in the whole human history. The real number could be unimaginable and incomprehensible. Nevertheless, wars and killing are intrinsic human traits, so to be fair, it is not only the British Empire to be blamed. This only serves as a general data in order to analyze the achievement and the truth about the Empire today in the hope of changing things for better.

It would be more than enough to mention in general the brutality of the British Empire in North and South America, which has exterminated thousands of tribes, killed and murdered millions of people, a criminal activity which is perhaps unparalleled in the human history. What makes it worse is the fact that the British have used betrayal and backstabbing techniques – to the borderline of blasphemy and not suitable for human dignity, in order to spread its power in North America, by killing women and children, stealing children from their parents, breaching contracts and treaties – a typical characteristic of pagans, and by carrying out cultural and criminal genocides.

In addition, the British Empire and its puppet states of Europe have committed massacres in Africa, which, to this day, this continent continues to bleed and suffer from the consequences of the brutal activity of the corrupt Empire. 

Millions of innocent people were captured by force in Africa and shipped to North America while millions of them were dumped in the Atlantic Ocean. This is one of the most barbaric forms of crimes. It is true that killing and murdering people, or capturing them and then using them as slaves have made the British Empire rich, but to what price?

Not only were innocent people captured in Africa by the British Empire, separated from their families and tribes, and were sent to North America to work as slaves in the production machine of the Empire, but they were mistreated and oppressed as if they were some types of animals. Indeed, even animals deserve proper treatment. The crimes of the British Empire are compound. When we think of slavery today, the only image that we have in our mind is the image of Africans captured by the British Empire and sending them to North America where they are forced to work.

The brutality of the British Empire is not limited to Africa and North America. The newly rich Empire spread its power everywhere in the world, in Australia, Asia, and Oceania. Its record was no better.

The problem is that the British Empire has managed to improve its public image by often attributing many crimes to other entities, such as the US Government, other European states such as Belgium, for example. Such were simply puppets of the Empire. At the same time, by abolishing slavery, which after all was done for purely pragmatist reasons and due to the increase of other means of control for people, the British Empire has managed to make a good image, as if it is the first political entity in human history to abolish slavery.

DARWINISM

The British Empire has typically and famously manufactured a new mindset and a new doctrine on human beings, that is, Darwinism. No one before the British had dared go that far to mock and denigrate human as they did. Darwinism, which for the first time in human history equates people to animals from an ideological perspective, is no less than a mockery of human dignity.

When the Evolution Theory was formulated by a contracted servant of the Empire, perhaps there was a doctrinal need to justify the criminal activity of the British Empire. In a way, assuming that humans are a species of animals, capturing and using them were not ethically wrong. In fact, on many occasions, the British, assuming themselves to be on a higher animal rank, have felt the obligation of civilizing other tribes in the world, by killing and exterminating tribes, by capturing their children and teaching them the British culture, and by building massive network of brainwashing schools, similar to the educational system of today.

Darwinism is not only responsible for the massive crimes and enslavements of the British Empire in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, it is also responsible for the rise of the Nazi ideology, which felt the same moral obligation: to spread the Aryan race, which led to WWII – the bloodiest war in human history. Indeed, Darwinism represents the moral degradation of the British Empire, which was a political system based on racism, unprecedented discrimination and even believed that certain races should be wiped out. To reiterate, Nazism did not rise in a vacuum. It was a British Empire’s product.

There is no doubt that Darwinism did not come into existence as a genuine need for scientific inquiry and development. Hardly has it to do with science, which could have worked perfectly without the Darwin’s theory. Rather, it represents the ideological and political tactics of the British Empire in order to justify its massive criminal activity. It is this one so-called political theory that even today continues to be rejected and it has not found a natural acceptance among humans, which is not the case with other scientific theories. This fact is very indicative of the political weight that it carries.

In my personal view, Darwinism tells us about what kind of empire and political entity the human society has been dealing and continues to deal with. To this very day, we continue to face the negative consequences of the same political and ideological mindset. Atheism, for example, is a direct result of Darwinism as well as the rise of nationalism and the revival of paganism. Darwinism mocks and insults the dignity of human beings and projects on them an animalistic blindness.

NATIONALISM, COMMUNISM AND MARXISM

The same political mindset which is responsible for the invention of Darwinism – the idea of trying to find a way of justifying crimes, is responsible, too, for the rise of nationalism, fascism, communism and other similar political ideologies, which are the same in essence.

In order to spread its power and then maintain it, the British Empire invented the concept of nationalism and its derivatives, such as communism. By appealing to people’s irrational and primitive feelings of selfishness and false assumption of independence, the British Empire has been successful in the 19th and 20th centuries in getting people together fight against their own empires, typically against the Ottoman Empire, and promising them self-governance, which, in the modern time, is unreal and fictitious. However, it has proved to be an effective way of keeping people under control.

Apart from the false idea of self-governance, which has not been enough to guarantee a total control of people, nationalism is interconnected with the idea of communism, which is presented to people exactly as a new religion except that it denies God categorically.

Apart from the horrible crimes that the British Empire has committed in Africa and North America, which has brutally exterminated millions upon millions of people, the invention of communism, as well as nationalism – especially the ideological aspect of it, are probably the worst ideological and political crimes of the British Empire.

Communism was not a gradual and smooth way of changing people. It was one of the most barbaric cultural and political undertakings that humans have ever seen. By killing and murdering the elite, by starving to death millions of people, by inventing labour camps, by giving rise to brutal and tyrannical dictatorships, by changing people’s cultures, religions, and languages, by changing alphabets, by spreading paganism and radical nationalism, by burning and destroying books and artifacts, by installing a system of political propaganda and brainwashing, by treating children as objects of a laboratory, communism has proven to be the greatest madness of human history. If anyone knows anything worse, let they tell us. The damage that communism has done to humanity reaches the level of being irreparable.

By using the communist ideology as one of its main strategies of spreading its power, the British Empire is responsible for millions of deaths, oppression, destruction and demolition of religious monuments and places of worship, the murderer of millions of scholars and religious clergy. From Russia to China, from Cuba to Guatemala, from Yemen and East Africa to Southeast Asia, from Albania to Turkey, from Greece to Poland, the British Empire has done massacres through its communist movement, which hit and encompassed humanity as a plague.

If one looks at the case of Albania alone, it is sufficient to understand the horrors that the British communism has done. By installing a barbaric government, which has operated more on secret activity rather than on transparent and formal, the British puppets of Albania killed the elite, confiscated the property of all Albanians through a bogus agrarian reform, declared atheism in the stronghold of the Muslim Ottoman Empire as its official and constitutional religion, demolished almost all the mosques and turned the entire population into spies and agents. Apart from such crimes, the British communism is responsible for massive rapes in Albania. The country of grand viziers and fierce warriors during the Ottoman Empire was occupied and turned by the British Empire into ruins.

This is just an example of the crimes and the barbarism of the British Empire. In Russia and China, too, probably more than eighty million people have been killed by the communist regimes installed by the British Empire.

The communist movement might have had a tremendous effect on the wealth and the consolidation of the British Empire’s power and position, but this shows the barbarous side of a worldly empire that still continuous to rule the world.

I dare say that the British Empire is a Marxist and communist empire, which, in order to spread its power, it considers any means possible, such as the war on God and religion and natural human values. It is by far an embodiment of radical political pragmatism and Machiavellianism. It is not a coincidence at all that today Marxism is the lenses through which the British Empire sees the world and by which it operates. Marxism is the default assumption in science, law, culture, politics, literature, and in the educational system in general.

At the same time, the British Empire is as communist and Marxist as it is a pagan empire. Supporting and adopting paganist rituals and movements, it considers this as an opportunity to fight against religion, especially the religion of Islam, which is considered the only ideology to resist against the British barbarism. There is no doubt that the British Empire is a communist and pagan empire.

THE DESTRUCTION OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE AND THE PERMANENT WAR ON MUSLIMS

By bringing down the Ottoman Empire, as the official caliphate of the whole Muslim Ummah (global community) and as a continuation of a central Islamic caliphate since the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the British Empire has caused one of the greatest catastrophes for human society, at least in the modern time. 

After attacks and plots for over a century, the British Empire and its puppet European states were successful in bringing down the Muslim caliphate, which had been one of the greatest and important empires of the world and which had demonstrated a high level of political tolerance and co-living with others. The 3rd of March, 1924, was one of the darkest days for Muslims since the death of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The British triumphed over them and abolished their central government.

Meanwhile, the Muslim Ummah was treated as spoils of war. The British installed puppet viceroys from Morocco to India and Indonesia and split the whole territory into states, provinces and colonies the way it suited the British.

Once the Ottoman Empire was abolished and taken over by the British, Turkey – the headquarters of the empire, faced and underwent existential crisis. The British agent, Mustafa Kamal Ataturk did not spare anything possible at his disposal in his war against Islam and Muslims.

Under the instruction of the British barbarians, he made Ankara the capital of the Turkish Republic in order to overshadow Istanbul – one of the greatest cities of that time, which was not only the capital of the great Ottoman Empire, but also it was home to gigantic universities, libraries, circles of scholars and centers of knowledge. 

Mustafa Kamal Ataturk undertook political reforms in the heart of the Muslim Ummah that even by today’s political standards are to be considered as barbaric, catastrophic and criminal. He changed the alphabet from Arabic script to Latin – as the symbol of the British occupation, burned books, destroyed libraries, destroyed mosques, waged war on his population and whoever resisted, forced into exile thousands of scholars while thousands of them were either imprisoned or executed by this British agent.

Mustafa Kamal – the enemy of the Turkish people and an open British viceroy, attempted to ban the religion of Islam altogether by proposing radical changes in the pillars of Islam themselves, such as the change of adhan (the call to prayer), the prayer – by proposing to make it in Turkish language, the fasting etc.

When we see what the British Empire has done in other countries and the policies it has used, Mustafa Kamal was simply implementing the political guidelines of this empire, no more no less. Nevertheless, the resistance that Muslim scholars showed against the terrorist regime of Mustafa Kamal Ataturk slowed down or even prevented the infamous success of this British agent.

The war and animosity of Mustafa Kamal on Muslims and Islam is the epitome of the British barbarism. If one wants to be acquainted with the crimes of the British Empire against the Muslim Ummah, let them read about the British agent Mustafa Kamal and his barbaric and terrorist activity in Turkey. This also shows once again that the British Empire has always been and continues to be the worst and uncompromising enemy of Islam and the Muslim Ummah.

Even though currently Muslim population makes up almost twenty percent of the world’s population, they still don’t have an independent country of their own, which would look after all Muslims and practices the Islamic law, instead of applying the secular and barbaric laws of the British Empire. In addition. Muslims inhabit the richest lands in the whole word and the most strategic places, yet they are oppressed, poor, many of them are starving to death, they are killed and persecuted, in many countries they are arrested and imprisoned without a proper trial, they are discriminated and they are an object of well-prepared plans of the British Empire against them.

Unfortunately, the war of the British Empire and its tool, i.e., the US Government, did not end in 1924 with the abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate. The British Empire’s war on Muslims has not stopped ever since, first by sponsoring national movements, then by installing and changing dictatorships periodically in order to prevent the stability of people, by controlling their economy and education, the military and science and knowledge.

The British Empire’s wars on Muslims are not classical and in accordance with some human dignity principles. The war in Iraq, for examples, which was undertook by the US Government – the main British tool, was a blatant violation of human dignity. A beautiful country was destroyed by the British Empire in a matter of short period of time even though it was under the British control anyway.

The British backstabbing and mad wars on Muslims include Afghanistan – which was destroyed in cooperation with the USSR, as well as Chechnya, Kosovo, Bosnia, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, Kashmir, Pakistan, Burma, and attempted to destroy Egypt. These are just some examples of the continues and permanent war of the British Empire and the US Government against Muslims.

Kosovo, for instance, was a typical example of the American and British backstabbing. While the British Empire controlled formally and informally the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, it managed to pave the way for an apparent need for a national movement on the side of Albanian Kosovars. The conflict proved to be a pure British and American backstabbing.

While on one hand the British and American Governments urged Slobodan Milosevic to increase his pressure on Kosovo, by using paramilitary and mercenary troops – which could have included also mercenaries from America and the Great Britain, they supposedly helped the Kosovar people to form the Kosovo Liberation Armey, which lacked transparency. So, more or less, the British Empire and the US Government were playing with Kosovar people as they controlled both sides, Slobodan Milosevic and the KLA.

The main objective of the British Empire and the corrupt US Government was to undertake an intellectual and human cleansing in Kosovo. The so-called war had clear and well-defined objectives, different from what the Kosovar people fought for. The American and British objectives were to kill Kosovar people based on previous prepared lists and rape massively the Kosovar women. Therefore, the so-called ethnic cleansing that supposedly the western agent Slobodan Milosevic was trying to do had one objective: to force women to leave their homes and rape them while fleeing. In this regard, the Kosovo Liberation Army is complicit, by not resisting and fighting against the troops of the western agent Slobodan Milosevic; rather, they postponed their war over and over again. In fact, they hardly fought.

Once the rape was realized and the killing of Kosovar people based on lists were done in advance, the corrupt and backstabbing troops of NATO interfered and ‘liberated’ Kosovo. In 2008, Kosovo, after having been raped and lost many of its people – murdered based on lists, was declared independent. In other words, its administrative name was changed by the British Empire from a previous one to another one because in reality the whole Yugoslavia was under the British occupation and control anyway.

This is to show that the war in Kosovo was fake and a British and American game which intended only to kill Muslims in Kosovo and rape their women. The same story is repeated over and over again by the British. The same happened in Bosnia, where thousands upon thousands of Muslims were betrayed by the UN troops and slaughtered by the mercenaries of the western agent Slobodan Milosevic. Muslims in Albania and Greece, in fact in the whole Balkan Peninsula, have experienced the same: slaughter, persecution, murder, ethnic cleansing, confiscation of property and wealth – as it happened in Albania in 1997, as well as they’ve faced rape, imprisonment and permanent oppression.

To wrap up, the war of the British Empire on Muslims was the story of barbarism and animosity of a barbaric empire towards one of the most civilized and peaceful population, i.e., Muslims, who have contributed tremendously to the prosperity and development of humanity. There is no doubt that what the British Empire did to the Ottoman Empire, and its permanent wars on Muslims, shows that we are dealing with a barbaric empire one of its kind.

THE BRITISH MODEL OF GOVERNANCE: A POLITICAL TRAGEDY 

The British barbarism, in my view, is not limited to its wars and brutality against humanity, especially against Muslims, wars that never seem to end. The political barbarism is another aspect which makes the British Empire problematic and an object of criticism.

As the global empire, which rules the world, formally through United Nations and through the installation of national governments and republics around the world, and informally through its monopoly on natural resources, banks, finances and military – especially through its tool, i.e., the US Government, the British Empire rules the world through a very questionable and immoral political system.

First, it has created a political system that is based on secrecy and lack of transparency, which operates with the use of spy systems. Under a British form of governance, people should be all spies – of different roles and of different hierarchal ranks and levels, who, not only do they help the government to control people, but they after all are engaged in a business that neutralizes them as a political threat.

There is no doubt that people should serve the Government or the head of state. They should and must pledge allegiance to the head of state. That’s how power works. However, there is a difference between the traditional form of allegiance, which is transparent and fair, and the British model of spies. According to the latter, spies are not simply informants of the state, who report crimes, for instance. In this regard, there is nothing immoral and wrong to report crimes to the police. Actually, that might be even a legal and moral obligation.

Under the British form of governance, which is the model applied everywhere in the world, especially after the end of the Ottoman Empire, espionage is a form of allegiance but given in secrecy and informally to the government. If people are all spies – in a way informal and secret servant of the state, while they are not aware of each other, all are against all, all think that they are receiving a special treatment by the state; as a result, all people are controlled by the state almost in a way that they are not aware of.

The spy model of governance of the British Empire is its major political downside. While it gives an advantage to the state in terms of controlling people easily and in the most effective way, it undermines the very nature of humans – their consciousness and freedom. Humans, in order to be natural, they need an environment which allows them decide freely and maintain a level of dignity – which has to do with the core trait of them: free choice. By forcing people to become all spies, this could result into a moral and intellectual catastrophe, maybe unpredictable and unimaginable. That’s why, in my opinion, we notice social phenomena in this time and age that have never been witnessed before in human history. People have become zombies and lost their dignity and basic independent human intellectual ability – which is necessary to render them free so to make their own decisions. In short, oppressed people, who do not act freely and consciously, are dangerous; they are not natural, exactly as we are witnessing in the world nowadays.

There is no doubt that this is not the fault of the British Empire only. Empires are driven by the desire to rule and control, especially pagan empires such as the British one. It is also the fault of people that one by one have accepted this immoral, degenerated and corrupt British model of governance, which seeks to control people through espionage and unfair political techniques.

Speaking of political techniques, the British Empire also has made use of the divide and conquer one. It has perhaps managed to use this immoral and inhumane political model of power more than any other empire before. This could be explained by the massive wealth that the British Empire has accumulated, as well as by the removal of religion – which is the guidance of moral values, and by spreading pagan and nationalist ideologies throughout the world – which inevitably aims at dividing people. Indeed, one of the consequences of paganism and false religions is that they divide people and appeal to wrong primitive behaviour: thinking of here and now and immediate interests. True religion, on the other hand, encourages and even forces people to get united as it is a greater good for all members of the society, and it builds that unity on transparency, reason and conviction that it is better for all. That’s why empires are inclined to hate religion. The British Empire is no different in this regard. As I mentioned, the British Empire has mastered the political art of divide and conquer, which is the exact opposite what a true religion aims at.

Another problematic aspect of the British model of governance is the political process of election and political parties. The concept of a group of people electing one of them to lead is not intrinsically wrong at all. However, the British model of elections is fraud and theatrical, and it consists of a multitude of issues.

First, the concept of changing governments and other local leaders very frequently is not necessary and intrinsically good and positive. While some might argue that by changing prime ministers periodically, there is a better chance to receive a better political product. This is doubtless a very shallow way of thinking. Changing a prime minister does not guarantee that the next one is going to do better. What would make a prime minister govern better is legal accountability and punishment. If the British model of governance wants to tell us that removing a prime minister, after they’ve caused much harm to people, is a type of punishment, it is no more than a political joke. This is exactly the very problem of political elections of the British model of governance: its main purpose is to give people the impression that things are changing while in reality it lacks accountability. It is a fraudulent political model.

Second, political parties, which the British model of governance promotes so much, are simply theatrical groups. They have not been invented with the intention of producing a more just and effective political system. Quite the contrary, the purpose of political parties is merely to mislead and control people, to divide them on trivial issues, to keep them busy, to engage them on meaningless political topics, to increase hatred and disunity, to force them believe a surreal political model, and to give the government or the power enormous access to people in a secret and informal way. Political parties can get away with many non transparent and questionable activities. They also play a very important role to take the blame for the political corruption and failure that a country could face instead of blaming the state and the British model of governance. In any case, empires are forged by wars and are maintained by an iron fist; they are not changed by bogus elections.

Third, even if the process of political election could be a good way of giving people the right to have their say on who is going to govern, in reality candidates and who is going to win are prepared behind the scenes. Empires cannot really risk to allow people – random people who come from the masses and not the circle of elite, be elected. Let’s be genuine, if any citizen has even a slight chance to be elected, it would result into a very profitable business and many, many individuals will be invested in this industry; therefore, there would be a real chaos and a political conflict. The candidates that we see are all pre-selected by the Empire as well as the winners are decided in advance. Logically and logistically, the Empire cannot afford the opposite.

JUDICIARY

There is no doubt that the global British Empire has built a worldwide model of judiciary, which consists of highly controlled and obedient judges, whose main job is not to settle the disputes among people, defend their rights, pass sentences on those who wrong others. The primary job of a judge according to the British model of governance is to serve the state and protect the power, which is to say, the political persecution and a special focus on the enemies of the state are without doubt the number one priorities of a judge.

Likewise, laws of the Empire are ambiguous, unclear, abusive, leave much room for interpretation, and they give judges much power, including discretionary power. Thus, laws of the Empire are not formulated in a way which allow fair judicial trials and verdicts, equality before law, consistency, lack of judicial abuse, and a real separation of the power from the court verdicts. Regardless of claiming the opposite, the courts of the Empire – the worldwide judicial system, are not independent. It is the worse model that can practically exist.

It goes without saying that this model of court system is much convenient for the Empire and the maintenance of its power worldwide. After all, the Empire is not interested in delivering justice, which, in that case, it would be to leave nations alone. In fact, there cannot be expected to have a just and fair judicial system from an empire that has so much power and rules in a very non-transparent way. Thus, even from a legal perspective, the British Empire is barbaric and has installed a horrible system around the world.

EDUCATION, FAMILY, MEDIA

For an empire that is obsessed with control and the maintenance of its power, and which does not subscribe to any transcendental principles and moral values – rather, it has adopted a pagan and materialist political system, educational system and family are utilized excessively by the Empire.

Considering that the British Empire rules the whole world, which is to say that it faces tremendous challenges in maintaining its control, accessing people on a family level is the most effective way of ruling them. In this regard, the British Empire has raised a whole political industry which deals exactly with the concept of family, and everything related to it. This includes worldwide policies against the building block of society, weakening the power of the family level, changing laws by making it a means of control, rather than a unit of prosperity, by spreading the network of spies in every family, by giving wrong models, by inciting domestic violence, by making sure that in every tribe and family the power and the decision making belong to the wrong people, by replacing the traditional patriarchal model with a chaotic and weak one, by passing laws which criminalize certain behaviors related to family in the name of protecting people, and by changing the whole definition of marriage.

It is only understandable that an empire – a pagan and barbaric one, which considers the majority of the world as enemies, and given the fact that it rules the highest number of people the world has ever seen, it is much easier for it to have a population which is attacked at the family level – without letting people grow strong and united. This is common sense and logical, at least for the empire; as for the majority of people, they are heedless and neglectful regarding this bitter fact.

On the other hand, the educational system and the media are the perfect tools to tame the subjects of the Empire. Therefore, the purpose of the educational system – the vast network of schools and universities, is to brainwash people, to undo their natural common sense and instincts of survival and inquiry, to keep them busy, to make them waste the best time of their lives, to make them spend money in a school system which guarantees them for the most part nothing, and in the end, certify them for their inability. The Empire is not in need of knowledge and smart people; rather, it is in need of fools, stupid people who are not able to navigate through a complicated world of information, and people who lack critical thinking. The Empire needs only slaves and servants, not thinkers.

Apart from being the places of brainwashing, schools of the British Empire play a key role in collecting important information about children. The British Empire operates on information. It needs statistics. The Empire needs the records for each child, including their abilities, IQ, what they think, their special traits and characteristics, their potential abilities based on their genetics and intellect capacity etc. Not only does such information help the Empire select the right people who are going to serve it, but also it can be used to identify early enough those children who could pose a threat to the Empire, so they are oppressed and blocked. Therefore, the educational system is much controlled and non-transparent than many people think. Definitely, it is not a sporadic corruption which universities suffer from; it is the unfair educational system that the British Empire has built around the world.

In addition, the media is central in the Empire’s means of control. By having a total monopoly on the media around the world, the British Empire has unprecedented access to people and their lives. Without the media, this vast empire could have been not possible to last even a short period of time.

The media preaches day and night. It distorts the reality. It keeps people busy. It molds the public opinion. It spreads fear and scares people when needs be. Likewise, it gives people a false sense of hope. It has the power to make the bad appear as good and to make the good appear as bad. It has the ability to convince people. The media has the ability to make us believe that a war is happening while it can cover up another one which is real. By being the absolute monopoly of the British Empire, the media is the biggest weapon that this empire possesses, far greater than the military weapons.

In a nut shell, the British Empire has taken the concept of control to the next level. The true control of the British Empire is not through police officers and courts of law. On the contrary, the British Empire has built a sophisticated and well-organized system of control, which starts with family – by either destroying families or using it as a means of control, schools and the massive information that they provide for the Empire, by using educational tactics in order to deter students from knowledge – by projecting on them failure, and the control through media, which is a typical monopoly of the British Empire.

Indeed, the control that the Empire exercises is too much for faulty human systems. Even if its intentions are good, with such an excessive control, the Empire is prone to do more harm than good. Unfortunately, this is the case – the Empire has done more harm than good. The British Empire is attempting to control the human mind to the extent that it could lead to unpredictable phenomena and results. Being obsessed with such a level of control is no short of barbarism and brutality. Once again, the British Empire has proven itself to be an empire of barbarism and brutality.

ECONOMY AND BUSINESSES

Another aspect which the British Empire has consolidated its control is the economy. In fact, the Empire’s control would have been not as dangerous and problematic if the world of business, entrepreneurship and investments was more relaxed. Even though in some countries the British Empire has introduced the concept of free entrepreneurship, in reality the level of control is huge. After all, the British Empire is obsessed with control, which is normal for a pagan and enslaving empire, so it cannot tolerate a free and uncontrolled circulation of money and wealth. I am not referring here to the system of taxes and banks, but also to the ownership of businesses. More or less, it is the Empire which decides who is going to own businesses, who is going to become successful among them, and whoever escapes the means of control, there are legal mechanisms to bring them down.

To conclude, it would be foolish to believe that the British Empire, the one which de facto and de jury rules the world, which is obsessed with control as it is a pagan empire, is going to allow money and wealth circulate freely – outside the obsessive control of the Empire. In addition, those who are independent thinkers, who exercise independent decision-making ability, and who have a political and intellectual capacity face even more challenges. The Empire cannot tolerate such people have access to money, meaning, to jobs, businesses and other means of wealth.

Indeed, this is another barbaric aspect of the British Empire.

CONCLUSION

While WWI and WWII caused millions of deaths and incalculable amount of material and infrastructure damage to human society, it only consolidated the undisputed power of the British Empire, by making it for the first time in human history the global empire, which rules without an opposition or a political threat. Therefore, when we talk about the British Empire, we are not talking about something which belongs to the past; rather, we are talking about the one which rules the world today, which affects our lives, which controls our courts and local or national governments, which controls our educational system, and which has the absolute monopoly on the media, finances, banks, and economy.

Whether it has been a blessing or a curse to the world, there is no doubt that the British Empire has its dark sides and problematic aspects. It is an empire obsessed with control and it has much invested in this particular political aspect, by installing a sophisticated system of collecting information about children and forming models of control, by controlling the media, by controlling money and wealth, and above all, by creating a political system of spies and divide and conquer.

Indeed, the British Empire, which is a pagan and Machiavellian empire, is responsible for the deaths of millions upon millions of people, often not in the battle fields, as well as it responsible for the spread of communism around the world as its main political strategy of spreading and maintaining its power, for spreading atheism and secularism as a political strategy to get rid of traditional religions, for and sponsoring revolutions and coup d’états and disturbing the well-being of people.  

If the achievements and the deeds of the British Empire were to be put on a fair and just scale, there is no doubt that it is a barbaric and brutal empire, which has caused humanity much harm and continues to hold our human society hostage with its obsessive level of control, which starts from the family level. The corrupt British Empire has not spared anything possible at its disposable to spread and consolidate its power, including human desecration, and insult and disrespect to human dignity, such as by giving rise to Darwinism.

We need to speak the truth to the Empire; otherwise, we all would be complicit in its barbarism, crimes and brutality. If this corrupt empire continues with its obsessive control on humanity, the result could be unimaginable, as we have started to witness troubling phenomena. This pagan empire is merely driven by the desire to accumulate wealth, control people and maintain its power; it lacks any moral principles, so nothing would stop it from seeking refuge to anything which would help it to keep its power.

Peace and prosperity for humanity requires courage and to speak the truth to the Empire.

The post THE HISTORY OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE: BRUTALITY AND BARBARISM appeared first on Sabri Lushi.

To being with, the execution of an apostate is one of the few cases when the Islamic penal code prescribes such a form of punishment, and it is based on clear religious texts. At the same time, it is necessary to underline that this type of punishment is relevant only and only if there is a society with Muslim majority, there is a Muslim ruler – who is given allegiance by the members of that society, and who rules according to the Islamic law. So, we are talking about a context when there is an Islamic state, which has a government and a formal legal and judicial system, and which faces normal and common political challenges and threats. So, this case falls directly on the category of aspects of the Islamic law that are applicable only and only if there is a formal Muslim government. We are not talking here about chaos and assassinations.

In addition, the fact that the Islamic law does not tolerate people to embrace Islam and then renounce it, as if it is a kind of game, shows its confidence in the absolute truth. In other words, Islam prescribes this punishment, in the circumstances of the existence of a central Muslim government and judicial system, based on the assumption that it is the absolute truth and absolutely confident that it is not wronging people – it has clear grasp of the motivations of people for recounting Islam.

At the same time, whenever we deal with topics related to social norms, laws, rules, codes and political issues, we should not fall into the trap of assuming the western secularism of some sort of default and neutral standard. Indeed, the western secularism is a system, similar to worldly religion, which has been adopted by the British Empire – as the ruling empire of the world, and for that reason, it has gained such a high political status. It is the official religion of the Empire; it is not by any means the standard, not does it hold the monopoly of the truth. On the contrary, secularism has proven itself to be a false ideology, which has flagrantly failed to live up to its ideals and to deliver what it has promised to the world.

In order to better understand this stance of Islam on apostates and that it does not contradict the freedom of religious consciousness, let’s look at the factors and reasons which would motivate one to abandon it publicly. Again, we are talking about renouncing Islam publicly in a Muslim society and becoming activists on that new ideology. We are not talking about private cases, when people lose faith and commit sins. Islam does not approve the idea of police officers patrolling the streets and looking for people’s mistakes. Islam is a transparent religion, which frowns upon espionage and betrayal, spying on people and reporting their sins. Actually, it promotes just the opposite in multiple texts. It is the opposite of a secular western political system, which employs everything at its disposal in order to rule on people, including a massive spying system, which has turned people all against all. Western secular political system is a spy system; Islam is not. Thus, the punishment of apostacy is about public cases, not about personal sins, even when certain people have lost faith.

In my view, a Muslim society, which applies the Quran and the tradition of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), offers the best of what any ideology or religion can ever offer. Not only does it offer the best theology, the best and most just law, but it offers the best spiritual nurturing or psychological condition. In addition, Islam offers the best worldly legal system and way of life. In a real situation, why would a Muslim renounce Islam and become Christian, Jew, Hindu or whatever? If one believes in God or a Creator, Islam offers the best and most rational system of belief – it strictly promotes monotheism and the belief in all prophets. In the real world, it is hard to believe that one genuinely renounces Islam in order to embrace another religion because they are missing something in Islam. So, let’s put aside the secularist propaganda, and focus on a real situation.

On might argue that one wants to leave Islam, as he or she is not convinced any longer in the divine validity of the religion, so they want to free themselves from the obligations of the Islamic law and its restrictions. Strictly speaking, one does not believe in God and prophethood of Muhammad (peace be upon him). For example, one wants to leave Islam and start to sell drugs, loan money with interests, sell alcohol etc. because they no longer believe in God and in the Islamic law. They could claim that they genuinely are not convinced in Islam and its legislation.

The answer to this is very easy and simple. As long as that society is a Muslim majority one and it is ruled by a Muslim government – which applies the Islamic law, everyone will be subject to that legal system. By merely renouncing Islam does not free one from these laws. So, if one loses faith in God, it would be foolish to propagate that publicly, especially if they do so in the hope to be excluded from laws because that won’t happen.

By the same token, even in a secular society, no one will be excluded from the legal restrictions and laws of that land if one no longer believes in secularism and becomes a Muslim. The declaration of personal belief will not exclude anyone from the laws of a land. Secularism, for example, has chosen not to punish legally people who abandon it publicly while Islam – as a divine and confident religion, prescribes a capital punishment based on a due process. However, in the real world, secularism persecutes those who renounce it or become Muslims, restricts them, limits their chances to succeed, make it difficult to find a job, excludes them from certain positions and attacks them on the media. In fact, there are cases when secularism has banned the practice of the religion of Islam, as it was the case of Albania for five decades, which declared secular atheism as its official religion. Even currently, certain countries apply fines, including jail, for women who cover their faces for religious reasons. So, the western secularism, indeed, punishes those who renounce it in a more dishonest, insidious and well-organized way, contrary to what they propagate, such as freedom and liberty. These are slogans and lies, not reality.

On the other hand, Islam is fair and transparent. It clearly tells people that you are encouraged to embrace it, as it is the ultimate truth and the only God-revealed religion unaltered and unchanged, as it is the best way to rectify the worldly and the spiritual affairs, but it warns them against any political game – by claiming to embrace it and then renounce it, by giving the impression that this religion is false, or as an attempt to infiltrate into a Muslim society and then start a political activity against them.

If we look at Islam’s history at its very beginning, this is exactly what the corrupt Jews of Madinah attempted to do in the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). As a strategy to spread doubts and confusion among Muslims, a group of corrupt Jews made a plan to accept Islam in the morning and renounce it in the evening, by giving the impression that it is a false religion. Of course, in that time, Jews were more knowledgeable than the Arabs because they had a book, i.e., Torah, so they were recognized as being learned and scholars. Therefore, they wanted to use the strategy of accepting Islam in the morning and then renouncing it in the evening in order to give the message to people that this religion, i.e., Islam, is false, that’s why they left it. This story has been reported by the divine revelation, “And a fraction of the People of the Book said: ‘Believe in the morning what has been revealed to those who believe, and then deny it in the evening that they may thus retract (from their faith),” (Quran 3:72). However, with the introduction of the capital punishment of apostates, the corrupt Jews could not use that strategy any longer.

As it is clear from this historical context, the capital punishment for apostates is a legal mechanism against political strategies of the enemies that Muslims face. The Quran gives a precious insight into the fact that in this world there are enemies who make plans. This is the real world. To this very day, we see clear plans of the West against Muslims. When the western secularists speak of freedom and liberty, they falsely what to convince Muslims to relax, as no one is planning against them while the reality is completely the opposite.

Anyway, genuinely speaking, there is no acceptable reason for a Muslim or a recent convert to abandon Islam in an Islamic country. Are they looking for a better God? Are they trying to free themselves from laws? – this cannot happen. Laws will not change only because one claims to not believe in God. Besides, if a Muslims loses faith and wants to embrace another religion, they are free to leave that country and go live in another society, where they think is better.

In reality, there is one major reason why certain people seek to abandon Islam publicly and even spread their propaganda in a Muslim society: when they are paid by other countries and political entities – the enemies of Islam – to do so. So, when a Muslim renounces the religion of Islam publicly – with the intention to spread his or her propaganda in a Muslim country, ruled by a Muslim government, he or she is either a direct spy of other countries and paid by them – the enemies of Islam who make plans against Islam and Muslims, or they are foolish and stupid who are being used by others. Either case, we are not dealing with a genuine pursuit of truth and happiness. We are talking about political plans and agendas.

Having said that, Islam is not at all afraid of logical debates, questions, arguments, discussions and research on the validity or truthfulness of the divine revelation. Any Muslim who has doubts, they can raise questions. They are most welcomed. At the same time, Islam does not promote a spy society and the investigation and reporting of personal sins and shortcomings. However, the religion of Islam – as the only true and divine religion and whose enemies are plenty, does not tolerate spies and agents, who infiltrate into Muslim societies and want to spread their misguided political ideologies against Islam and Muslims, not because they are motivated by the truth, but mainly because they are spies paid by the enemies of Islam.

To conclude, the Islamic criminal code prescribes a capital punishment for apostates – for those who renounce Islam publicly in a Muslim society ruled by a Muslim government. It goes without saying that the execution is subject to a very strict legal investigation and due process and is applicable only and only if there is a Muslim government. In reality, it is barely applied. At the same time, Islam is the most clear, transparent and merciful religion. It does not promote the concept of spying on people and looking for their personal sins, contrary to the western secularism, which promotes espionage, spying on people, looking for mistakes, ruining people’s reputations by making public their mistakes and shortcomings, by excluding them from a normal life if they have a criminal record, by even applying persecution on the family members of a person who is considered a political enemy. Islam, however, does not tolerate those spies and agents who are infiltrated in a Muslim society, who appear to accept the religion of Islam and then renounce it, in order to spread chaos. This shows the confidence of Islam in the divine truthfulness, as well as it teaches Muslims that there are enemies out there who plot and make plans against them, who would not spare any strategy to fight against them, as it was the case of the corrupt Jews in the time of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

The punishment for apostates does not contradict one of the most important principles of Islam, “Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood. So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.” Quran 2:256.

The western secularists do not care and have no interests in defending religions freedom. Their concern is simply their agenda against Islam and its annihilation, so by promoting religious freedom in Muslim countries and criticizing the concept of legal punishment for apostates, they want to pave the way for spies and agents in Islamic societies and their activism to bring down the foundation of Islam. It’s all about politics, not about genuine freedom.
