behave at every moment of their lives and in all situations. If a
Muslim follows his own logic and way of thinking rather than following
the path given by the Qur'an in any given situation, then Allah will
bestow no success on that road and he will not obtain the results he
desires.
As with individuals, He hasalso shown Islamic societies the path to
follow in order to achieve success, to possess an auspicious power
serving excellent material and psychological means, to attain
well-being, and to make progress and avoid defeat and oppression. This
road shown by Allah is to strive on His path, using knowledge,
culture, science, philosophy, art and ideas, until corruption is
eliminated from the world, until bloodshed, oppression, persecution
and injustice come to an end, until religion is Allah's, until the
moral values of the Qur'an rule the world and, until people live by
the faith as it was in the time of our Prophet (saas):
Strive against them untilthere is no more corruption and the religion
is Allah's alone...(Surat al-Anfal, 39)
One of the paths that Allahshows in order for Muslimsto be victorious
in this intellectual struggle, is for the Muslims to be united. In
other words, it is for thewhole Islamic world to be united, without
regard to sect, culture, practice, race,ethnic origins, community or
group, to collect aroundone spiritual leader and towage the
intellectual struggle like buildings welded together by lead.
Allah loves those who fight in His Way in ranks like well-built walls.
(Surat as-Saff, 4)
It is unacceptable, in the face of these explicit pronouncements by
Allah, to suggest methods that have no place in the Qur'an in the face
of Muslims' pains and sufferings. It is incompatible with good
conscience to direct to paths that will cause Muslims to follow
techniques that lead to defeat and that will encourage passivity,
instead of strengthening their enthusiasm for the intellectual
struggle, developing their fervor, and increasing their determination.
Muslims must not sit back apathetically when corruption rules the
world.Irreligion is inflicting so many scourges on mankind and the
voices ofinnocent women, children and old people across the world are
crying out, "O Lord, save us with help from Your Presence." What
Muslims must do is eliminate the source of this corruption,
philosophically and intellectually, using all their might and means,
science, reason and technology.
The source of this corruption is irreligion andmaterialism, and
Darwinism that prepares the ground for them. As the Master Bediuzzaman
says, "... science and philosophy are now dominant and THE PLAGUEOF
MATERIALISM AND NATURALISM [Darwinism and the theory of evolution] has
spread AMONG MANKIND." what needs to be done is, "BEFORE EVERYTHING
BELIEF SHOULD BE SAVED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT SILENCES PHILOSOPHY AND
MATERIALISM [materialism and Darwinism]."
By Allah's leave, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will completely perform this task
in the End Times in which we areliving, as imparted by the Master
Bediuzzaman. All believers fervently awaiting Hazrat Mahdi (as)and
wanting to be this holy individual's supporters, followers and
fore-runners must also support this great work bystriving and
mobilizing with all their resources"until corruption vanishes from the
earth."
