Socialist ideology, of which communism is a part, is based on materialism; the task of advancing the intellectual leadership which this ideology is responsible for is materialism. That is, they consider the basis of everything to be matter. Socialists reject the before and after of life and believe only in the present life. They do not believe in a creator for creatures and even reject religion, and consider it the opium of life!
Thoughts of socialism
They believe that thought is the reflection of matter on the brain; and the followers of this ideology deny the spiritual aspect in things and consider only matter to be essential and eternal, and they believe in nature, man, and interests that are never separated from each other. And they even believe that one side of the human personality is formed by nature, and they consider materiality to be the measure of actions in life, and they say: “When materiality progresses, life also progresses.”
Regarding society, they believe that the earth, products, nature, and man are the complements of society. It is clear that the communist intellectual leadership was based on materialism, not on reason. The followers of this ideology do not believe in freedom of speech and economic freedom for individuals; and the followers of this school also believe in what the state determines.
The basis of this ideology is the things that the state considers sacred, and their system of life also originates from this materialism.
The economic system forms the first basis of this school, and is considered the general manifestation of systems. And in terms of implementing the system, the communist ideology believes that the state is the only organ that implements and advances the system through the army and the power of law.
Capitalist ideology
The capitalist ideology, of which democracy is a part, is an idea that originated from human thought. The basis of this ideology is the separation of religion from life; therefore, the separation of religion from life constitutes the basis of the idea and intellectual rule of this ideology. Since this ideology rejects religion in life, it creates a system of life for itself. In this ideology, the protection of freedom is considered very important, and the capitalist system originated from this freedom of property.
Democracy: It is a system that is derived from this ideology, the democratic system is based on the principle that each person creates a system of life for himself.
Democracy consists of two words:
1. Demos; meaning people.
2. Crati; meaning rule.
In this political system, the law and the opinion of humans are higher than divine commands. In a democratic system, religion is kept away from human life, to the extent that it is not allowed to interfere in life matters such as transactions, the system of government, and the social system.
This system has seen religion as a personal matter and has restricted it to places of worship such as mosques and other places of worship. This system has left the satisfaction of instincts free in any way and manner. In this system, the people were made the source of power, therefore, they themselves regulate the law as they wish and act according to it. The democratic system believes that government is a contract between the ruler and the people, and the ruler rules according to the will of the people.
The main reason for the emergence of this ideology was the oppression of European and Roman kings and emperors; because they used religion to oppress the people, exploit them, and shed their blood; therefore, some intellectuals believed that religion should be separated from life and politics; They even finally agreed that the separation of religion from life is essential; these intellectuals did not accept the power of religion and religious men and completely rejected religion and did not give it the right to interfere in life’s affairs. They implicitly acknowledge that humans, nature and life have a creator of their own and accept resurrection after death and believe that life has nothing to do with its before and after. Also, the ideology of capitalism is an individual ideology, meaning that it does not pay attention to communities and for this purpose guarantees freedom for individuals; because it is these individuals who create communities.
This ideology is responsible for advancing the intellectual leadership of the separation of religion from life and in this ideology, the right of sovereignty belongs to individuals and not to the state; and the state is a means and not an end, but the state in this system is the implementer and enforcer of the law that they themselves have set.
1. Doubting the Communist Ideology
Since the communist ideology was briefly explained above, it became clear that the intellectual basis of this ideology is matter, and they considered matter to be eternal and ancient, which is a completely false belief; because reason does not accept that matter is eternal and that all things have come into being from it without a creator in between; (They reject the spiritual aspect of things and say: “There is no creator beyond the universe, the heavens, etc.”)
As stated above, this belief is completely false; because this ideology is against nature, against reason, and without rational contentment; because it is not possible for matter to be necessary and eternal. When a person thinks deeply, he comes to the conclusion that these skies, mountains, stars, seas, the creation of night and day, months and years, and this entire system of existence with this special order, could they have come into existence without a Creator? Reason will never accept that the existence of these things was a random event and they came into existence without a Creator. This ideology originates from human thought and is never capable of solving human problems, because it rejects the existence of God (Allah) and says that there is no Creator at all.
The communist system also prohibits individual ownership of the means of production and places them in the ownership of the state; therefore, the communist ideology is an ideology of infidelity, its thoughts are infidelity, and its system is an infidel system, and it contradicts Islam in general and in detail; because Islam has proven that matter is created and is not eternal, but perishable.
Islam also proves that man, the universe, and everything in it are created for a Creator (Allah Almighty); and it also proves that the system comes only from Allah Almighty, not from the result of the evolution and transformation of matter or means of production, or man.
Islam proves that society consists of man, thoughts, feelings, and systems, and what distinguishes society is the existence of a system in which it is implemented; therefore, a society in which the Islamic system is implemented is an Islamic system, even if the tools in it are not Islamic; And a society in which the capitalist system is implemented is a capitalist society, and a society in which the communist system is implemented is a communist society.
