A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
0:08
Civilization, according to the concept of materialist disbelief,
0:13
whereas civilization, in the divine balance, is established upon two foundations:
0:18
belief in Allah and the Last Day, and knowledge.
0:22
The West, and disbelievers in general, are the exact opposite of this,
0:27
as they have been unable to reconcile knowledge with faith.
0:31
They established their civilization upon disbelief and atheism,
0:34
and thus it has brought destruction upon humanity.
0:37
Civilization in Islam has a purpose and an end goal based on monotheism and justice,
0:44
while the civilization of the disbelievers has no goal other than tyranny and domination,
0:49
and the enjoyment of the fleeting pleasures of this world, unrestrained by any moral boundary.
0:54
For them, there is no afterlife, no reckoning, and no punishment.
0:58
It suffices to review what the West has said about the great figures upon whom their civilization was built,
1:04
and to examine their characteristics so that we may know the reality of the disbelieving West,
1:09
and the icons they take pride in within their civilization.
1:13
If Hegel was a racist and a bigot, to the extent that when he wrote what he called the Eastern World,
1:21
he did not mention Islam, neither directly nor indirectly;
1:25
and if Voltaire was an atheist;
1:28
and if Julian Huxley was a Darwinist;
1:31
and if Bertrand Russell preferred Nazism over capitalism;
1:36
and if one of the authors of the book The Suicide of the West was a bigoted priest;
1:43
and if Franz Kafka was a confused Jew;
1:47
and if Karl Marx was a dogmatic atheist;
1:51
and if Rousseau was a failure in upbringing;
1:54
and if James Joyce was a blasphemer;
1:57
and if David Hume was a skeptic;
2:00
and if Kant was a dreamer;
2:03
and if Einstein was a classicist;
2:06
and Spinoza was a believer in pantheism;
2:09
and if Freud was a resentful Jew;
2:13
then what is your foolish civilization, O people?
