Nothing in this world is a coincidence, and neither was the darkness that the world was dragged into in the 20th and 21st centuries. Allah, through these painful stages in history, showed a very important example to humanity and He still wants them to see it. The people need to understand: If they forget that they were created for love, brotherhood, friendship and altruism, and if they choose to be divided and fight instead of uniting and getting stronger, and if they get carried away by false ideologies and movements and believe that “killing and fighting is necessary to improve,” they will get what they want: fighting and suffering. And they will ultimately see that conflicts will not bring improvement, but only destruction.
Darwinism and Its Derivative Communism Is Based on a So-called Need to Fight and Conflict
Dialectics which first originated in ancient Greece and meant “debate” was described by Heraclitus (576-480) with the following words: “...all things come into being by a conflict of opposites.” To Heraclitus, conflict is the father of everything. Therefore, there has to be a conflict between the thesis and the anti-thesis. If the defenders of a thesis are going to be defeated by the other side, it has to be through war and blood and the other side must be destroyed at all costs. Then the synthesis will turn into a new thesis and the same fight and war should continue at full speed.
Hegel and Marx, who followed centuries after him, called it “conflict,” if not directly war and it certainly didn’t take long before the bloody communist leaders perceived it as war and massacre. They believed in the necessity of war and considered it the basic condition for Marxism. Even though the green communists today reject this concept of war, communism requires brutal ambushes, guerilla war, and massacres without any reservations. The current massacres in Syria, the bloodshed by the communist PKK in the Southeastern Anatolia is proof enough of that.
Every Country Facing Terrorism Today Is Actually Suffering from Communism
Every country that is suffering from terrorism, including Turkey, is actually fighting communism. Communism is very much alive today, and even if it’s not officially recognized; it’s controlling parts of North America, Northern Europe and almost the whole of the Middle East. Then there are the countries which are officially under communist rule such as many South America countries, China and of course, North Korea. This communist, Marxist rule brings terrorism to the whole world. Those who shut their eyes to this very obvious Marxist threat are still looking for solutions to terrorism with never-ending TV debates. However, at the same time, they continue to teach their students dialectics in their schools. Their own children’s minds are filled with lies that two opposing ideas need to fight each other and the history is full of such conflicts, and that only such conflicts can bring improvement and benefit to societies. Terrorists themselves are also indoctrinated with the same lies. Ironically, both communist countries and capitalist countries provide this education; the Marxist state of mind therefore continues to progress in every country with secretive but very firm steps.
There is another point that has to be kept in mind: Capitalism is not a blow dealt to Marxism. On the contrary, according to Marx, capitalism is an important requirement for societies to move forward to communism. Communism is simply lying in ambush, waiting to ensnare people and societies which became selfish under capitalism, which have abandoned their moral, religious and human values, thinking about themselves alone. The latest economic crisis played into the hands of communism. According to Marxists and communists, everything is now ready. Anyone wishing to understand this phenomenon better can take a closer look at the many problems in the world.
The Existence of Opposites Does Not Require Wars
There have always been opposites. The conflict between good and evil has existed since the beginning of the world. However, this conflict has to be defined accurately. The existence of opposites does not require war. The opposites can stand up for themselves through communication, and intellectual debate, presentation of evidence, all within the bounds of love and respect; no one can be forced to accept any idea and no one should be killed simply because he doesn’t want to accept it. No war has ever brought about definitive improvement to any society so far. The bloody wars and conflicts of the 20th century, the endless fights of today, just help the armaments industry which makes money over weapons production and destroys people, civilizations, technology, cities and entire economies. There can be no progress or improvement with people who are becoming more and more frightened every day. There can be no going forward when people keep getting hungrier, more malnourished, less educated, less productive. The cities won’t be better when their infrastructure and technology is destroyed with bombs and jetfighters. No society can move forward with the younger generation dying out. The atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki did not bring anything other than wholesale destruction that lingered through generations. The bloody dialectics introduced by Marxism never brought that imaginary progress to societies and it will not do so in the future. If we allow that, the world will be engulfed with even worse disasters, and everywhere will be drowning in blood.
Darwinism is the philosophical background of many conflicts in the world. The theory of evolution claims that all species evolved from a single cell (whose origin Darwinists can never explain) as a result of a rather nebulous string of coincidences. According to them, fighting is one of the elements of this imaginary evolutionary process. The basis of this brutal ideology, which claims that the living things can evolve only through fighting, is about the survival of the fittest. Introducing this twisted Darwinist religion as a scientific theory and including it in curriculums all around the world has brought upon a mass public deception and those twisted Darwinist ideas found a fertile breeding ground, which ultimately led to loss of millions of lives through various wars.
The Sole Solution against Bloody Ideologies Is Ending the One-Sided Education Favoring Darwinism
Opposing ideas can give rise to something better only through love and compassion, respect, freedom of thought and scientific evidence. Not through force or violence. It is high time for everyone to understand the reason behind the disasters handicapping the world. Marxism provides the rationale for war; Marxist societies set the stage for that in a covert manner. The most effective way to stop that is through showing that this bloody dialectics is a false scientific rationale to justify the wars. It should be said all around that the so-called dialectics of nature is pure nonsense, and as much as there are predators in nature, there are living things that act in a very selfless and altruistic manner too. A fast way to achieve this would be swiftly amending the education system that teaches young minds this bloody dialectic idea all around the world. This world is not a battlefield, neither for us, nor for other beings. The world will be beautiful only with love, as revealed by Allah in all the Divine religions. Allah wants love from us. Allah wants us to be one, brothers and sisters. Allah loves to love and to be loved. This world will change only if we follow Allah’s orders and “love.”
Bediüzzaman Points to the Importance of Intellectual Struggle against Darwinism and Materialism
The great Islamic scholar Bediuzzaman, who devoted his entire life to an intellectual struggle against disbelief, explained in his works that disbelief was sustained by Darwinism and materialism. He, therefore, said that an intellectual struggle against such ideologies would play a vital role.
Bediüzzaman explains the impact of materialism on unbelievers trying to ambush him and his friends:
“And thirdly: To corrupt them with the enticing vices and stupefying, pleasurable poisons of materialist philosophy and civilization; and destroy their solidarity; and disparage their leaders with treacherous lies; and discredit their ways with some of the principles of science and philosophy…” (Bediuzzaman, Risale-i Nur Collection, The Rays, Thirteenth Ray)
As very wisely put by Bediüzzaman, the unbelievers sought to cheat believers with temporary and tempting worldly pleasures to nullify the intellectual works of Bediuzzaman, and with the encouragement from materialistic culture, tried to impair the unity and solidarity of the believers and slandered Bediuzzaman repeatedly. However they invariably failed.
Bediüzzaman says that Darwinism and materialism will get stronger especially in the End Times and that disbelief will be more widespread propelled by these two ideologies; however the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) will put an end to this trouble through an effective intellectual struggle. As Bediüzzaman explained, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will carry out this duty perfectly, and will intellectually end Darwinism and materialism and help save people’s faith.
“The first: Under the influence of science and philosophy, and the spread of the materialist and naturalist epidemic into humanity, the first duty [of Hazrat Mahdi (as)] is first of all to save faith as to entirely silence philosophy and materialistic thinking.” (Emirdag Addendum, p. 259)
Bediüzzaman says that Darwinism and materialism are the mainstays of the antichrist, and that the Prophet Jesus (as) will carry out a great intellectual struggle against that mischief, effectively ending it:
“… at the end of time the religion of Christianity will be purified and divest itself of superstition in the face of the current of unbelief and atheism born of naturalist philosophy, and will be transformed into Islam. At this point, the collective personality of Christianity will kill the fearsome collective personality of irreligion with the sword of heavenly revelation; so too, representing the collective personality of Christianity, Jesus (as) will [spiritually] kill the antichrist, who represents the collective personality of irreligion, that is, he will kill atheistic thought [he will intellectually eliminate it].” (The Letters, First Letter, p. 22)
“... will [intellectually] kill the gigantic collective personality of materialism and irreligion which the antichrist will form – for the antichrist will be killed by Jesus’ (as) sword [of knowledge] – and destroy his ideas and disbelief, which are atheistic.” (Flashes, 5th Flash, p. 589)
Bediüzzaman Said Nursi makes it very clear that it is Darwinism and materialism that push people away from the moral values of religion and lead them to disbelief. He explains that Muslims will carry out a great intellectual struggle against these two twisted ideas under the leadership of the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as). By the grace of Allah, these ideologies will be ended by these two blessed personages and the moral values of Islam will come to reign throughout the world.
