| Introduction
At first glance you may have been puzzled by the title "The Religion
of Irreligion" because "religion," as perceived by many, is usually associated
with Allah's revelation. Alternatively, there are other beliefs known as "false"
religions, like Buddhism and Hinduism. As the name suggests, "irreligion" is a
concept that rejects religion completely and denies the existence of Allah. 1
However, there exist today in every corner of the world particular systems
of belief adhered to as strictly as religion, yet they are never called
"religion." In this book such ideologies as materialism, communism, Darwinism
(the so-called scientific basis of those ideologies) and other systems
based on disbelief are referred to as "religions of irreligion." That
is simply because they have all become irreligious religions in themselves,
with a complete system of beliefs and practices. They all have their own
idolized leaders and immutable books which their followers learn by heart.
False religions spread rapidly and attract many adherents who are committed
to making the "religion of irreligion" prevail and perpetually oppose
the just and true religion (i.e., Islam), publishing books and articles
to spread propaganda in favor of their manmade religions.
Among the major obstacles encountered by adherents to irreligion is the Qur'an,
the only existing guide to the true path, revealed by Allah. The Qur'an gives
a detailed account of the struggle that is to be waged against false religions
and entrusts believers with this noble responsibility. At present there is a need
for faithful people to undertake the service of showing false religions to be
erroneous and to give serious effort to this cause.
Throughout the 20th century until today the religion of irreligion has,
perhaps for the first time in history, spread extensively. In the words
of the Qur'an, the followers of irreligion "use falsehood [thinking]
to invalidate thereby the truth."( Surah al-Kahf, 18:56)
That is why, especially in our age, it is of
great importance to take part in the noble struggle mentioned in the Qur'an and
refute ideologically all the tenets of irreligion. Allah gave important
information to His servants who take upon themselves this honorable duty:
"Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and
it destroys it, and thereupon it departs." (Surah al- Anbiya 21:18)
Therefore, we aim to eliminate falsehood by presenting
basic truths about matter and about Darwin's theory of evolution, which can be
found in the latter part of this book. |
