our bourgeois-democratic revolution, this task too falls almost entirely on
the shoulders of the working class. 20

Lenin is saying that capitalists have the obligation to wage war
against religion, as they have in Europe; that because the capitalist class
does not exist in Russia, he and his party will undertake this war against
religion. His words show that in essence, the opposition between capi-
talism and Communism is an "inner conflict" only. Actually, these two
forces' common enemy is religion.
One of the most bloody-minded dictators communism ever gave rise
to, Joseph Stalin, also stated that among the funds transferred to other
countries for the advancement of communism, the only money that
went to waste was that sent to Turkey. Upon being asked about the rea-
son for it, he responded by saying that A Anatolia was still committed to
its religious traditions; thus, the propaganda activities will be able to
prove effective only after the Turks have been alienated from their cus-
toms by the European capitalists. 21
As can be clearly seen so far, ideas, philosophies and ideologies dis-
tant from religious morality, such as savage capitalism and communism,
are attempting to erode societies, alienate people from the absolute
truth, and alienate them from moral values and humanity, so as to make
them accept their own irreligious system. But none of their attacks
against religion can succeed at all.
Don't forget, many have fought against true religion in the past, dis-
obeying God's apostles and turning away from His holy Books. But in
the end, they always failed, as God brought their false systems down in
ruins and had His sincere servants with genuine faith prevail over these
false systems and those who adhered to them.
Their fate is the same: God afflicts some of those who fight against His
religion with troubles in this world, while others must wait for the Last
Day to receive their painful torment. As the Qur'an (40:4-6) announces,
No one disputes God's Signs except those who disbelieve. Do not let their
free movement about the earth deceive you. The people of Noah denied
the truth before them, and the Confederates after them. Every nation
planned to seize its Messenger and used false arguments to rebut the
truth. So I seized them, and how [awful] was My punishment! So your
Lord's Words about those who disbelieve proved true, that they are indeed
the Companions of the Fire.
