Adam (pbuh), all prophets have been the genuine representatives of intel-
lectual freedom and respect to views. The essence of all the primary con-
cepts – freedom of justice, not putting any pressure upon anyone, treating
everyone as a first class citizen, respecting and trusting people, not judg-
ing anyone due to his views - which are associated with democracy, are
present in the morality of religion. Throughout history, people have
learned these concepts from the righteous religions revealed by God and
witnessed its most beautiful examples during the times when people lived
by the righteous religions.
When we look at the times when people were oppressed due to their
opinions and their different ideologies, members of various religions were
humiliated, while the arts, science and architecture died out; times when
people lost their joy in living and almost turned into robots, or when book
burnings, murders, massacres, genocides became widespread, we see the
influence of irreligious, atheist ideologies or those who misinterpreted
religious morality with a radical mindset by distancing it from its essence.
Once God's righteous religion is lived in the form it is commanded by
God, the true justice, democracy, respect and love, that people have been
longing for, can be experienced. Very soon, democracy, brotherhood, love,
friendship and peace will, by God's leave, dominate the world and people
will experience the joy, bliss and abundance of faith as much as they can.
As one can clearly see from the signs of the verses, hadiths of our Prophet
(pbuh) and words of great Islamic scholars, the time in which we live is the
End Times.
The difficult and troublesome days of the End Times will, in this cen-
tury, come to end, and the world will enter a brand new, bright era. Com-
municating the Oneness and Unity of God in the most beautiful and wise
manner, and introducing people to Islam as described in the Qur'an and
lived in the Age of Felicity lays a very important foundation for the bright
days that we will attain in the near future.
Do they then seek the judgement of the Time of Ignorance?
Who could be better at giving judgement than God for people with cer-
tainty? (Qur'an, 5:50)
