Why does islam spread inevitably?

2020. november 11. - 17:19

The below video on the decrease of some religions and increase of others in the last decades has caused confusion by some analyzers.

The numbers in the video can be argued, however the rates express reality. The expansion of Islam appears very intensively and no wonder about that. Many thinks that the main reason is the overpopulation of Muslims. This is only one side of the story but there are several other reasons, too.

  • There is no church in Islam. Church is forbidden! We cannot have Vatican, Pope and bishops. We must have uniquely Quran only. In our case Quran substitutes church, therefore human weakness, mistakes and fallacy are excluded. In places where Islamic organizations appear these will be all vanished by time and remains the pure Quran which is inherited from one generation to another.
  • Human factor in any disciplines of Islam can enter only after Quran. So, subjective parts can enter by interpretations, sharia explanations and jurisdiction. In case of Christianity human factors enter with Bible and its contemporary versions, therefore the basic doctrines rely on man-made work.
  • If priesthood over-estimates its role and stands firmly between God and man, the essence of teachings will be transferred to man instead of God. Initially they sell faith as mystery but later the mystery becomes their daily product. Everything what have to be the deepest and most serious, for a modern thinking citizen becomes anachronistic and infantile. As a result, we see empty temples and weak dioceses.
  • If a religion becomes servant of a state, the religious life loses its motivation.
  • If a state forces its secular laws to religious organizations, materialize their everyday life, including financial status and incomes, the transience of state will be forced to something what is eternal and is above any law.
  • If one's individual role in responsibility ceases because “Jesus has redeemed us all or priest will absolve our sins”, the existence and maintenance of spiritual space becomes pointless. It is matter of time and the empty place will be filled out by another teaching.
  • If hatred, segregation and the supremacy of an elite is the main message of an organization the spirituality will be vanished and words become superficial.
  • If spiritual space is empty, people will instinctively be looking for it due to the vacuum of its absence. In case they don’t find it in their own faith they will find it in other. Word of God on long term is always exalted, no matter how many human attempts try to pull it down to human dimension.

If ye help not (your leader), (it is no matter): for Allah did indeed help him, when the Unbelievers drove him out: he had no more than one companion; they two were in the cave, and he said to his companion, "Have no fear, for Allah is with us": then Allah sent down His peace upon him, and strengthened him with forces which ye saw not, and humbled to the depths the word of the Unbelievers. But the word of Allah is exalted to the heights: for Allah is Exalted in might, Wise. (Quran 9:40)

It was a striking example when the Prophet was hunted out of Makkah and performed his famous Hijrah. His enemies plotted for his life. He had already sent his followers on to Madinah. Ali had volunteered to face his enemies in his house. His single companion was Abu Bakr. They two concealed themselves in the cave of Thaur, three miles from Makkah, for three nights, with the enemy prowling around in great numbers in fruitless search of them. "We are but two," said Abu Bakr. "Nay," said Muhammad, "for Allah is with us." Faith gave their minds peace, and Allah gave them safety. They reached Madinah, and a glorious chapter opened for Islam. The forces that helped them were not seen, but their power was irresistible.
Literally, "The second of two," which afterwards became Abu Bakr's proud title.

We Muslims are aware of our own weakness, ignorance and chaotic Ummah. However, we are aware also that destiny of Islam is not in our hands. If it was in the hand of humans it would have been destroyed long ago. Only Allah alone keeps His Words and Teachings purely and this is the real strength of Islam. From a distance we look really a disgusting ignorant ragtag, however anybody who tastes Islam from outside he can see that this “ragtag” sticks together by a cohesion what can never be achieved by any state or earthly power. And this will last like that till the end of times. Amen.
