Social justice is a concept that has been considered
since ancient times and has been advocated and promised by all religions,
regimes and social sects. Only with social justice is it possible to establish
a well-organized and systematic society without any hatred or grudge among its
individuals and classes.
Social justice means that everyone gets his due in
proportion to his work, knowledge, talents and success, and no one is misused
or exploited. Social justice means to recognize the right to live, even for a
person who does the least amount of work. It is a primary requirement of social
justice that each working individual shall reach a minimum living standard.
Social justice does not mean social equality. It
would not be justice but injustice for everybody to have the same income, just
as it is for all the students in a class, whether successful or not, to pass
their courses. Neither in nature nor in society, nor elsewhere, does absolute
equality exist.
Judicial equality means to apply the same treatment
to people in the same cases and conditions. It is both unnecessary and
impracticable to look for or to desire social and especially economic equality,
since it does not conform to the concept of justice. The point under
consideration is not how to divide and distribute the existing stock according
to the number of heads, but how to provide the conditions for working and
earning for everyone equally and to ensure that everybody shall get the
equivalent of his labour and shall receive his due.
Social justice secures the most appropriate
distribution of the national income and eliminates exploitation and violation.
It prevents the accumulation of capital in the hands of only a certain and very
small group. It gives every one the right to lead a life according to his own
standards. It establishes a society with no
hostility among its clases and communities.
Individuals of such a society feel secure concerning their present and future.
Social justice can be realized through a nationalistic view and a
system of a mixed economy with a greater emphasis on its liberalistic
component.
Nationalism is the zeal used to improve a nation.
Nationalism means to love the nation one belongs to, to work for its progress,
to defend and maintain its national values, institutions, religion and
traditions. The system that produces the best and the most fruitful form of
social justice is the religion of Islam. Muslims believe that they are brothers
to one another and love one another as such. They do not even attack
non-Muslims’ property, life and chastity. The religion of Islam provides mutual
love and help among people, prevents disunion, commands working and earning
money in a halâl way, gives every working person his due and protects
everybody’s property. Every Muslim, being contented with his earnings, lives in
comfort and peace. Nobody harms others’ property and lands. Those who know what
social justice is and who are sincere in their cause must revere and support
Islam.
Socialism does not mean social justice. Despite their
common nomenclature, they are different and even quite opposite. They are like
îmân and kufr (unbelief), that is, one of them cannot exist where the other is.
Socialism defends enmity against individual
ownership, centralized state control of all the means of production and trade,
establishment of a dictatorship, enmity against religion, turning all the
working people into labourers, and annihilating the ideas of religion, history,
nation, country and state. Except for very little food, clothing, essentials of
a home life and one or two rooms, which can only keep a person alive, all the
income and earnings of an individual are taken away from him. Thus, people are
deprived of every kind of enterprise, competition, exploration, belief and
improvement. All their talents and personalities are done away with. Like
slaves or robots controlled with severe oppression and torture by a single,
cruel and merciless center, they are employed until exhausted of all their
energy.
Today, socialism has become a mask and a tool for the
dictatorship of red and yellow imperialisms. If one or more of the above-mentioned
principles of socialism are applied mildly or not applied at all, it is called national
socialism. If all of them are
applied with torture and murder, it is called revolutionary
socialism
or communism. The terms socialism and communism are, so to speak, the first and
last names of the philosophy of nihilism. Both of them make man worship matter
and sensuous desires. Making him unaware of Allâhu
ta’âlâ and of his own soul and conscience, they let him live only for
food, like beasts. And the governing, dictatorial minority, like mad dogs,
attack and murder the people and one another insidiously, perfidiously. Thus,
millions of people are murdered in Russia and China every year.
Communism is not only cruel and barbarous but also
insidious, beguiling and contagious. With cunning methods and devilish
persistence, it works relentlessly and without getting exhausted. It not only
can assume various guises but also knows how to hit the weak, loose points of
its target area. Taking advantage of distress and poverty and spoiling the
social order through provocative methods, it brings about class conflicts. It
spins networks of espionage and propaganda like a spider’s web. Distributing money,
it easily entraps base, mean, ignoble people in its red net. Then, threatening
them with death, it makes them commit every evil. It plays well its devilish,
fine trick of getting the utmost use out of them in disintegrating and
destroying its target from within.
Once a country falls under its terrible talons, there
is no hope for salvation. Communism is a political catastrophe as dangerous and
as fatal to a country and its people as cancer is to individual life.
One should not deceive oneself by supposing communism
to be a system of one of those political parties that are founded on democracy
and, under the roof of freedom with its future destiny completely dependent
upon the people’s will, will come to power and fall by their votes and, as
observed in the free world, follow a civilized and humanitarian approach. By
believing its attractive and alluring words, one should not get placed in the
position of a poor frog seized by the venomous teeth of a big snake.
What communists try to show as a brilliant “Garden of
Paradise” to credulous people at a distance is the pitfall of murder concealed
with the cover of propaganda, but full of the bones from millions of innocent
people.
Those who take too much and become intoxicated out of their
curiosity to taste the doses of propaganda scattered on the lands of the free
world by red enchanters, who fall in love with
communism under the influence of the illusions and fancies caused
by this intoxication, turn away in remorse and regret when they recover.
In 1952, Masentso, a communist leader in Italy, was
sentenced to three years of imprisonment by an Italian court for his
destructive activities. Somehow he managed to escape from prison and fled to
Czechoslovakia, which had already attained the “Garden of Paradise.” Upon
waking up in the midst of his dream and seeing the bitter, naked truth, he
could not stay there long. For a while, he tried to conceal his regret and
disillusionment, but at last he fled to a free country, Austria, where he asked
to be handed over to Italy with a view to completing the three years of
imprisonment he had been rightfully sentenced to. He said, “Life in Italian
prisons is more comfortable and better than living in communist countries,
which we have assumed to be Paradise.” A number of the names of those who, with
the same regret and disillusionment, have escaped from that red pitfall of
murder are known by the free world: Kravchenko, Sakharov, Kasyanova, and many
others. It is a well-known fact that nearly one and a half million distressed
people, most of whom were villagers and workers, fled to the West and took
refuge in various free countries by taking their chance when the Second World
War tore a gap in the iron curtain. Then, how will those eccentric leftists
explain the lamentations of these doomed people who managed to escape from the
red world, which they try to misrepresent as “Paradise”?
The masked big red serpent promises factories and other
industrial lines to the workers, vast land areas to the peasants, and peace,
freedom and prosperity to the people of the countries it aims to swallow. Let
us now see what it bestowed upon the Russian people and upon Caucasus,
Turkestan, Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and its other satellites.
Instead of the factories and lands it had promised to the workers and peasants,
it offered not only the vast, blank Siberia, which is covered with its
perpetual snow and ornamented with its fifty-degrees-below-zero temperatures,
it also gave them the chance of easily dying by felling trees in wild forests,
with a hungry belly, in that unaccustomed cold. Instead of the freedom
promised, there was handcuffing and gagging slavery; instead of welfare, it
gave tearful destitution, wretchedness and hunger. And it made countries into
prison camps surrounded by walls of shame and isolated behind
iron curtains. From 1927 to 1939, seventeen million innocent
people were annihilated in Russia, alone, where freedom, peace and prosperity
were promised. These are no stories, but naked facts.
Before the revolution and civil war in Russia, many
socialist parties appeared all of a sudden. Labourer Democrats, Peasant
Democrats, Bolsheviki, Mensheviki, Rightist and Leftist Liberals, and the Kadet
Party were amongst them. Each of them came forward with different ideas and
propaganda. They made speeches before every gathering whether big or small.
These activities were persistent in villages, factories, small workshops,
squares and even on narrow streets. Explaining their programs with attractive
words and with all kinds of promises to the people, these parties deceived and
gathered well-to-do people as well as the unemployed. This turmoil went on for
months. The unending speeches and noise amazed the people, who became too
stupefied to distinguish between right and wrong. The people were next to being
unconscious and intoxicated.
The most powerful of these parties was the one that
made the most promises, i.e. the Bolshevik Communist Party. They addressed only
the workers and peasants. They said that the workers and peasants would take
the places of their employers and become equal shareholders in businesses and
lands, that there would no longer be slavery to the rich, that they would live
in the apartments where the rich lived, that the rich would clean and sweep up
the streets, that the peasants would be made landowners, and that the lands of
the farmers would be distributed to the working peasants.
What was common in the propaganda of the Bolshevik
Party and the Labourers Party was the promise of ending their servility and
slavery to the rich. They forecasted that the day of salvation was near at
hand.
These socialist and communist parties repeatedly said
that they struggled to protect the rights of the workers and peasants so as to
provide them with a high standard of life. If the workers and peasants followed
them, they would share the honour of being saviors.
“O you workers and peasants! If you wish to be saved from claws
of the bourgeoise, capitalists, lords and all other exploiters, vote for the
Communist Party and gather around it,” they said.
Especially ignorant workers and peasants could not
differentiate between what would be good and what
would be bad for themselves, so it was easy for them to fall victim to the
lies. The wretched and disastrous situation of today’s Russian workers is, sad
to say, the consequence of their inattentiveness and stupidity.
At the beginning of the revolution, the communist
authorities pushed around many gullible people like mad dogs and had everything
ruined. They butchered innocent people without interrogation. Most communist
leaders were Jewish, who revengefully made great efforts in setting the Russian
people against one another. Lenin (d. in 1342/1924) and Trotsky (sent by Stalin
into exile in Mexico where he died in 1358/1940), following in the footsteps of
Karl Marx (d. in 1300/1883), carried on his policy of massacre under the banner
of communism. The murders they committed were so unsightly that people with a
conscience could not admit or even believe them. First social classes were made
hostile to one another. Then it became hard to differentiate the friends from
the enemies all over Russia, so much so that it was not known who was with
whom. This gave birth to civil war, which made fathers fight against their sons
and brothers against brothers, and Russia was thoroughly covered with blood.
The civil war lasted for years, and millions of people died. The country was
burned and ruined everywhere. All public works stopped, and unemployment,
destitution and illnesses destroyed people.
Before the revolution, however, communists, with the
view of dominating the whole of Russia, had founded a cruel administration and
established a dictatorship that had given so many promises to the workers and
peasants that their ignorant heads had assumed that they would attain a
paradise life. It took the workers and peasants a few years to realize that
they had obtained nothing, that they had been fooled, trapped, and plundered
from head to foot. Yet it was too late. Now the dictatorial state was
preventing them from even sympathizing with one another and was organizing
massacres from time to time.
Soviet Russian President K. Vocoshilov described the following
event to American Ambassador William C. Bulitt during a feast given in Russia
in 1934: “In 1919, I persuaded ten thousand officers of the Czar to surrender
together with their spouses, promising that they would not be harmed if they
would surrender. They believed me and surrendered. I had all ten
thousand officers executed together with their sons. And I sent
their wives and daughters to brothels so that they would be used by Russian
troops.” He also added that the destitute women could not endure the horrible
treatment they had been subjected to and died within three months.
Shortly after the 1917 revolution, Czar Nikola and all his household, including his children in cradles, were killed in the forests of Bryansk. The number of people who were killed or died of hunger and destitution, as a result of the bloody revolution that reigned over Russia from 1917 until 1947, was 63,800,000. The following figures and documents are given to demonstrate manifestly what an irreligious regime, founded on blood and bones, will bring to the countries it invades. These documents are collected from very reliable sources. How unfortunate those are who do not wake up!
