Islamic Ideology
Embrace the Quran, Let go the teachings of Mullahs, classic or contemporary
Many of the Taliban leaders and other terrorists who destroyed Afghanistan were also graduates of Deoband
By Syed Akbar Ali

“You only serve besides Him mere names that you made up, you and your forefathers. God never places any power in them. Kingship belongs only to God. He commanded that you shall not serve anything except Him. This is the perfect way of life, but most people do not know.”

Surah 12: 40

After reading, researching and also observing myself the repeated failure of Muslims throughout history, until now and also going into the future I have come to realize that this failure is simply because they have deviated from the simple, pure and unadulterated teachings of the Quran. Contrary to what the Western media says about the Quran and contrary to the fanatics hoisting aloft the Quran in their battle cries, the Quran has led me in the exact opposite direction from the fanatics. All the wrong things that they do in the name of religion – I just cannot find them anywhere in the Quran.

Every verse in the Quran should be made a pearl of wisdom for the Muslims which will easily make them successful in this life and the next. However, the Islamic countries rarely implement what is written in the Quran. Instead what they implement are the views of the priests, the religious scholars, the religious thinkers, the religious leaders and so on which are all fallible and which have failed over the past thousand years. These views are found written in the various books of theology which are also the cause of senseless argument, debate, hatred and violence for over a thousand years among the Muslims. But they just cannot let go of these old views. While ignoring the Quran they uphold the theology of the scholars as though it were written in stone. This is the main reason for the failure of the Islamic countries. If they still cannot see this obviously glaring truth, then no one can help the Muslims. They are doomed.
