Al-Marsad Newspaper: The writer, Ahmed Bani Qais, revealed the reasons for the existence of atheism and takfir, and the dangerous thought that must be confronted.
Atheism and atonement
Ahmed Bani Qais said, in his article, titled “Atheism and Takfir… The Dangerous and Most Dangerous,” published in the Makkah newspaper, that the existence of different intellectual and religious approaches is a characteristic of humanity, and the impact of these approaches varies according to the extent of their penetration into societies and their gaining the legitimacy of adoption and promotion. However, the dangers of these curricula and their validity vary according to the degree of their compatibility with reason, logic, and societal orientation, and we, as a society, like any other society, are not immune from that.
intellectual threats
He explained: “The reference to our society leads us to talk regarding the intellectual and doctrinal threats it faces, which may contribute to destabilizing its security and stability. The two most prominent threats that our society faces in this regard are “atheism” and “takfirism”, which despite their intellectual and doctrinal contradiction, their danger is constant and cannot be ignored, but must be ignored. Confronting him and working to undermine him and take the hands of everyone who represents him.
The truth of life
He pointed out: “Before we discuss the consequences of these two threats that we suffer from, let us first ask regarding the reasons for their existence, and let us first start by addressing the reasons for the existence of “atheism”, which we find when scrutinized lies in the inability of everyone who adopts this approach to reach a religious interpretation that helps him understand the reality of life. its nature and how it is formed.
extreme approach
And he continued: “While the other phenomenon, which is that which is represented by the resorting of a percentage of Muslims to adopt an extremist and bloody approach known as the “takfir” approach, the main reason for its existence was the adoption of corrupt religious orientations and interpretations that allowed its members to expel everyone who does not agree with their religious and doctrinal vision from the religion and the permissibility of intimidating him. Terrorize him and even kill him.
complicated process
And he added: “The one who meditates on the case of these two approaches sees very clearly that “atheism” despite its intellectual and doctrinal corruption, we find that its followers do not resort to physical violence as much as they resort to intellectual and philosophical debate, although their resort to this did not help them much in convincing others of its usefulness, which is what made the process of its spread Between the general public and his elite is a complex and complex process that is very difficult.”
atonement phenomenon
And he continued: “While we find that the followers of the “takfir” phenomenon allow themselves, as I mentioned above, to follow the bloody extremist approach without hesitation or separation, which makes its danger greater than the danger of “atheism”, and what confirms the greatness of this danger is that its followers play on the chord of religion, which, as we know, is popular. It is sweeping between the different segments of Muslim societies, which makes the process of those in charge of the “takfir” approach in luring those with little knowledge and knowledge of true and clear religion an easy and practical process capable of attracting and mobilizing them and filling their minds with dark and obscurantist ideas in the name of correcting adherence to religion and supporting it.
Good intentions
He concluded: “What must be known in conclusion is that clear thought is dangerous and must be confronted. It is thought that does not value human life and does not care or care regarding the instability and safety of its homeland and the continuity of its security and safety, no matter how this thought is encapsulated with slogans that appear at first glance benevolent, careful and good intentions while it is in Its reality is nothing but a peg used to achieve goals that have absolutely nothing to do with the meanings and purposes of the slogans raised.
