RELIGIOUS RESPONSIBILITIES

Western classical economics is based on the idea of unlimited needs of individuals who face limited resources. The classical homo economicus is a rational and calculating person who seeks to maximize his happiness (utility). Individuals search for happiness is represented by an emotionless cost - benefit analysis of their decisions. More importantly, happiness is usually measured by meterial means.

Many cases were give many evidence that "material means" (natural resources) had turned the world into a lawless, and unjust, and had destruction moslems region, and killing of several hundred thousand moslems people. Look at this evidence:

First
, continously devastating condition of Palestinians, who have robbered their land by Israel (the tyrant, unjust, and ilegal authorizing) since 1948.

Second
, USA and NATO invation on Afghanistan (since 2002 until now) and Iraq (since 2003 until now), and create "puppet government" in Afghanistan an Iraq, had destruction moslems village and killings of several hundred thousand moslems people of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Third
, evil treatment of prisoners by USA Military in Abu Ghraib in Iraq (2004), and Guantanamo in Cuba region (since 2003 until now) are some of the major factors which have turned the world into a lawless, and unjust.

Thought, attitude, action, and behavior of USA, Israel, and NATO government to destruction moslems region, and killing several hundred thousand moslems people of the world, have described about their religion quality.

For this, God (Allah) punish their with economic collapse in 2008. The Holy Qur'an is explicit in this regard as God (Allah) has stated, "Truly, the religion on the sight of Allah is Islam" (Qur'an 3:19).

In another verse of The Holy Qur'an, God (Allah) has stated, "And whosoever desire a religion other that Islam, never will it accepted of him/her, and in the hereafter he/she will be in the ranks of those who are lost" (Qur'an 3:85).

God (Allah) has stated in The Holy Qur'an, "And to thee. We have sent The Book (The Holy Qur'an) in truth. This Qur'an confirming the scripture that came before it, and a witness over it" (Qur'an 5:48).

Islamic economics, unlike its Western counterpart, is a value driven discipline replete with moral values that limits individual's consumption, and imposes significant social and religious responsibilities on individuals as guardian of the natural environment for future generations.

Islamic economics is a value driven discipline. Individual moslem's choices are subordinate to the collective interests of a larger Islamic community. Accordingly, the collectivist social and religious norms of Islam guide the economic behavior of individual moslems. Hence, homo Islamicus, unlike its counterpart homo economicus, must be a paragon of values.

Islamic economics begins with the abundance of resources and assumes the limited needs of individuals. Accordingly, the problem of scarcity in classical economics is due to unnatural assumption of unlimited needs created by artificial means such as advertising.

Islam imposes legal and moral restrictions on totality of human behavior, including individual's needs. Islam as a comprehensive way of life, embraces the totality of moslem's conducts, including their economic transactions. Individual moslem's freedom is always bounded by his/her social and religious responsibilities.

Moslems are free, but they a responsible to God (Allah) and other moslems for their actions. As a result, freedom and responsibility are the two sides of one coin in Islam. Social and religious responsibilities are the constraints imposed on moslems behavior, including their economic behavior.

Islamic norms of behavior such as justice (Qur'an 5:8), moderation (Qur'an 17:29), charity (Qur'an 57:7), and waste avoidance (Qur'an 7:31) are the restriction that are meant to change the innate selfish nature of man to altruistic and compassionate economic behavior.

Hence, homo Islamicus, unlike its counterpart homo economicus, must be a paragon of values.

Who is moslems people? They are the man and womens who pray five times each day. They attend their mosques or places of worship each week (on friday). They fast during Ramadhan and try to perform a pilgrimage to the Ka'bah in Mecca (Saudi Arabia) at least once in their lives.

As moslems, they have a book called "The Holy Qur'an". This book is the word of God (Allah). The Holy Qur'an lays down, "Whoseover kills a human being without any reason like man slaughter, or corruption on earth. It is as though he had killed all mankind" (Qur'an 5:32).

Although Islam is regarded as the youngest of all revealed religions, it is not a new religions, but continuation of the first religion of God (Allah) to man, purged, and purified, time after time, from all human adulterations, and restored to its original purity.

Thus all prophet from Adam to Muhammad (peace be upon them) came to preach the same religion, which continued to grow and grow until it reached perfection at the hand of the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

UNJUST GLOBAL VILLAGE

Moslems (Islam) relation with West (Israel, NATO, and USA government) have polarized. Continously devastating condition of Palestinians, who have tyrant and unjust authoritizing by Israel. NATO and USA invations on Afghanistan (2002 until now), and Iraq (2003 until now), had destruction and killings of several hundred thousand people (moslem, or Islamist) of Afghanistan and Iraq. Evil treatment of prisoners by USA military in Abu Ghraib (Iraq region), and Guantanamo (Cuba region) are some of the major factors which have turn the world into a lawless, and unjust global village. So, West had become a International Evil Community (look The Holy Qur'an 2:120 and The Holy Qur'an 114).

Allah (God) said, "O mankind, God have created you from a male and female, and have made you into nations and tribes, for you to know one another. Truly, the noblest of you with God is the most pious. Truly, God is All Knowing, and All Aware" (The Holy Qur'an 49:13).

As a moslem, a person must declare, that he or she believe there is no god (the other God), but God (Allah), and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. This declare is perhaps the bedrock belief in Islam. Without this declare a person is not considered a moslem, he or she still an unbeliever. This phrase is the essential step in a conversion to Islam, by someone who is not a born moslem. This creed will often be repeated by moslem constantly.

Allah (God) said, "God is Allah, the One and Only. Allah is God, on whom all depend. Allah begets not, and nor begotten; and none is like Allah (The Holy Qur'an 112:1-4).

RESIST THE JEWISH LOBBY IN USA

Not easy to understand Israel, because of its barbaric. When talking about "Israel" our minds focused on the Jews (which in The Holy Qur'an is called by the name "Children of Israel"), which established the State of Israel by way of seizing land owned by the Palestinians peoples. Therefore, in order to understand Israel objectively (in truth), then we must learn from the source of The Truth, ie Allah (God).
Allah says, that the Children of Israel (to read: the people of Israel or the Jews) should think about the pleasure of Allah to them (see Qur'an 2:47), when they were rescued from the cruelty of the King of Egypt, Pharaoh (see Qur'an 2:49). Allah save them with extraordinary way (beyond the pleasure of Allah to other nations), when The Prophet Moses split the sea to the Children of Israel who were being chased by Pharaoh's army (see Qur'an 2:50).
Allah also allow the Children of Israel to enter the Baitul Maqdis (the Palestinian peoples land) with humility, as a guest which respected by Baitul Maqdis peoples or Palestinian peoples (see Qur'an 2:58). But the harmony becomes corrupted, when the Children of Israel change the Allah order (lower heart) by doing things barbaric (see Qur'an 2:59). Harmony between the guests (the Children of Israel) with the host (the Palestinian peoples) 0n Palestinian peoples land becomes difficult to realize, because the Children of Israel attack the Palestinian peoples. Disharmony in Palestinian peoples land between the guest (the Children of Israel) with the host (the Palestinian peoples) was immediately exploited by the big countries which at that time to attack and then control the Palestinian peoples land.
Uniquely, without a sense of gratitude to the Palestinian peoples, the Children of Israel are not willing to help the Palestinian peoples whose their land is being attacked by other countries. The Children of Israel would prefer to do fled to various countries, ultimately to europe countries. More unique again, when the British occupied Palestinian peoples land, the Children of Israel collaborated with the British to bring (entering) the Children of Israel to the Palestinian peoples land since 1920, to establish the State of Israel on the Palestinian peoples land.
The crime was achieve peak point, when the Children of Israel (the guest) had achieved in 1948 with the establishment of the State of Israel on the Palestinian peoples (the host) land. The Children of Israel crime getting worse, because after the establishment of the State of Israel, they (the Children of Israel) have strong support from the United States of America until now. This can be understood, because factually, the United States of America was hegemonic by the Children of Israel (in the United States of America) are organized in various Jewish lobby.
As a moslem, we hope the United States of America peoples able to resist hegemonic by Jewish lobby. Allah (God) will bless the United States of America peoples when they "walk" in the truth perspective, ie peace and justice (the Islamic values). Jewish lobby had drive USA (the United States of America) to attack Afghanistan (2002) and Iraq (2003), and support Israel crime (since 1948). Common USA peoples resist the Jewish lobby...!

WHO TO BE PRAISED

All prophets from Adam until Muhammad (peace be upon them) came to preach the same religion, which continued to grow and grow, until it reached perfection at the hand of The Prophet Muhammad. He was foretold in earlier scriptures, i.e. The Holy Bible. Thus Christians and Jews ought to recognize, that he was the final prophet of God (Allah).
This phenomenon has a symbolic, that God has commanded people to praise God, with follow a man who to be praised. This man is The Prophet Muhammad, who bring Islam from God to peoples. Islam is true religion ordained by God, and the only religion prevailing over all other religions.
The core of moslems identity are their status as worshipers of God. Through The Holy Qur'an 51:56, God said that God have only created human (man and women) that they may serve or worship of God. This is make every moslems are focused to create a benefit for the universe, or to create humanity in the world.
Now, compare with the act of west government (USA, NATO, and Israel) who destruction of humanity in the world. The west civilization since 14-th century until now, had killed millions moslem people, and destruction many village, country, state, and region of moslem. Ancient colonialism and imperialism since 14-th century until 19-th century, and modern colonialism and imperialism since 19-th century until now, was evidences about the worst of the west civilization. Phenomenons on Palestine, Afghanistan, Iraq (include Abu Ghraib scandal), and Guantanamo was evidences about this worst civilization (look at Qur'an, 2:120).
The west civilization has fallen to build humanity in the world, when they killed millions moslem people in the world. Now, the world need Islam to build humanity, with Islamic values, as the ultimate values from God to peoples in the world (universe).
Most people know that The Holy Qur'an is the holy book on Islam. The Holy Qur'an is a human guidance book to live and life in the universe (world). Moslem grant a very high place to honor to The Holy Qur'an in their mind, hearts, and lives.
Moslems know that The Holy Qur'an is perfect, and they know that The Holy Qur'an is the complete revelation of God to mankind. The facts have proved that The Holy Qur'an is held to be flawless, completely unassailable in what it says, and both in fact and doctrine. Because of this completeness and perfection, Islam had to become the ultimate religion, the final religious revelation from God to mankind, and superseding all previous belief system.
God has stated, "And whosoever desire a religion other that Islam, never will it accepted of him/her religion, and in the hereafter he/she will be in the ranks of those who are lost" (Qur'an, 3:55). God also has stated in The Holy Qur'an, "And to thee. We have sent the Book (The Holy Qur'an) in truth. This Qur'an confirming the scripture that came before it, and a witness over it" (Qur'an, 5:48).

THE WAY OF GOD

Allah (God) said, "As for those who disbelieve, surely neither their wealth nor their children shall avail them in the least against Allah, and these it is who are the fuel of the hell fire" (Qur'an, 3:10).
Like the striving of the peoples of Pharaoh, and those before them; now, many peoples in the world rejected The Holy Qur'an as a God verses. But, Allah has promised, that Allah will destroyed who rejected The Holy Qur'an in the end of the universe, and the after its. On that time, peoples can see the hell and the heaven, which created by Allah. So, Allah destroy them on account of their faults. Allah say to those who disbelieve, "You shall be vanquished, and driven together to hell."
Indeed there was a sign for entire peoples in the world now, in the two hosts which met together in encounter (Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine). One party fighting in the way of God (Islamic fighters in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine), and the other are unbelieving (USA, NATO, and Israel soldiers, and their puppets).
When believing peoples (Islamic fighters) and unbelieving peoples met in the war, the unbelieving peoples saw Islamic fighters as twice their number clearly (in impact perspective). Surely, Allah strengthens Islamic fighters in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine with Allah-aids.
In the world perspective, moslem peoples know, that beautified for mankind is love of the joys that come, from women and offspring; and stored-up heaps of gold and silver, and horses branded with their mark, and cattle and land. Moslem peoples also know, that is comfort of the life in the world, but in Allah side, have a more excellent abode, that is call "heaven".
Allah teach moslem peoples to say, "Shall I tell you what is better than the world?" Allah will given heaven for those who guard against evil (wrong driven). The peoples who believe The Holy Qur'an will live in heaven, with rivers flowing beneath. Therein is their eternal home, with companions pure and holy, and the good pleasure of Allah.
The peoples who believe The Holy Qur'an say, "Our God (Allah). Surely we believe, therefore forgive us for our faults, and save us from the chastisement of the hell."
So, in The Holy Qur'an , 3:16-17, Allah describe, "That is who the patient, the truthful, the obedient, and those who spend benevolently, and those who ask forgiveness in the morning time."

THE ANSWER TO ALL PROBLEMS

  • God said, "And why should you not fight in the cause of Allah and of the feeble among man, and of the women and the children who are crying, "Our Lord (Allah)! Rescue us on this town whose people are oppressors, and raise for us from Thee One (Allah) who will protect, and raise for us from Thee One who will help!" (Qur'an, 4:75).
  • In Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine this God said (Qur'an, 4:75) is very urgent. Based on this verse, Islamic fighters in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine want to protect and help the peoples who crying to God, from oppress by military of USA, NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), and Israel. Islamic fighters in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine have the process by which and individual's attitudes, belief, and behaviors are influenced by Islamic values. As a result, in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine, million peoples in the world can see Islamic civilization (as angel force) face to face with West civilization (as evil force).
  • Samuel P. Huntington (1992) said, that the fundamental source of conflict in this new world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. The great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. Nation states will remain the most powerful actors in world affairs, but the principal conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. The clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. The fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future.
  • To support Samuel P. Huntington, Daniel Benjamin and Steven Simon (2002) said, that Islamic discourse dominates societies, the airwaves, and thinking about the world. Islamic values have proliferated throughout the world. Bookstores are dominated by works with Islamic themes. The demand for sharia (Islamic law), the belief that Islam is the answer to all problems, and the fact that the West government hate Islam and moslem dominate public discussion.
  • Million peoples think that to live an Islamic life is a balanced way of living, and respect of human right. They know, that God created all the human with what is called a "fitrah" (the inherent behavior), which include to protect and help the people who are crying to God from oppressors. Million peoples know, that one day human shall die and return to God.
    God said, "You desire the good of this world, but Allah desires for you the hereafter, and Allah is Almighty and All Wise" (Qur'an, 8:67).
  • God (Allah) said too, "O mankind! God created you from a single soul, become male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, so that you may come to know one another. Truly the most honored of you in God's sight is the greatest of you in piety. God is All-Knowing and All-Aware" (Qur'an, 49:13).
  • In the wealth context, many peoples know, that God who provided wealth to the person, made a portion of it for the poor, so the poor have a right over one's wealth. Love of wealth is natural, and it takes firm belief in God for a person to part with some of his wealth. The whole concept of wealth is considered in Islamic values as a gift from God. The true owner of things is not man, but God.
  • God said, "You who believe! Give of the good things which you have honourably earned, and the fruits of the earth, which God have produced for you" (Qur'an, 2:267).
  • In Islamic values, a person must give, provide, or supply the other people of the good things, which he have honourably earned. Giving charity to those who deserve it is part of moslems character. Giving charity is considered to purify one's heart of greed. It is an obligation for those who have received their wealth from God, to respond to those members of the community in need. Islamic values emphasizes feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, and helping those who are need.
  • Moslem peoples in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine need help from the other moslems. They have oppressed by USA, NATO, and Israel military. God calls on those who obey God to stand up for the rights of the oppressed. Islamic fighters in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine want to protect and help the peoples from oppress by military of USA, NATO, and Israel.

STATE TERRORISM: MADE IN USA

USA build state terrorism after World War Second. Vietnam War had prove its. As a result 150,000 USA troops was died, and a million troops was wound in Vietnam.
After Cold War, USA continues make implementation of state terrorism, like this: First, on October 7, 2001, USA and Australian forces initiated bombing campaigns. The main goals of the war to defeat the Taliban (Islamic Student Fighter), drive al-Qaeda (Islamic Fighter) out of Afghanistan, and capture key al-Qaeda leaders. Early 2003, the Taliban was regrouping, amassing new funds, and recruit. In 2006, the Taliban insurgency appeared larger, fiercer, and better organized. As a result 3,500 USA troops was died, and many thousand troops was wound in Afghanistan.
Second, the invasion of Iraq commenced on March 20, 2003 with bombing campaigns like in Afghanistan, and the Iraqi military quickly defeated. But USA and Allied Forces faced growing insurgency led Islamic groups. In 2005, Islamic groups insurgency appeared larger, fiercer, and better organized. As a result 21,500 USA troops was died, and many thousands troops was wound in Iraq. USA policies and strategy in Iraq had many critics, and pressed to set time table to withdraw troops from Iraq.
Afghanistan and Iraq War had prove, that the world need Islamic values to face state terrorism (made in USA). In Islamic values many country will be peace and just. People live in peace, and make them interactions in egalitarian. God (Allah) said, "Whoseover kills a human being without any reason like man slaughter, or corruption on earth. It is as though he had killed all mankind" (Qur'an 5:32).

IN THE NAME OF GOD

In the name of God (Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala), the Most Compassionate, and the Most Merciful. Asallamu'alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, which is equivalent in English, "greetings of peace".
We are going through some very difficult time, when west relations with moslem have polarized. Continously devastating conditions of Palestinians, who had tyrant and unjust authoritizing by Israel. USA invations on Afganistan (since 2002) and Iraq (since 2003), had destruction and killings of several hundred thousand moslem people on Afghanistan and Iraq. Evil treatment of prisoners by USA military (on Abu Ghraib in Iraq, and on Guantanamo in Cuba Region) are some of the major factors which have turned our world into a lawless, and unjust global village.
I hope we will be a step to undo the lawless and unjust global village. We will to undo the stereotypes, and help inspire a contructive and sincere interaction. The Holy Qur'an could inspiring to return harmonize west world and moslem world interaction.
