There is a view that the scientific and technological advancement found in The West is the fruit of Democracy. Those who advocate such a view do not know the facts of this matter. This is because inventions based on scientific experiments are things that Allah 􀀬 has enabled the human mind to achieve and they are not linked to a viewpoint. We see this with capitalists, communists and Muslims, and with anyone who allows his mind to proceed freely. No religion or ideology has any effect in this, except from the perspective of whether the ideology allows sciences and permits the use of the mind, or it stands in the way as the church did before? It is well known that the Islamic ideology not only permits the examination and understanding of things, but also obliges it in terms of preparing the material power that is necessary for the sovereignty of the ideology.

The West has presented to us its evil goods, such as Democracy, which the Shar’a has forbidden us to adopt, but has forbidden us from taking its other goods, such as the sciences and inventions, that the Shar’a does not prohibit us from taking. This is because they allow us to obtain the means of power that we require. The West’s actions indicate that it is aware of what it is doing. So should some of the Islamic groups accept to remain blind to this?

This shows that the one who says Democracy is from Islam is a person who does not understand Islam and neither does he understand Democracy.
