11.4 西方的自由
11.4 The Freedoms In The West
通过将宗教与生活分离的观念,西方将立法的权利揽归己有。它认为,人应当按照自己的意愿生活,而非依他人所期望的方式;依自己的一时之念行事,而非遵从他人的意志。他们认为,人只有享有自由,才能行使这一权利。于是,自由被表述为信仰自由、所有权自由、言论自由和个人自由。它将这些自由的理念视为神圣不可侵犯。
By resorting to the idea of separating religion from life, The West has given the right of legislation to itself. It takes the view that man must live his life as he pleases and not as others would like; in accordance with his own whims and not the will of others. They took the view that man cannot practice this right until he enjoys his freedom. This has led his freedom to be represented as the freedoms of belief, ownership, opinion and personal freedom. It considered this idea of freedoms as sacred.
这些自由有其特定的专业含义。
These freedoms have specific technical meanings.
信仰自由允许个人信奉他所选择的宗教。或者允许他从一种信仰转向另一种信仰,即使这种转变是日常发生的。它也允许他完全拒绝一切宗教。
Freedom of belief allows the individual to believe in the religion he chooses. Or it allows him to move from one creed to another, even if it was a daily occurrence. It permitted him to reject religions altogether.
所有权自由允许个人拥有他想拥有的任何东西,并通过他想要的任何方式取得。他也有权按自己的意愿处置其财产。如果他想把财产作为礼物送给他的狗,并使其继承人无法获得,那么没有人能够阻止他这样做。
Freedom of ownership allows the individual to own whatever he wants and through any means he wants. He also has the right to dispose of with his wealth in any manner he wishes. If he wants to give it as a gift to his dog and prevent his inheritors from it, then nobody can stop him from doing so.
言论自由让他可以想说什么就说什么,无论对错,不受任何阻碍或监督。他可以违背或批评任何与他的理解或个人好恶相悖的观点。
Freedom of opinion allows him to say whatever he wants, whether it is true or false, without any obstacle or monitoring. He can violate or criticize any opinion that goes against his understanding or whims.
个人自由允许个人处理自己的私事,无需顾及价值观、伦理约束或精神上的限制。
Personal freedom allows individuals to run their personal affairs without any consideration for values, ethical constraints or spiritual restrictions.
这种所谓自由的理念——即民主的基本要求——已使其倡导者的价值观堕落到低于动物的水平。
This idea of freedoms, which are basic requirements of Democracy, has caused the values of those who advocate it to decline to a level lower than that of animals.
信仰自由使宗教在资本主义社会中失去了其重要性。当它允许个人像更换衣服一样更换自己的宗教时,就极大地贬低了宗教。
The freedom of belief has made religion lose its importance in capitalist societies. It belittled religion greatly when it permitted individuals to change their religion the way they changes their clothes.
随着唯物主义思潮的蔓延和宗教思想的受限,伦理、人道与精神价值逐渐消失。人们的内心失去了怜悯,开始像狼一样生活,强者欺压弱者。
With the spread of the materialistic thought and the restriction of the religious thought, the ethical, humanitarian and spiritual values have disappeared. The souls of the people have become devoid of compassion, and they have come to live like wolves, where the strong subjugate the weak.
言论自由使人们可以随意发表自己的看法,想要什么就呼吁什么。因此,各种虚假、怪异和荒谬的观点在他们的社会中都能找到,他们也缺乏辨别真理的任何标准。你还会听到普通人亵渎使者ﷺ,而没有任何法律阻止他们这样做;例如萨尔曼·拉什迪(Salman Rushdi),他以信仰自由为借口,躲在言论自由的背后。
Freedom of opinion has permitted the people to say what they like and to call for whatever they want. So, every false, strange and crazy opinion is to be found in their societies; they are devoid of the truth any criteria for it. You also come to hear any common person blaspheme against the Messenger , without any law to prevent him from this; like Salman Rushdi, who uses freedom of belief as a pretext and hides under freedom of speech.
至于所有权的自由及其利益标准,它催生了资本主义这一怪物。资本主义以殖民主义为手段,控制人们的未来,掠夺他们的资源,榨取他们的财富,并让他们的民众流血。其目的是为了与他人争夺非法的收益,以穆斯林的鲜血做交易,煽动内战和国家之间的战争,从而推销其产品以及其军工产业的产品,并借此获取巨额利润。这些资本主义国家已经抛弃了一切精神、伦理和人道主义价值。相反,它们在被迫的情况下利用宗教来掩盖其利益,并声称自己拥有伦理和人道主义价值,以此遮掩其丑陋的嘴脸和腐臭的气味。
As for freedom of ownership and its criteria of benefit, it has created the monstrosity of Capitalism, which has taken colonialism as a method to control people’s future, and to seize their resources, exploit their wealth, and spill the blood of their peoples. This is to compete with others for the Haraam earning, to trade with the blood of the Muslims, to fuel civil wars and wars between nations so as to sell their products and those of their military industries, which have made huge profits. These capitalist states have stripped themselves of any spiritual, ethical or humanitarian values. Rather they use religion, if compelled, to cover their interests and claim to have ethical and humanitarian values to conceal their ugly face and putrid smell.
至于个人自由,它已使民主国家的社会转变为堕落的、近乎动物般的社会。它们已堕落到一种令人作呕的放纵境地,连动物都未曾达到这样的程度。
As for personal freedom, it has transformed societies in the democratic countries into declined animalistic societies. They have descended to a level of disgusting licentiousness that even the animals have not reached.
他们的立法允许了不正常且错误的性关系。
Their legislation has permitted abnormal and erroneous sexual relations.
你们会看到他们之中存在一些连动物之间都看不到的行为。他们实行群交,与自己的母亲、女儿和姐妹乱伦,甚至与动物发生性行为。因此,他们之中出现了以前从未存在过的疾病。在他们的社会中,家庭的瓦解随处可见,同一家庭成员之间的相互尊重也已丧失。个人自由被理解为摆脱一切约束的自由;允许任何价值观,并允许摧毁家庭。所有重大罪行都以自由之名被犯下,所有禁令都以自由之名被允许。
You see amongst them practices that you do not see even amongst animals. They practice group sex and incest with their mothers, daughters and sisters. They practice sex even with animals. Hence diseases appear amongst them that never existed before. The break up of the family can be seen in their societies and the mutual respect between the members of a single family has been lost. Personal freedom is the freedom to do away with all restrictions; allowing any kind of values and the freedom to destroy the family. It is in the name of freedom that all the grave sins are committed and all the prohibitions are permitted.
所以,在这种社会里,通奸、同性恋、女同性恋、裸露、饮酒,以及追求任何行为,无论多么卑劣或可耻,都可以在最大程度的自由下进行,没有任何压力或强迫。
So the freedom of fornication, homosexuality, lesbianism, nudity, and alcohol, and the pursuit of every action no matter how low or despicable it may be, is all done with the utmost freedom without any pressure or compulsion.
这些都是民主制的种种后果。它们是人的私欲与任性的产物,而非出自安拉,也不源于来自天际的启示。它们与任何宗教都毫无关系。如果我们回溯民主制在其倡导者与思想家心中得以确立的那件事,以及它诞生时所处的环境,便会非常清楚地看到:它是建立在曲解信仰(kufr)的基础之上的,是作为对路易十五的言论“我的王冠只从上帝那里获得”,以及路易十四的言论“国王的权威来自上帝的委托。上帝是它唯一的源泉,而非人民。国王只需在其权力的行使上向上帝负责”的回应而建立起来的。知识分子把让-雅克·卢梭的社会契约理论描述为“法国世俗革命的圣经”。由此可见,伊斯兰与民主之间存在彻底的矛盾,无论从其来源、所出的信条、所据以建立的基础,还是它所带来的思想与制度来看,皆是如此。
These are the effects of Democracy. They are the product of man’s whims and not from Allah , and they are not derived from the revelation that comes from the heavens. They have nothing to do with any religion whatsoever. If we return to the thing that established Democracy in the minds of its advocates and thinkers, and the circumstances into which it was born, it will become very clear that it was founded on a kufr basis and it was established as a response to sayings such as those of Louis XV; “We did not receive the crown except from God”, and Louis XIV; “The authority of the kings derives from the delegation of God. God is its exclusive source and not the people. Kings are not accountable for how they practice their authority, except before God.” The intellectuals described the theory of the social contract of Jean Jacque Russo as, ‘the Bible of the French secular revolution.’ From all of this the complete contradiction of Islam with Democracy becomes clear to us, in regards to the source from which it came, the creed from which it emanated, the basis on which it is founded and the thoughts and systems it has brought.
- 其来源是人。他是那个被认为有权对行为和事物作出判断的统治者,判断它们是“husn”(美好、值得去做)还是“qubh”(可憎、应当避免)。这无非是随从自己的私欲和情欲。其根源在于欧洲的哲学家。
- The source from which it has come is man. He is the ruler who is referred to in issuing judgments on actions and things, in respect of them being husn (pretty/worthy of doing) or qubh (reprehensible). This is nothing but following one’s whims and desires. The roots of its creation lie with the philosophers of Europe.
至于伊斯兰教,情况与此相反。它来自安拉(SWT)。祂(SWT)将它启示给祂的先知穆罕默德ﷺ,祂的仆人和使者。在伊斯兰教中,裁定律例的权威在于沙里亚,而非理智。理智的作用仅限于理解沙里亚的经文。
As for Islam, it is opposite to that. It is from Allah . He revealed it to His Prophet Muhammad, His Servant and Messenger . The ruler in Islam refers to the Shar’a in issuing rules and not to the mind. The role of the mind is restricted to understanding the Sharee’ah texts.
至于民主所源自的信条,它是政教分离的信条,即以妥协方案为基础的信条。这一信条并非拒绝宗教,而是取消了宗教在生活与国家中的作用,从而赋予人制定自身制度的权利。
- As for the creed from which Democracy emanates, it is the creed of separating religion from life, which is the creed based on the compromise solution. This creed did not reject religion but abolished its role in life and State, and consequently gave man the right to lay down his own system.
正是基于其信仰(aqīdah),它的文明得以奠基,它的思想方向也由此确定。
It was on the basis of its creed that its civilisation was founded and its intellectual direction was defined.
至于伊斯兰,则与此相反。它建立在伊斯兰信仰(‘Aqeedah)之上,这一信仰要求生活中的一切事务以及国家,都必须遵循安拉的命令与禁令而运行。换言之,生活依照源自伊斯兰信仰的沙里亚(Sharee'ah)律法而展开。
As for Islam it is contrary to this. It is based on the Islamic ‘Aqeedah that obliges all of life’s affairs, and the State to be directed according to the orders and prohibitions of Allah . In other words, life proceeds according to the Sharee’ah rules that emanate from the Islamic ‘Aqeedah.
正是以其‘阿qīdah(信仰)为基础,其文明得以奠立,其思想方向也由此确定。
It was on the basis of its ‘Aqeedah that its civilisation was founded and its intellectual direction was defined.
民主制度所建立的基础是:主权属于人民,人民是权力的来源。基于此,民主制度设立了三种权力:立法权、行政权和司法权,以便切实地体现其主权和权威。
- The basis on which Democracy is founded is that sovereignty is for the people. The people are the source of the powers. Based on this, the democratic systems created three powers; the legislative, executive and judicial powers, so as to practically express its sovereignty and authority.
至于伊斯兰而言,主权归属于沙里亚(Shar'a),乌玛(Ummah)不拥有立法的权利。然而,伊斯兰责成穆斯林执行安拉的命令与禁令,并通过建立沙里亚经文所规定的哈里发国家来体现这一点。
As for Islam, sovereignty lies with the Shar’a, and the Ummah does not possess the right of legislation. However, Islam has obliged the Muslims to execute the orders and prohibitions of Allah , and it manifested this through the establishment of the Khilafah State as defined by the Sharee’ah texts.
民主制度及其思想建立在利益与顺从私欲之上,而伊斯兰的立法则建立在遵循经文、从经文中推导出沙里亚律例的基础上,也就是建立在遵从并依循正道的基础之上。
- Democracy came with systems and thoughts based on benefit and the following of whims, whilst the legislation of Islam is based on following the texts and deducing the Shar’eeah rules from them, i.e. it is based on the adherence to and following of guidance.
这种认为民主制度中有一些好的因素、伊斯兰可以从中受益的说法毫无根据,也没有证据支持。我们已经看到了民主所带来的一些后果:它造成了一种不含任何善良之处的恶劣局面。被带到人类面前的最优秀的乌玛,无需从民主中汲取任何东西。难道伊斯兰有什么缺陷,需要通过提出这样的主张来弥补吗?
The statement that Democracy has some good elements from which Islam can benefit is baseless and is not based upon evidence. We have seen some of the effects of Democracy; it has created an evil situation that contains no goodness. The best Ummah brought forth to mankind does not need to take anything from Democracy. Is there a deficiency in Islam, which needs to be compensated for by making such a claim?
