According to the Qur’an, neither working hard, nor growing weary, nor achieving respect or love from others is regarded as criteria of superiority. Rather, it is their belief in God, their good deeds done in order to gain His consent, and their goodwill, nurtured in the depths of their hearts, that are regarded as the criteria of superiority. Therefore, with this book, we are inviting all those sincere believers, who love God, wish to be friend with Him, and turn to Him, to search for the secret that leads to being among the successful.

Throughout history, the most important thing in some societies has not been what Allah expects from people, but what people expect from one another. With no awareness of the Qur’an’s decrees or of the way of life enjoined in that book, people have strived to fulfill the expectations of the societies and social environments in which they live. Most people do not consider the power of Allah, the importance of winning His favor, or the penalty they will receive from Him for not obeying His commands. Instead, they wonder what other people think about them and expect of them, and they are most interested in doing everything they can to ingratiate themselves with others. These individuals live in a system that directs more love and devotion toward their fellow men than toward Allah, and they cannot even imagine how this may be wrong. In fact, they are caught up in a system of false beliefs in which one individual becomes the slave of others and become a devoted adherent of this secret religion. This false religion encourages people to abandon Allah and worship others instead. This passionate attachment to other human beings we call “The Religion of Worshipping People.” This book shows how this satanic system puts people in great danger, both in this world and in terms of their eternal life to come. We explain how it coerces them into rejecting Allah, Who created them, and deifies people in His place. In various examples from daily life, we demonstrate how people fall under the control of this system. We explain what people must do to save themselves from the spell of this false religion while they still have time.

Throughout their entire lives, everyone is at war with an enemy, the extent of whose strength and influence they perhaps fail to fully comprehend. He constantly invites mankind to commit evil, and many people he uses without them even being aware of it. Those who are constantly in conflict with others, who always believe that violence is the answer, who take pleasure in brutality, murder, chaos and anarchy, in short, those who harm the peace and security of the world, have lost the war against this foe, whether they realize it or not, and have fallen under his control. This most dangerous enemy is the Devil.

The Qur’an reveals a very important truth: “You will not attain true goodness until you give of what you love.” (Surah Al 'Imran: 92) Self-sacrifice, one of the basic moral qualities that allows people to attain real goodness, can enable individuals to give up, happily and without a second thought, all that they own, love, and value. All people are created with negative moral tendencies that direct them toward selfishness and egotism. If one’s lower self is not trained, this selfishness will take control of one’s moral character. However, people can overcome their lower self by understanding belief in Allah and practicing the Qur’an’s moral teachings. This book examines the nature of self-sacrifice from all angles. You will see for yourself that self-sacrifice is a moral virtue that must dominate a believer’s life and that it must be lived in its totality to win Allah’s favor.

Slander is one of the ugly methods used by dishonest and immoral people whose interests have been damaged, and thus are hostile, angry, and full of ill-feeling toward the people with whom they are in competition or whom they desire to hurt. In societies that are far removed from religious morality and so do not live by Allah’s will, it is frequently used to put others in a bad light. This book deals with a certain type of slander, which has been handed down from generation to generation over thousands of years as if it were an inheritance: that used by those who do not believe in religion to harm believers, whether physically or spiritually. The Qur’an reveals that all of Allah’s messengers and other devout people who called their societies to abide by the Qur’an’s morality stood accused of avarice, madness, arrogance, theft, and fornication. By Allah’s leave, however, every piece of slander has come to nothing. These people always displayed exemplary patience and reliance upon Allah when confronted with slander, disregarded such efforts, and continued to live by the morality ordained by Allah and invite people to the righteous path.

For the last 150 years, the theory of evolution has been portrayed everywhere—from school textbooks to scholarly publications—as scientific fact. But it actually stands on highly unsound foundations. Every claim that evolutionists have made over the last 150 years has later been refuted by science. Evolutionists have finally abandoned trying to prove their theory and instead, have begun looking for ways to prop it up by such methods as propaganda, demagogy, and outright deception. Their aim is no longer to defend a scientific theory, but rather to persist in promoting this nonsense which is supposed to be scientific so as to maintain their materialist, atheistic world views. In this book, the theory of evolution’s basic claims are refuted with scientific evidence. It demonstrates, using concrete examples with which you will be quite familiar, why it is impossible for new species to emerge through evolution.
