İslam ve İnsanlığın Geleceği

Rate this book
Müslümanlar iyi bir müslüman olmayı, ilk görev olan Allah'ın hükümranlığını yeryüzünde gerçekleştirmek olarak gördükçe ve bu vazifeyi yerine getirme gücünü kıldıkları namaz, gittikleri hacc ve tuttukları oruçtan aldıkça, birkaç on yıllık bir süre içinde, İndüs nehrinden, Atlantik okyanusuna kadar milyonlarca erkek ve kadını kendi imanlarına kazandırdılar. İyi bir müslüman olmanın, kendini yalnızca ayin ve ibadetlere vermek ve artık Allah yolunda yaratıcı çabalarda bulunmamak demek olduğuna inanmaya başladıkları zaman ise, bu harikulade çiçekleniş ve yükseliş solup düştü. İslam, tarihin aktif öznesi olma niteliğini yitirdi. Sonunda yabancı istilacıların ve sömürgecilerin ellerinde bir nesneye dönüştü.

روجيه جارودي
French philosopher and former elected official in the National Assembly for the French Communist Party.

Garaudy is controversial for his anti-zionist views. He converted to Islam in 1982.

Born to Catholic and Jewish atheist parents in Marseille, Garaudy converted at age 14 and became a Protestant. During World War II, Garaudy joined the French Resistance, for which he was imprisoned in Djelfa, Algeria, as a prisoner of war of Vichy France. Following the war, Garaudy joined the French Communist Party. As a political candidate he succeeded in being elected to the National Assembly and eventually rose to the position of deputy speaker, and later senator.

Garaudy lectured in the faculty of arts department of the University Clermont-Ferrand from 1962-1965. Due to controversies between Garaudy and Michel Foucault, Garaudy left. He later taught in Poitiers from 1969-1972.

Garaudy remained a Christian and eventually re-converted to Catholicism during his political career. He was befriended by one of France's most prominent clerics of the time, the Abbé Pierre, who in later years supported Garaudy, even regarding the latter's most controversial views.

In 1970, Garaudy was expelled from the Communist Party following his outspoken criticism of the 1968 Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia.

Garaudy converted to Islam in 1982 after marrying a Palestinian woman, later writing that "The Christ of Paul is not the Jesus of the Bible," and also forming other critical scholarly conclusions regarding the Old and New Testaments. As a Muslim he adopted the name "Ragaa" and became a prominent Islamic commentator and supporter of the Palestinian cause. He was married to Salma Taji Farouki.

Garaudy wrote more than 50 books, mainly on political philosophy and Marxism.
