londonI was in a 10 days visit to London in March 2005. This is my first visit to the 'West' civilization. I decided to write an article on my experience in these days. Surely, 10 days are not enough to give an opinion, but it is enough to get an idea about the lifestyle and nature of this society.

Allah the almighty has created human beings for a certain purpose. My first observation is that this purpose is not being fulfilled in this City. The mass population rush for physical and material wants and needs, but they have no idea about the meta-Physical wants and needs beyond this  material world.

I went to Madame Tussaud's and saw all those statues of 'great' celebrities. Also, I had chance to visit the National Gallery and saw some of what European painters have painted. It shows how these people get attracted to statues and pictures. Satan started Shirk (associating deities with Allah) by attaching people's hearts with statues. Till now, Satan is playing the same trick in the mind of those Europeans. The very Shirk got deep rooted in the place of their worship (i.e., churches) where symbols of Jesus and Mary are portrayed. The marriage between the Christian church and the Roman paganism yielded a mixture between monotheism and paganism and that outcome is the strange religion called the modern Christianity. Nudity is a keyword for those paintings. It was the enlightenment era when those painters thought themselves totally enlightened when they converted the nude mythology of Greeks into pictures. I dared not to take my kids deep inside those galleries and scratch black dots in their pure hearts, where they consider nudity -by their God given nature- a crime.

    I had a chance to ride the taxi at Madam Tussaud's that takes a tour in the history of London. What I realized is nothing but horror, and the past history of London is not a one to be proud of. Horror, punishment and brutality are best words to describe this history. Europe suffered a lot from religious intolerance and years of wars. They designed all these innovative ways to punish people of opposing ideology. The same concept is still there, and today, all these prohibited weapons are still being made exploiting the advancement of science and technology.

The people of London struggle hard for their earnings and the cost of living is very high. Since those people go through lots of pressure during the day, they find it relaxing to release some of these pressures at night. It is amazing to see the mass population - men and women- drinking in pubs at the night. The day in work, and the night with wine and women! That is animal way of enjoyment! Civilization advanced in material way, but the modern civilization surely went very down in the scale of moral and meta-physical values.

I used the underground a lot going from station to other, and in many times with my wife and two kids. It was surprising to see almost no kids in my journeys. Either men or women. No families! Where are all those families in London? One of the valuable assets we Muslims feel proud for, is the family values we maintain. A family is a heaven for us. After the pressure of the long day work, one finds in his wife and kids an excellent means of relaxation, enjoyment and happiness. I wonder if the people of London do the same. I saw lots of young couples, and I could see from their actions that they are not bond by a noble marriage relationship, rather by a dirty illegal satanic bond.

I felt very piety for all those old people who have no support and need to rely on their weak physical body for the day to day expenses. I wonder if their kids know anything about them. Surely, London is a city of enjoyment for the youth only. It is not a place for small and old. In Muslim society, the old parents remains under the care of their children. According to Islam the parents are supposed to receive extra care at the old age.

London is Satan's best field to play havoc in the relationship between the opposite sex. Because of the ultimate individual freedom, any man can have illegal relationship with any woman and vice versa. Shame is a word absent from their dictionary. As a result, intimate relationships are observed openly in the public. Women and Wine created lots of problems in this city. Violence and Crime are natural children of the marriage between illegal women and wine.

Indeed, the western civilization is like fresh skin painted with all sorts of glorious cosmetics, but beneath that lies an open vacuum that is deprived from morals and ethics. The life is very similar to animals; where eating, enjoying and sex are the pillars of existence. No one seems interesting in the world hereafter. On top of all these complexities, the financial jail adds more tension to the people of London. Huge expense of daily life with the burden of handsome monthly bills, along with life long mortgage payments make a human being in a continuous stress, to which one finds relaxing in wine and variety of women.

Out of just and fair talk, one needs not to close the eyes on the positive sides of this city as well. There are good systems in place, which made the city and the country among the top. Hardworking and sincerity yields perfection in outcome regardless of the type of nation or country. UK has a long history of imperial achievements, which taught them how to treat with diverse nations. UK went to many the rich nations and stole their property and culture. UK's original culture and history is dark and uncivilized. UK learnt civilization, and stole it, from India and Middle east. Being a Bangladeshi, I can realize the story of my grandfathers, when they used to talk about the richness of Bangladesh before the British advent, and what had happened after their advent, when they transferred the riches to their country. USA is doing the same now. But Allah wants the Muslims to be rich all the time. Still middle east remains, and will remain the mine of fortune that never replenishes.

Do not become weak (against your enemy), nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you are indeed (true) believers. [Quran aal-Imran (3):139]
