Modern Western ideology and its impact on the system of social values in Islamic societies

Abstract

The Western world is going through dangerous social
transformations, represented by a transition from the era of
religiosity to the era of humanism (humanism), where man completely
separated his existence from God and relied on his person as a source
of values, ideals and ideas, which stripped him of religious values that
in turn govern the behavior and rights of individuals. In society, our
Arab and Islamic world was not spared from the intellectual and
social invasion, as it formed radical revolutions in the issue of social
concepts and values, as it is part of the world, and was engulfed by a
massive phenomenon of changing values and morals. This
phenomenon has appeared since the beginnings of modernity and the
era of Western enlightenment and has continued step after another.
To this day, what has helped this change, and contributed to it, is the
tremendous electronic development, which humanity has never
witnessed in the speed of capturing and transmitting events and news,
making the world like a small village. As a result of this, the Arab and
Islamic world has witnessed in the current era a wave of major
transformations in ideology and ideas. And social values, which
greatly influenced the intellectual, behavioral and social sphere in
general of the Arab Muslim individual. Modern ideology has directly
affected the speed of the transmission of ideas and the invasion of
information represented by the electronic revolution, which aims to
subjugate our Arab societies with their various religions, sects and ethnicities in moving from conservative values to new values inspired
by references other than the reference that our ancestors had, the
reference with its customs and traditions based on the basis Its source
is Islamic law, represented by the tolerant Islamic teachings of
Muhammad, and its aim is to strip the Muslim individual of any link
that unites the past generation, which had specific cultural, social and
Islamic value paths to generations different from the previous ones,
acquired from modern Western social values through the
transmission of ideas that are contrary to the Islamic religion. Arab
customs and traditions, and perhaps the most prominent of them are
social values, have changed in our familial, social, and even religious
reality. It is discovered without effort that the educational discourse
and the inclinations of young people have changed as well as their
interests. Indeed, even families are witnessing a disruption and
collapse that is unparalleled in Arab social development, as the West
deliberately spread and disseminate their ideas. Poisonous things in
the minds of Muslim generations, such as gender, homosexuality,
transgenderism, and cohabitation, in addition to spreading anti-
Islamic ideas such as burning the Qur’an to incite division between
religions and spread chaos under the guise of freedom of opinion and
expression, including the issue of spreading atheism and the lack of
family ties between family members. ...etc. All these ideas and
phenomena aim to disintegrate and disintegrate social values and the
family bond between members of the same family, especially since
Islam guarantees human rights and even gives it priority in existence,
within its existential being in the universe. From here came the idea
of our research to study (modern Western ideology and its impact
on... The system of social values in Islamic societies), as this study
came to explain the ideas and phenomena spread recently that have
surfaced, as they have nothing to do with the human, moral and social
values of Muhammadiyah, except for one goal, which is to sabotage
and destroy the system of Arab and Islamic social values so that
chaos may prevail. Corruption in the Islamic world, and thus deprives
a person of all his natural human rights, and from here came the idea
of this study.
