A Thought-Based Approach
Social Resistance to Destroying Atheist and Islamophobic Ideologies: A Thought-Based Approach In most civilizations and cultures of the world, religion is considered the center of society. Religion is not just the name of spiritual practice; rather, it is the foundation of morality, order, social order, and human thought. Islam in its entirety is a complete way of life, under whose shadow people find the path to justice, peace, purity, and self-respect.
