What if Islam is the truth?

Most people never stop to ask why the world looks the way it does. They inherit a set of conditions and call it normal.

But if you hold the standard Western belief about where we came from — that the universe appeared from nothing, life emerged from chemistry, and consciousness is just neurons firing — I want you to try something with me.

Just for the next few minutes, ask yourself one question:

What if Islam is true?

In this 'hypothetical' scenario, God exists, which means Satan also exists.

Satan, in this reality, has one goal: to keep the people away from the remembrance of God, by any means necessary.

So let's use our imaginations and try to think about how this made-up world would look.

In this fictional world, it's reasonable to assume, this make-believe character, Satan, would want to control all the influential and powerful people who are in charge of the affairs of the wider population.

An Island where they all get together and commit the worst crimes imaginable would be extremely valuable to him to ensure these people could be easily blackmailed and manipulated into pushing his demonic agenda.

I’m sure that, in this make-believe world, anything with a demonstrably negative impact on its citizens would be glamorised, celebrated, and woven into the fabric of its society.

Alcohol, a neurotoxic poison, would be the means to celebrate every event, achievement and milestone.

Gambling would be marketed as entertainment and advertised everywhere you look, normalising addiction, desperation and ruin.

Drugs would be rebranded as escapism, freedom or healing, as they hollow out minds, families and communities.

In this fantasy world, children would be the number one target for the antagonist Satan, because they would be the easiest to manipulate.

If they could be conditioned during adolescence, they'd likely remain trapped for the rest of their lives.

So things like p*rn would be super accessible to them, conditioning their developing brains to form distorted expectations of intimacy and relationships for the rest of their lives.

It would be extremely advantageous if they were constantly exposed to a fluorescent device held inches from their faces, capable of delivering an endless stream of rapid, low-effort dopamine hits, eroding their attention span, focus, and capacity for critical thought.

This would condition their brain's reward system to constantly seek instant gratification, making activities that require patience, discipline, and sustained effort seem far less rewarding.

Pursuits that provide long-term satisfaction would feel pointless and unappealing. Instead of looking for purpose they'd become addicted to consumption.

That would be a real win for the antagonist, Satan.

It's just hypothetical though, don't worry.

Moving into adulthood, they'd be conditioned to believe the ultimate life transaction is this: trade their best years — eight hours a day, for 50 years — to retire when they are old, incapable but finally ready for some long-awaited 'freedom'.

The financial system, in this world, would likely be built on debt, interest and speculation, keeping its people trapped in cycles of borrowing and repayment.

The population would be forced to work endless hours so they can borrow more money to buy things that they couldn't afford.

The people would be given a personal score to demonstrate how good they are to borrow and repay this money (with interest of course).

The people would begin to brag to each other about how good their score is, and see it as a personal accolade and something to be proud of.

In this reality where God exists and Satan is trying to keep people away from this truth, he'd face a problem:

The people were created to worship.

It's built into them.

Hardwired.

He can't remove it, so he'd have to redirect it.

And so in this hypothetical world, materialism wouldn't just be a culture — it would be the religion. A person's value would no longer be measured by their character, integrity, or humanity, but by the amount of wealth, status, and possessions they accumulate. Their worth, their identity, their reason for being — all of it attached to what they own.

Another big problem this character Satan would face is with the people trying to ruin his plan.

The people who are saying Islam is the truth:

Muslims.

This would be his hardest fight so he'd have to get dirty.

His plan could only work if he could convince all the people who aren't Muslim that Muslims are their enemy and they have to stay well clear of Islam.

He would have to use his puppets in the ruling class, the media and every algorithm at his disposal, to convince the population that Muslims are barbaric, cruel, backward and oppressive.

He'd need them to associate the word "Muslim" with fear before they ever met one.

He'd need a headline every week. A new outrage. A fresh reason to keep the suspicion alive.

Muslim nations declaring Islam is the truth and that the Islamic way of life is the optimal life transaction would have to be destroyed and their leaders removed, one by one, while the world watched and accepted it as normal.

Wars would be manufactured.

False flags would justify invasions.

In this hypothetical reality, World Trade Centre Building 7 would collapse at freefall speed, seven hours after the other towers had fallen, due to 'office fires'.

Whole countries would be destroyed.

Millions dead or displaced.

And the survivors who fled for safety to prosperous, safe nations — they would then, ironically, get blamed for all of the problems those nations face at home.

A huge win for the antagonist, Satan.

It's just hypothetical though, don't worry.

In this world, where Islam is true, by default the Islamic way of life would have to be optimal for every single person.

It would have to be better than the way they were currently living.

If it wasn't, then Islam couldn't be the truth.

So all one would have to do to disprove the entire religion of Islam, is live like a Muslim for a period of time, say 30 days, and then truthfully say to themselves 'my life has not improved, therefore Islam cannot be true.'

In this hypothetical world, that would be impossible.
