| Summary: | The declaration of neoliberalism as the end of history and final form of mankind
ideological evolution is in sharp contrast to the claim of Muslims who believe that
Islam already provided an everlasting ideology for the welfare of humanity. This
study, therefore, intends to thoroughly compare the claims of these contrasting
ideologies by taking the gnosis of mankind. Regarding the methodology of article,
clear and logical arguments are used for clarifying the ambiguity surrounding the topic
under consideration. In neoliberalism, there is complete silence on the issue of the
human incorporeal soul while in case of Islam, Muslims philosophers explained it
in a sensible and easy to understand manner. Neoliberalism which motivates human
being for selfishness and maximization of profit are associated with violence and
corruption across the planet. As an ideological innovation, it is responsible for making
human being as selfish, lonely, closed, insatiable and unhappy. Regarding the gnosis of mankind, recent scientific discovery strengthens and support the claim of Muslim
philosophers. |
