A general review of historical trends and people against the religious morality reveals that they all base their philosophy on materialist thought. As is known, materialists deny the fact of creation. Instead, they maintain the error that matter has existed since time immemorial and will remain as an absolute entity for all eternity. in other words, they deify matter. (Surely Allah is beyond that.) Materialism is thus defined in materialist sources:
Materialism accepts the eternity and everlastingness of the universe (its having no beginning or end), that it is not created by God, and is infinite in time and place.1
The reason why materialism so deifies matter stems from its categorical refusal to accept the existence of a Creator. That matter is not absolute implies that it had a beginning: that it had a beginning means that it was brought into being from nothing, that is, it was created.
