Is Islam really against Communism/Socialism?

Are the Ideals of Islam really against Communism/Socialism?

why are we taught as such? Capitalism is known to make people greedy/selfish, how is this Islamic?

Communism/Socialism is Shariah. Islam propagates society as a collective group of body, where the needs of the group is the main goal. The market is a command economy, where the government controls and regulates businesses. Communism/socialism also stresses the leader for direction, correlating with Islam's Khlifah. Marx just took Muslims Sharia, removed the importance of God, and emphasized the rights for workers and not owners.

Democracy, as we all know, is a market economy. The emphasis is placed of invidualism, where individuals have the capacities to move up or down. Market economies encourages avarices, and is opposite ideology of what Islam is suppose to be.

Collectivism (Shariah/Communism) Vs. Individualism (Democracy/Modern economies)

Right Wing, Left wing as all an illusion, both far left and far rights never help people.

Facism,Capitalism, Socialism and Communism, government systems i don't aggree with. I think Pashtunwali, Sharia Law or a loya jirga surpasses all these other systems.

Fascism, well, you know.... it's far right, and it makes a strict hierarchical system, where we have a ruling class, dictating the lower slave classes.

Capitalism is itself competetive, ofcourse, there is no government involved because it's a free-market, but gradually, a free-market ends dividing people into social hierarchical classes.

Socialism is like a very weak and slow version of communism. It is good, but there are some draw backs as with communism. Not that much , but rich people who worked their asses off for a good career get their money eaten away by taxes to distribute to, well, someone who doesn't deserve the wealth.

Communism, or Far-left, is very bad because it enslaves everyone, forcing them to work and work for the good of the state.

Difference between Facsism and communism is that Fascism allows a class or hierarchical system to be present, but force is still persistent and people have for work for the state. Communism is the same thing, people have to work for the state, but class divisions are seemingly eliminated.


A society run by every citizen who just care about their own life, and not the life of the state is a society i prefer.

Think about it. Sharia Law forbids people using interest or taxes, and so many modern societies are based on interest. The liberal Americans and the communist Russians brought the same damn thing, which is modernism.
