“The Islamic society establishes its relations with the members of the society and with other societies according to the command of Allah,” Ayatollah Araki added.
Quoting the verse of the Holy Quran:
“Indeed, your Lord is Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and then settled on the Throne. He draws the night’s cover over the day, which pursues it swiftly, and [He created] the sun, the moon, and the stars, [all of them] disposed of by His command. Look! All creation and command belong to Him. Blessed is Allah, the Lord of all the worlds,” –
He said that “Almighty Allah in this verse emphasizes that Creation and command belong to Him. This is contrary to the secular view of Allah; they consider Allah the Creator of the universe but do not see the command in His hands.”
Only the Islamic society follows the path and command of Allah, avoiding His prohibitions, he sends the Holy Prophet (PBUH) to enlight the path so that the prophet will be the only one we must accept all he says and avoid everything he abstains us from, he the refer to the word “Whatever the Messenger has given you, take it and abstain from what he forbids you”.

He added that those who oppose the Islamic identity are the unbeliever ruler as he said: Two identities are opposed to each other, the identity that follows the will of Allah and the identity that follows the will of the unbeliever ruler.
He then said the verse: “Those who have faith fight in the way of Allah, and those who are faithless fight in the way of fake gods. So, fight the friends of Satan. Indeed, the stratagems of Satan are always flimsy. Those who are infidels fight in the way of unbeliever ruler and they are the guardians and followers of Satan.”
