🔸 Thus, in the framework of Islamic governance, society must seek true elements of power, with the primary pillars being the people and economy. The greatest political exaggeration of our time is the portrayal of those with brute force as those with true power. Wherever a brute has taken the throne, one can find the influence of wealth and deceit. Wealthy elites support the brute, while deceivers legitimize his actions. While some may gain brute force through warfare, their reign endures only with the backing of wealth and deceit.

🔹 Today, global economic cartels stand beside the wielders of brute force. But now, deceivers are not limited to corrupt religious figures; much of this role is assumed by media, which distort realities to glorify those with brute force. In other words, media has become the executive arm of brute force and deceit.

🔴 Exaggeration in religion was calling someone without the merit to lead the Muslims as “Commander of the Faithful.” Exaggeration in politics is portraying a brute as a true leader and striving to boost his popularity. Political exaggeration is not politics; it’s deception.

🔸 Yesterday, religious exaggeration was widespread, today it is political, and in the future, this political exaggeration may fade, giving way to exaggeration in other areas, such as mysticism, becoming society’s dominant misrepresentation. Every era has its own form of exaggeration.

✨ Two Islams, Two Paths: The Wisdom of Imam Ali (AS)

🎙️ Based on the words of Dr. Hassan Rahimpour Azghadi:

---

❓ To Imam Ali (AS) they said: "Why do you, our leader, live so simply?"

💬 He replied: "I live in such a way that the beggars and the enslaved feel pity for me. I want them to look at me and say, 'Even our Imam's condition is not better than ours!' A ruler must live at or below the average standard of the people."

---

☪️ Today, we witness two Islams:

1. The Islam of Ali (AS): The true, demanding path. It says: "Be hard on yourself. Impose hardships upon yourselves so that the people may live in ease." Imam Ali (AS) said: "Sleep escapes me at night knowing that a single family in the Islamic land may be kept awake by hunger. How then can I sleep?"
2. The Islam of Muawiyah: The convenient, indulgent path. It is, unfortunately, more popular. It says: "Do whatever you wish. Take it easy. Don't be hard on yourself. If it gets difficult for the people... well, it gets difficult."

This struggle between the Islam of conscience and the Islam of convenience, between the Imam who shares the people's pain and the ruler who indulges, is the real division. It is not merely about Sunni and Shia labels.

Today, both claim to love the Ahl al-Bayt (AS). Both recite the Quran. Both profess to follow the Prophet (PBUH). Yet, their cores—their understanding of responsibility, justice, and sacrifice—are worlds apart.
