Political Islam is a misnomer. Islam, in itself, is a political philosophy.
Islam means submission, humbling oneself, and obeying commands and heeding prohibitions without objection, sincerely worshipping Allah alone, believing what He tells us and having faith in Him.
@@majiddd17Phobia is an irrational fear. When it comes to Islam it’s common sense to dislike such an intolerant political ideology. It’s followers have completely wiped out every native culture with brutal violence, justified by verses from Koran and sunnah especially if it’s non-abrahamic. Gone are most of the ancient cultures of lands it has conquered.

However, unlike other religions it doesnt limit itself to spritual aspects but extends to political arena which has been taken advantage and get to manipulated by then colonial and now american influence.

Interesting Fact: If the population exchange in 1947 was complete, the unemployment & cost of living in India would be less than 70% what they're today. If there was no Islamic invasion(i.e., no Kashmir & Pakistan conflicts), the unemployment & cost of living in India would've been less than 50% of what they're today..
How will cost of living be less if the population exchange was complete?
True it doesn't make sense but definitely less birth rate in india and also some population removed from india. Overalll less people and more stable in all regions so india wouldn't waste money on Kashmir war and maintaining the state and the active military And it would have had slightly more secular educated people.
How cynically Mr Gupta compares growing religiosity among Hindus with Islamism. No Mr. Gupta your are wrong because fundamentals of both religions are different. Therefore fundamentalists will be different as well.

Islam is inherently political considering its strict rules that forbid queer rights, multiculturalism and atheism.

BJP doesnt apply those rules as the constitution gives freedom of individual to follow any belief peacefully. Since ancient times queer, atheism multiculturalism existed peacefully in India. Nastika people were not killed by kings.
India should keep it that way. I'm all for keeping islamism in check, that's absolutely necessary in every society, but to quote Nietzsche "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster". I think especially at the state level some of the BJP's laws about things like cow protection, bulldozer justice, have parallels in Islam and should be very thoroughly debated. On things like queer rights you don't have to follow the exact path of the west (which has had its own downsides) but its good to find a way to stay true to that ancient philosophical tradition of tolerance and debate which pre-dates even the Western ideas. @@koteswar009
Islam is political. There is nothing such as non political Islam. Please read.
Islam has spread through wars and conquests, even in its founding place with many non-muslim tribes wiped out and womenfolk captured. Plotics cannot be separated from it.

SG sir, Its not right to compare Islam with Hinduism. Islam is a religion with one god, one book, one set of prechings; whereas Hinduism is a way of life. Dont have one God, one book and inclusions is Dharm of Hinduism.
Having said that oucome with rise of Hinduism and Islam is not apple to apple comparison.
Even if people with counter views replace Hinduism with Hindutva in my above paragraphs, of rise of Hidutva will not lead to same consequences, because there is no binding force (of one God, one Book, one Preachings, or one Preacher) in Hindu, Hinduism, or Hindutava. Hence fear mongering is not needed

Islam is completely way of life,
Politics is also the part of life ,
Only portraying one side....
Surprised and funny to say Islam is not political ideology as its core ideology is to spread its faith and rule the whole world as Dar al Islam. Early Islamic legal theory divided the world into two divisions: "abode of Islam" and "abode of war". The first, called dar al-Islam, sometimes Pax Islamica, consisted of Muslims and non-Muslims living under Islamic sovereignty. The second was dar al-harb, ruled by non-Muslims and specifically infidels.
In fact I just read about the start of Rashidun Calipahte who succeeded their Prophet and how they conquered west Asia, northeast Africa, which is where most Islamic nations exist as the journalist said. Then came the Umayyad and Abassid Caliphates. He said India is excluded because Islam is not state religion. But one must remember the great kings from Kashmir, Rajasthan, Punjab, Gujarat, southern kings from Chalukya and Rashtrakuta who collaborated and defeated these three Calipahtes and they never again tried to attack after mid 800sCE after nearly over 2 centuries since 636 CE when their first naval attack on Thane was a defeat by local Indian king. Ofcourse many decades later Mohammad bin al Qasim conquered Sindh in 715 CE but the Arabs could not conquer India until Qutb ud din Aibak in 1206CE became first Sultan, only because Prithviraj Chauhan forgave Ghori in first battle of Tarain in 1191 CE, and next year Ghori defeated the former.

Maulana Maudidi & his history related to Aurangabad Maharashtra where Aurangzeb Grave is located....
Was big Supporter of Aurangzeb ideology of political Islam...
India should ban Jamaat-e-Islami & its radical ideology otherwise civil War situation like riots between hindus & muslims inside india is inevitable in future....
Just like it banned Jamaat-e-Islami in Kashmir where jamaat was supporting radicalistion in the valley...
half of the opposition parties are just as bad in my opinion
Islam is root. There are thousand of islamic terror organisation. Banning one will not do magic.
A great message to carry forward
Many religions,cultures, faith, beliefs and even ideas define a nation or a state even if they are at odds with each other. A nation is not a monolith as is evident by the example of a ever hostile neighbour Pakistan. Pakistan was carved out of india to protect the class interests of the Muslim elite in India. They feared loss of representation and political power in an independent and democratic India. But they forgot one thing that their would be space for everyone in india irrespective of their demographic strength. Pakistan's inability to develop as a nation that would be inclusive and accomodate differences has brought that nation to where it is standing today i.e security challenges, political instability, institutional corruption ,economic collpase and loss of geopolitical heft. Punjabi domination combined with Sunni islamism alienated every section of the society and triggered the alarm for minorities. Slowly this discontent is heavily weighing on this nation which is bracing for an impending collapse.
My humble assessment ......
.......
The Cat (US) gets the rat (Pakistan military establishment) to come to their country. The Cat has assessed how hungry the rat is and knowing very well the rat is unscrupulous but still wants to know how low it can go ! The rat discusses options and rewards with the smaller cat(US Defence). Quite possible the rat would have agreed to empower the militant groups along the border to create trouble for Iran in return for some rewards. Similar strategy by West to engage militant groups in Syria and Iraq to hurt Iran. That is why Iran is attacking these proxies.
For some decades Iran ofcourse has been behaving like a rogue nation empowering its proxies (Hamas, Hezobullah, Houthis et al) who all claim to fight for freedom for their people but ultimately will end up being war mongering dictatorial states like Pakistan should they become independent states.
Many of these Islamic states operate like war lords from the earlier centuries each dreaming up to reclaim muslim dominance they once enjoyed whether it be Iran, Turkey et al.
Saudis will be happy to see US get involved in a war against Iran their arch enemy and weaken them so that there is a regime change via a rebellion. Turkey would like Iran to maintain its status so that the Saudis are kept in check and possibly destabilised and they could become the leader of the Sunni world. Russia is looking for a chance to get out of the Ukraine war without losing face. That is possible only if the US gets involved in a war and thereby stops assistance to Ukraine that would give them an upperhand when peace talks happen. China wants the US to be knee deep in the war so that they will be weakened and they can get back to normal relations as a stronger player.
IT IS A STRANGE WORLD !!!
Shekhar Saab please make a video on global financial structure of political Islam the money flow to Islamic tsunami. Thanks for the wonderful video Sir.
Money flow to islamists. Correction in typing
What about political Hinduism these days sir....🌹🌹🌹🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🙏
Its a reaction to Political I S L A M. Remember Newton's 3rd law? Every action has equal and opposite reaction.
Political hindutva is everything other than Hinduism
our nation Bharat is also on a path of becoming Islamic nation. only difference is the religion and god. mejority Islamic state are with intolerance people, authotirian state, week institutions. In our nation, Mejority Hindu hates muslim and in a process of hating muslim, we are also becoming like muslim and in some cases worse than them.
Hinduism sanatan se isko islam se tulna kar chhota mat karo...🙏🙏
True.. Political Hinduism is more Dangerous for Indians and humanity as well.
India's Hindutva is also in the same league, Politics and Religion needs to be separate or more problems will be expected.
Great analysis
But where in lies the national interest if India in this context? I think the content of the National interest column of this episode belongs to some CTC episode, isn't appropriate for a national interest column.
Political or Radical?😅
Problem is u people really understand😊
Apologies. What are you trying to say?
Not only Political Islam but also any Religion that is Mixed and controlled by Politics and politicians are weakest and dangerous ......So Be it Political Islam, Political Hindu, Political Christian , Political Sikh, and Political Jews.........................Religious affairs must be handled by Religious people and not the Politicians or Prime Ministers..............

There is an american hand behind recent Iran pakisthan conflict
Excellent 👍

What an irony, in an 11 min long episode of "National Interest" the internet of the nation gets just a few seconds.
Here goes the " unhyphenated journalism". What a subtle slam on the Ram-Mandir Shekhar ji.
Wow, people realising injustice and saying killing of innocents is wrong is political now...
Sorry, Shekhar. I look forward to a CTC session on this subject.
As I see what is happening in the world including the Islamic world is the manifestation of "Survival of the fittest" and towards this end historically some groups are constantly trying to overpower other groups and as an extension, when a particular group becomes strong, sub groups emerge within that and the fight for survival continues.

Today's Arab world are not emodying the political Islam. Look at Umar's kingdom to know what it would look like.
Today's national intrest was a complete waste.

What you think about political hindutva... Where does it stay in global politics and what is its clout?
Islam requires obeisances and obedience and submission without question. Thanks to this very "peaceful" political "religion", a staunch beaf-eating alcohol-consuming porn-enjoying athiest like me have become a born again Hindu, after feeling the necessitation to house our culture against this peaceful dogma. Again, thank you, "peacelam".
That religion itself is a political ideology dressed up as a religion. Why do I say this? Read the islamic scriptures. God apparently tells to tax Jizya to non muslims instead of accepting and respecting them. God apparently tells the taxation rules and how to spread the only true religion. Every other religion is less than and should not be given equal justice. God apparently promises war booty and tells how to treat women as slaves, instead of talking about freeing them. All the rules are set.
Even in USA politics and Christianity go together
This political Islam has weakened religious Islam back from Abbasi to till now.
SG sir, please consider a cut the clutter on Iran - Pakistan border conflicts.Thank you.
SG IS CLEARLY TARGETTING RAM MANDIR AND HINDUTVA POLITICS IN NAME OF L
POLITICAL ISLAM. LISTEN TILL END WHEN HE SAYS THERR IS IMPORTANT LESSON FOR US, INDIANS
@Shekhar Ji Ayodhya hai kya
SG well said "Any Politics that's determined by RELIGION is today hugely outdated and its also been discredited over the centuries".
According to you
@@Reginald-Dyer
No Sanskari BJP MP Brij Bushan
So final conclusion is you are drawing parallels between terrorists and Hindus 😅
True sir
Jai Aghandha Bharat, from Tibet to Mauritius Iran to Cambodia. Jai Modiji
Sg needs to deep dive into islam to understand it better.
Honestly, this is the first time in many years the muslim countries in question arent using islam as the reason for the clash. Middle east has always been the capital of the crisis. Change in religions never made much difference. Khamenei wants the sassanid empire back and seems to be still following its foreign policy of annoying the hell out of its neighbors minus the constant wars.
