You seem to have pre-decided on pre-conceived notions. Look at your thread title "Socialism, Communism, Totalitarianism... The Road To Serfdom A Review".
Isn't USA another kind of totalitarian and militarist state and didn't modern socialist movements in many countries and some regions ( like in India - look at my reference to Naxalbari earlier ) liberate the serfs there ??
You are incorrect. You should read about certain Islamic theories / facilities like property inheritance and making of wills. You will find socialist ideas there.
You have not read this thread of mine from 2016 which is an article by Nadeem Paracha about Socialist activism among Muslims in previous decades. This activism again was due to questioning and dialogue among Muslims for problems and issues of the modern world.
"Parvez was a prominent ‘Quranist’, or an Islamic scholar who insisted that for the Muslims to make progress in the modern world, Islamic thought and laws should be entirely based on the modern interpretations of the Qu’ran and on the complete rejection of the hadith (sayings of the Prophet and his companions based on hearsay and compiled over a 100 years after the Prophet’s demise)."
"Apart from continuing to author books and commentaries on the Qu’ran, Parvez wrote a series of articles in Talu-e-Islam that propagated a more socialistic view of the holy book."
Are you serious...?
Islam rejects Bidah (innovations), how are you going to accept a state that can only be conceived out of force?
Unlike Communism/Socialism (force), Capitalism came about through stages in time through the laws of nature that befitted mans nature & needs in successive times. Marxism was forged by the pen, it was no different than Platos "Republic", it couldn't state the test of reality just because it didn't come about in stages; A socialist state can work in the ideal sense, but so can any system out there, even anarchy.
I am a Muslim through and through, and capitalism was the system of choice that was already there during the prophets time. I am a Capitalist through and through because the Prophet was a capitalist, Sahabas like Othman, Abu Bakr, Abdur Rahman (may Allah have mercy on them) became rich due to capitalism. To Socialism, I say thanks but no thanks, I will the follow the system of my dear Prophet (AS).
