Is religion the opium of the people?

العربية español Русский ગુજરાતી 中文

As a matter of fact, religion is commitment and responsibility. It makes the conscience alert and urges the believer to hold himself accountable for all his deeds, the big and small. The believer is responsible for himself, his family, his neighbor, and even for the passerby. He utilizes the available means and relies upon Allah, and I do not think that such are the qualities of the opium addicts. [43] Opium is a kind of drug extracted from the poppy plant and that is used in making heroin.
