Therefore, it can be said that material developments of disbelievers after the European revolution have been more due to their abandoning spirituality and forgetting the life of the Hereafter rather than the result of their more knowledge and efforts; because due to exhaustion brought on by the anti-intellectualism of the Church for thousands of years, they decided to separate from religion and designed and created a system devoid of belief in the unseen that still lives on steadily and increasingly. The role of this new materialistic system, which has overshadowed the whole world, is very clear and prominent in spreading and institutionalizing worldliness; because this atheistic system, over the past two centuries, has turned worldliness into the official and public culture of the world by using new propaganda tools and creating an unnatural cycle of supply and demand; to the extent that even Islamic countries have not been safe from its influence, and most Muslims have lost their concern for the Hereafter under its domination; because, as it is evident, today the individual and social priority of most Muslims is to provide livelihood and material welfare, while the individual and social priority in Islam is to secure the Hereafter and achieve Islamic goals, and there is no doubt that if this is done, material livelihood and welfare will also be adequately and equitably provided.

[Consequences of worldliness]

This is an important fact that the result of worldliness, contrary to popular perception, is not an improvement in the situation of the world; because worldliness is turning away from the Hereafter, and turning away from the Hereafter is turning away from justice and moral values, and this not only does not lead to an improvement in the situation of the world, but in an inverse equation, it leads to an increase in the class gap and, consequently, to war; while war alone can destroy all worldly achievements. Therefore, it is evident that the new worldliness has failed to solve the problems of the world; because although it has made the life of the world easy for a minority of people, it has turned it into an unbearable calamity for the majority of them; as according to official statistics, half of the wealth of the world is in the possession of one percent of its population, and ten children die of hunger every minute in it,
