آلهة أخرى | OTHER GODS — The Forensic Audit of Modern Shirk
OTHER GODS | آلِهَةٌ أُخْرَى is Stage 1.5 of The Source of Truth System™. It extends the question of Tawheed into a forensic examination of the rival authorities, loyalties, desires, identities and systems that may compete with ultimate allegiance in modern life. The book does not reduce shirk to statues or ancient ritual forms. It asks how wealth, status, ideology, institutions, social approval, appetite, personality and power can acquire functional ultimacy when they are obeyed, feared, loved or trusted beyond their proper limits. This institutional research and book framework edition distinguishes theological classification from analytical diagnosis and avoids casual judgement of individuals. Its concern is structural: what receives final authority in a human life, and what happens when created things are treated as ultimate?
