Despite the boldness of the reckless failed youth and their families these days and their tendency to do whatever they want in any way they want as long as they have suspicious and unknown source money that enables them to practice debauchery and thuggery through it without taking into account the risks of that and what can result from it in the loss of the future, life and its happiness cannot be stable unless a person is safe with themselves, at peace of heart, calm of soul, not fearing the occurrence of harm that threatens their security and the security of their family and children, or undermines their religious values, or violates their sanctities, or strips away their goodness, or imposes on them what contradicts their religion and culture with ideas that destabilize their balance. Accordingly, Arab and Muslim youth in the diaspora must always be vigilant, constantly searching and observing, quick to act, highly ambitious, employing all their capabilities, harnessing their pens and minds in order to preserve the purposes of their culture and religion, strengthen their entity, and maintain their security from the calamity of events, the cunning of enemies, traitors, and deceivers among the children of their identity and religion. There is no doubt that one of the foremost matters to which efforts have been directed, minds concerned, and those with knowledge and pens engaged, is the topic of intellectual security, due to its great importance, good outcome when present, and the severe danger of its loss or breach.
The importance of intellectual security stems from its connection to the religion and morals of the nation, the foundation of its mention and elevation, and the reason for its glory and honor. Its ultimate goal is represented in the soundness of belief and its regulations, the cautions of customs and inherited traditions, upright conduct, and the affirmation of loyalty to all these factors that elevate human dignity, preserve thought and status, and correct belonging to them.
The importance of intellectual security also comes from its connection to other types of security, being the foundation for them and the most important pillar in their structural systems.
This leads us to note that there are many Arab and Muslim immigrants abroad who face enormous challenges not only at the economic level or at the level of political and religious affiliations but also at the social level, which has begun invading the minds of youth violently, making them easy victims in deep quagmires of intellectual and moral disorder resulting from many factors, the most important of which is the intellectual invasion they are exposed to either within the fragmented and unaware family in dealing with religious, moral, and cultural regulations, or through the surrounding societal factors of this family that is intellectually and behaviorally declining, which submits and succumbs to the surrounding challenges targeting its cohesion amid the harsh conditions of life abroad and absence of affiliation with identity and culture, and the erosion of adherence to belief and its constants.
Furthermore, the absence of the influence of religious institutions, which are preoccupied with side conflicts over influence and interests, makes these young people easy prey to the rampant intellectual invasion that facilitates intellectual, security, and moral downfall operations, making them hardened tools against social values and a strong blow to family cohesion to achieve the goal of destabilizing a cohesive society by undermining the foundations of belonging to identity, culture, language, and creed, all by the hands of its children through their surrender to the intellectual invasion that grinds their youth, fragments their ambitions, destroys their hopes, topples their constants, and devours their future.
But the question here is, in whose interest are the Arab communities in the diaspora being destroyed and their intellectual security undermined by striking the head of the family pyramid to bend it to accept the impossible that contradicts their customs, traditions, culture, identity, and creed?!
In whose interest do some cheap, failed, and criminal tools conspire to overthrow family values while they know that this will topple all societal components and open the door wide to undermining the foundations of cultural and religious cohesion?!
To answer this complex question, we need to research the factors that drive the tools of intellectual invasion to work on collapsing societal foundations by attacking the intellectual security of the pillars of these societies represented by the youth.
How can it not be so when we face the glaring truth that those we thought were standing pillars firmly rooted in societal structure export their failure in upbringing to others, confirming their desire to share the moral, behavioral, intellectual, and educational failure so that destruction spreads in the societal structure, disregarding all the risks resulting from overthrowing the intellectual security of the individual and society!
How can it not be so when we face criminal models that work on destroying the immigrant’s educational, moral, and cultural message for no reason other than they see no path to success except wrongdoing, encouraged by hidden tools and perhaps their sponsors as long as they implement a treacherous agenda whether consciously or unconsciously, in order to destroy the pristine stereotypical image of the Arab and Muslim immigrant who seeks to paint a mosaic tableau of creative models participating in building and development processes, not looting, fraud, deception, crime, kidnapping, and violating others’ dignity!
This matter itself is a very dangerous model because it works on striking the intellectual security of the individual and society, thus facilitating the process of weakening and bending it to fall into the quagmires of intellectual invasion to undermine its moral structure, bend it, and then restrain it. This acts as a malicious attraction to the quadrants abandoning the idea of pride in culture, belonging to creed, and adherence to identity, which are the foundations that make individuals strong and influential in the diaspora, thus positively reflecting on the public interest of all societal components in full, whether at the level of the individual, family, or society.
There may be much talk about this matter but it is extremely sensitive and requires great efforts, natural disposition, open-minded thought, normal mental health, open chests, enlightened minds, and esteemed community leaders with dignity who rise from their beds when harm approaches their communities, families committed to customs and traditions, and cadres aware of the dangers of abandoning the origins of upbringing, and ambitious youth with high ambition who understand the dangers of isolation and falling into the quagmires of surrender to intellectual invasion and striking the intellectual security of the individual, family, and the communities to which they belong.
Perhaps there is a message I intended through this article but there is also a anguish and profound sadness about the deteriorating condition of values and the intellectual security of Arab youth in the diaspora staggering under the weight of major challenges and clear collusion, where the reality says that migration is costly and that many factors push migrant youth towards crime instead of elevating the spirit of hope to create a better future for themselves, which leads us to say there is no consolation for youth who have not inherited from their parents dignity, the spirit of zeal, the meaning of honor, and the importance of adhering to identity.
