Faith in God's revelation has nothing to do with an ideology

Summary

This quote suggests that having faith in God's revelation is not synonymous with upholding or celebrating the existing social, political, or cultural order. It implies that simply following a religious belief does not necessitate blind conformity or unquestioning acceptance of the established norms and structures in a society. Instead, it encourages individuals to critically examine and challenge aspects of the status quo in light of their faith, pushing for growth, justice, and positive change.
