Jordanian Hizb ut-Tahrir activist Dr. Mohammad Malkawi, also known as Abu Talha, delivered a speech at a mosque in Schaumburg, Illinois, where he sharply attacked the concept of democracy, describing it as an “idol” that contradicts the will of Allah.
Speaking at the Noon Islamic Center, Malkawi claimed that democracy is “dead,” “killed,” and “eaten” by its own supporters, arguing that it ultimately leads to the erosion of human rights rather than their protection.
In his remarks, Malkawi also defended Iran’s post-1979 Islamic Revolution system, stating that the Iranian people legitimately chose their current form of governance. He questioned how countries that, in his view, violate human rights in Gaza could demand changes in Iran’s leadership. He concluded by asserting that democracy as an idea “is not worth our breath,” adding that it is not a reality and “not real.”
