But this ideology is a strain within Islam that represents an organized, substantial, powerful, and funded minority. What might loosely be called Islamism is based on a politicization of religion that is fundamentally incompatible with the modern world, for it assumes that there is one true religion, only one interpretation of that religion, and that this interpretation should prevail and dominate all countries’ politics, government institutions, and social life.
但这一意识形态是伊斯兰教内部的一大成分，代表着一群有组织的、为数相当庞大的、实力相当强大的、资金相当充裕的少数派。广义的伊斯兰教是宗教的政治化，它与现代世界根本上不相容，因为它认为存在一个真正的宗教，这种宗教只有一种解释，并且这种解释应该在所有国家的政治、政府机构和社会活动中胜出并占主宰地位。不持有这一观点的人必须征服。
