Be aware of “Trumpology” – A Dire Threat to Global Peace

8 Min Read

The horizon is no longer a line of hope but a jagged edge of uncertainty. As the world grapples with rising nationalism and divisive politics, the spectre of Trumpology looms large, threatening to upend global stability and undermine decades of diplomatic progress. It is a philosophy that seeks to build citadels out of suspicion and monuments out of grievances, forgetting that a house divided against itself—or a world divided against its neighbor—cannot stand.
In the Hejazi style, we must first look upward to the eternal constellations of guidance. The universe operates on a delicate equilibrium, and when man attempts to tilt this balance through arrogance and isolation, the fallout is catastrophic.
“And the heaven He raised and imposed the balance. That you not transgress within the balance.”
— Surah Ar-Rahman [55:7-8]
Trumpology is the very definition of transgressing that balance. It seeks to ignore the interconnectedness of the human soul. When the Quran reminds us:
“O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another…”
It defines the purpose of diversity as recognition, not rejection. Trumpology, however, views the other as a competitor to be crushed rather than a neighbour to be known. This is not merely a political shift; it is a spiritual regression.
To understand the danger of a leader who drills a hole in the bottom of the global boat to quench his own thirst, we recall the wisdom of the Prophet Muhammad, (peace and Blessings be upon him):
“The example of the person abiding by divine limits compared to those who violate them is like people on a ship…”
Trumpology is that hole being drilled in the lower deck. It is the insistence that one part of the world can be altered without affecting the whole. But in a globalized era, there is no lower deck that can sink without taking the upper deck with it.
Tinkle… clang… chink-a-chink…
The sound begins as a silver mist in the distance. It is the rhythmic, uneasy music of brass bells. From the haze of the bustling street emerges :BaBa Tal:. He is draped in the tattered robes of a beggar, yet he carries himself with the quiet gravity of a king in exile. Each bell, from the smallest chime to the heaviest gong, tells a story of a world out of tune.
He stops near a young diplomat, hurrying to a summit, leaning his weary weight upon the man’s shoulder. The bells settle into a low, trembling hum. BaBa Tal leans in, his breath dry and ancient, and whispers:
“Bacha! The man who builds a wall around his garden to keep the wind out soon finds his own breath has turned to stale smoke. You can not own the air, and you can not cage peace. The bells ring because they are struck; if you strike the world, expect a mourning song.”
Before the passer by can respond, BaBa Tal pulls away. The sound fades into the crowd, leaving behind a ghostly warning.
Tinkle… clang… chink-a-chink…
This time, the bells did not wander through dusty bazaars or echo in forgotten alleys of old empires. They trembled instead above restless waters—where oil sleeps beneath the waves, and nations hold their breath over every ripple.
“BaBa Tal” stood at the edge of the Strait of Hormuz, his robe dancing in the salt-heavy wind, his twenty-four bells restless, uneasy, as if they too sensed a storm not written in clouds, but in men’s intentions.
He leaned forward, whispering not to one man but to the horizon itself:
“Child… do not mistake this for a quarrel of doorsteps…
This is no bickering over broken fences…
This… is the carving of fire into water.”
The bells shivered.
“Trumpology,” he murmured, “is not a shout in a marketplace… it is a strategy that smiles while tightening the noose of the world’s breath. It is the arrogance that believes the ocean can be cornered… that the winds can be taxed… “That fear can be traded like oil.”
Chink… chink…
He bent down, touching the water with trembling fingers.
“Here… in these narrow veins of the earth… a spark does not remain a spark. It becomes a storm… and storms do not ask for passports.”
The bells grew louder, urgent now.
“A street quarrel burns two homes,” he whispered,
“but this… this burns the map.”
He straightened, his gaze distant.
“When powers play chess upon these waters… remember, child… the board is not wood—
it is flesh… it is the future… it is the fragile sleep of humanity.”
Clang…
“And when the first drop of fire falls into these waters…
do not ask who started it—
ask instead… who will survive the silence after.”
The wind rose. The bells cried once… then softened.
“BaBa Tal” walked away along the trembling shore, leaving behind only the echo—
not of sound…
but of warning.
The West, too, has long warned against the illusion of isolation. John Donne reminded us:
“No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent.”
Trumpology forgets this truth. It treats alliances as burdens and shared responsibility as weakness. In doing so, it diminishes the very foundation it claims to defend.
The world is a loom, and we are the threads. Peace is the pattern that emerges only when tension is shared. Trumpology is the blade that seeks to cut away the threads of others, believing the design can survive with only one colour.
We see the erosion of global institutions, the dismissal of collective agreements, and the transformation of economic tools into weapons. These are not simple policy shifts; they are fractures in the structure of global coexistence.
The threat to global peace is not found in a single wall but in the walls built within the human heart. If this ideology becomes the blueprint of the future, humanity will trade the vastness of the ocean for the safety of a shrinking puddle.
The choice before us is not political alone; it is moral, civilizational, and deeply human. Either we restore balance, or we prepare to inherit the silence that follows the storm.
