Which historical figure does Marji compare to God in her thinking?

• A. Mohammad
• B. Albert Einstein
• C. Karl Marx
• D. Beethoven

Answer: (C)

Marji’s thinking during the upheaval blends spiritual language with political belief. She treats Karl Marx as a source of justice and a guide to action, imagining his ideas as a protective, almost divine authority who can explain oppression and point toward a fair society. This is why he is the figure she elevates to the level of God in her thoughts: his writings symbolize a moral and political compass in a time of chaos and constraint. The other figures don’t align with that same sense of revolutionary justice she seeks; Mohammad is a religious figure, Einstein stands for science, and Beethoven for culture—none carry the same political promise of radical social change that Marx embodies for her.
