Does the description of religion as "the opium of the people" apply to Islam, and how do we respond to this claim?

Karl Marx, the founder of communist thought, believed that religion is the opiate of the masses. Communism is an atheistic ideology that denies the existence of God and the unseen, and holds that matter is the basis of everything. Their slogan is faith in Marx, Lenin, and Stalin, and disbelief in God, religion, and private property. They combat religions and consider them a tool for sedating the masses, with the exception of Judaism. They do not believe in an afterlife, punishment, or reward, and consider ethics to be relative.

To discuss with them, one must possess knowledge and understanding to refute their fallacies. The universe, with its order and precision, and humanity itself, bear witness to the existence of God. It is logically impossible for something to exist without a creator, so how then can this precise universe exist? Islam is the religion of Allah, and its law is valid for every time and place, capable of achieving advancement, security, and good for the individual and society.
