PEACE—A COMPLETE CODE OF CONDUCT

English book, PDF p. 7

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

~ 7 ~ PEACE—A COMPLETE CODE OF CONDUCT Violence and peace both have wide connotations. Violence includes everything from hatred to war. The same is true of peace, which includes everything from tolerance to love. Violence and peace are both the results of human thinking. Those who engage in violent activities are the worst people in this world, while those who opt for peaceful behaviour are the best. Peace means normalcy, and normalcy provides all such opportunities as favour the growth of a healthy environment. A natural condition should prevail, where people can live and work without any external hindrance. Violence closes the doors to positive activities, while peace opens the doors to healthy activities. It creates an atmosphere of positive living for the individual, society and the nation at large. All kinds of achievements are possible in an environment of peace. If violent situations hamper opportunities, peace helps favourable situations to flourish, where man’s creative abilities can be nurtured and developed.
