English book · THE RELIGION OF HUMANITY: Islam’s Ethical and Spiritual Outlook

An Example of Noble Character

English book, p. 437

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

A RELIGION OF PEACE people, a godly character should be nurtured—one worthy of dwelling in Paradise. This is the true aim of Islam, and it cannot be achieved through war or violence. There is only one means to attain this, and that is through intellectual discussion and dialogue. The method of Islam can be summed up in one phrase: peaceful discussion, not militancy. The purpose of Islam is to change people’s minds and win their hearts. Such serious work can only be accomplished in a peaceful manner. Violence is an obstacle in the path of Islam, not a help.
