Superiority Complex Leads to Evil CONTENTS

English book, p. 391

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

No One is an Eternal Enemy so or not. If, apparently, he has any power, he should even then see whether or not it is in conformity with wisdom. Without taking into account the twin conditions of power and wisdom, the extirpation of evil is rebellion rather than the implementation of an Islamic command. NO ONE IS AN ETERNAL ENEMY If one appears to be your antagonist, never regard him as your permanent opponent. Attribute his opposition as temporary in nature. Try to influence him positively. I n the first half of the twentieth century, the general thinking of the communist world was that those who were not with them were their enemies. Such thinking was, both erroneous and destructive. For about 50 years, all the communists who indulged in this foolish thinking set about massacring all those people who did not agree with their movement. In the former Soviet Union, the communists killed twenty million people and destroyed the lives of countless families.
