The True Jihad

Tolerance!! Its Significance Today ~ 102 ~ tolerant human beings in a society is just like the blooming of flowers in a garden. TOLERANCE: THE PRICE OF PEACE We cannot have anything in this world without paying for it. Everything has its price and this is particularly true of peace. If we want peace, we should be ready to pay for it or stand deprived of it. What is the price of peace? It is simply tolerance. We live in a world of differences, and these differences cannot be eliminated. Therefore, we have only two options before us: adopting the policy of either tolerance or intolerance. While the latter leads to violence, the former ensures peace. Where there is tolerance there is peace, and where there is intolerance, there is war and violence. There is only one universal formula of tolerance for peace, and this same formula may be successfully applied to one’s family life and to social life, as well as at the international level. The root cause of most of our problems is traceable to our deviation from the peaceful model of nature.
