Towards this end Muslims all over the world must establish a large institution with the name Universal Peace Centre. All the Muslim countries, organizations and Muslims with resources should become members of this centre. The Universal Peace Centre should be set up with the common support of all Muslims. It should be structured in accordance with international standards and should be completely non-political, noncommunal and non-commercial. The sole purpose of this centre should be to promote peace and replace the culture of violence with the culture of peace all over the world. The Muslim community owes a debt to God and His creation. They have to be true well wishers to mankind. This Universal Peace Centre will be a means to fulfil this global responsibility of the Muslims. God will assist them in this task. At present, Muslims are more than one billion in number and are spread out all over the world. All kinds of rich natural resources are available in Muslim countries. They can make the best use of these resources for achieving the most positive results for mankind. o The culture of interdependence promotes all kinds of human values and is therefore, the best social scheme.
