Maulana Wahiduddin Khan is named as the default author of the periodical; a piece that carries another writer’s byline is credited to that writer.
As someone has very rightly said, ‘Nature abhors uniformity.’ When differences are themselves a law of nature, how can religion be an exception to this rule? The fact is that, just as differences are found in everything else in the world, so also there are differences between one religion and another. We have not thought it necessary to eliminate differences in other matters, but instead have agreed to disagree. We should adopt the same practical formula in matters of religion as well. Here, too, we should emphasize unity despite differences. The fact is that there is only one way to resolve the issue of religious differences: ‘Follow one, and respect all.’ One Who Has Full Faith In God Never Falls A Prey To Frustration. In All Situations, He Is Convinced That God Will Certainly Come To His Rescue.
