Practical Solutions to Establish World Peace July 2024

4th March 2023 – National Peace Symposium, UK

‘Islamic teachings require every effort to be made to bring a peaceful solution to a conflict. For this reason, I believe it is essential to keep the channels of communication open and to strive to find mutually acceptable terms of agreement. If, however, the aggressor remains bent on causing misery and destruction and refuses to withdraw, Islam teaches that other nations should join together as one and use proportionate and necessary force to end the cruelties. … I firmly believe that this can only happen when mankind sets aside its selfish ways and materialistic desires and comes to recognise and worship the One God and strives to fulfil His rights and act upon His teachings.’
