Islam and Peace
What is Islam? A religion followed by Muslims. They believe that there is only one God who is Almighty and has created the whole universe. They believe that there will be an end to all this world and life, and after that everyone will have to answer to Allah about his or her deeds in this world. The world hereafter has two destinations for the people in this world either they go to heaven- if they do good deeds or they are sent to hell- if they do crimes or indulge in evil activities.
They follow there Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.) peace be upon him. He (S.A.W.) is the messenger of Allah and has enlightened the path towards Heavens in the never ending life hereafter.
What is the concept of peace in Islam? Muslims believe in a strict policy of denying discrimination on the basis of color, race, language and gender. Moreover Islam teaches them that there is no one superior to the other, everyone is equal in front of Allah but those who observe “TAQWA”. Moreover Islam teaches them to prefer others’ needs over their own ones- to give others even when you need something yourself. These teachings show that Islam is a religion of peace and Muslims believe that even in case of war against anyone, they are forbidden to harm any children or women or even anyone who has no aggression against them.
So weather it is a war or a state of pace, Islam and Peace stay connected.
