ISLAM & NON-VIOLENCE
Dr.Prof. Mehboob Desai
A number of misunderstandings prevail by connecting violence with
Islam. Ugly from of violence, even terrorism, has been connected with a
peaceful and value – based religion like Islam, due to
misunderstandings spread in the name of Kurbani and Jihad .
In this book the basic principles and the relation between Non-Violence
and Islam have been clarified through the life stories of Prophet
Hazerat Muhammad Paigamber, Islamic Caliphs and Saints.
This book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Islamic principle
have been drawn in which there is no directive for practicing
violence. In the second part the rule and life of four caliphs of Islamic
administration have been described in brief. In them, too, Islam
has been described as religion of mankind. In the view of Gandhiji
Hazerat Imam Hussein was the First Satiyagrahi of world. One of the
Chapter discusses the Imam Hussein and Battle of Badra. In the third
part, the incidents of the life of Prophet Hazerat Mohammad and
muslim Saints have been described. In them, too, Non-Violence is often
expressed.
Today when Islam is being defamed in the world by associating with
terrorism, qualities of Islam like Non-Violence, Humanity, Tolerance
and Gentleness etc. have been highlighted in this book.
