Principle 48 — Peace Culture

English · 1 min read

Peace Culture

One of the teachings of Islam is that when a person meets someone, both should greet each other. (Sunan an-Nasai, Hadith No. 10078) That is, they should say “peace be upon you” to each other. Islam is a culture of peace, and saying “peace be upon you” is a symbol of this culture.

The teaching of Islam is that there should be feelings of mercy and compassion for the other in the heart of every person. Every person should desire a peaceful life for another. Every person should strive to make society a symbol of peace and security. This is the basic teaching of Islam. The fact is that all the teachings of Islam are directly or indirectly based on the principle of peace because, without it, no constructive work can be done. Where there is no peace, there will be no development. Peace is as important to the development of society as water is to the fertility of the land.
