Peace in Islamic Nations

Islam means peace as well as submission to the Will of Almighty

God. Any individual can be at peace with himself or with other men or extrahuman

environment when he voluntarily submits or sun'enders his will to the

Universal Will which is the Will of God.

For a successful and peaceful individual life man needs to have a

correct perspective and a proper outlook. This correct perspective and

outlook can be acquired through the divine revelations only, as human

intellect cannot perceive the whole reality and comprehend all domains of

life. For collective peace or peace among men and nations of the world

man is even more dependent on the divpe guidance. Human mind is not

capable enough to derive and promulgate principles and laws for peace

among men and nations. This complexity deepens when there is every chance

that instinctively man may pursue ends for him and the group(s) to which

he belong. Thus, it is innate requirement for mankind to refer to the divine

teachings for peace among men and nations of the world.

The individual and collective lives of men are so interwoven and

interdependent that individual peace many a times remains at stake to the

collective disorder. The teachings of Islam as such comprehend both the

individual and collective lives of men. Islam provides a system and a

discipline which embodies its principles for the individual and collective hves

of men for their peace, well-being and development.The basic principles for

collective life in Islam are so comprehensive, universal and humane that they

form a strong baseline for orchestrating peaceful relations amongst men.

These basic principles are both religious and temporal and dominate all the

spheres and comers of man's collective life including relations among

different nations of the world. These principles or tenets are universal both

in concept and applicability.
