ISLAM AND PEOPLE
Today, if people see that a religion of such grandeur and magnificence has become a tool within the hands of certain powers, and entangled in a web of cheap words spoken by the weak-minded, they will turn away from such a feeble religion. Religion can harmonize itself at any time and with any culture. The foundations of Islam stand on human values, the rehabilitation of justice and the safe guarding of peoples rights. Islam is a religion of logic, rationality, and wisdom, but that which can always lead to the metamorphosis of religion and its corruption is power, not people and human beings. People in Islam play a major role in safeguarding their own rights. In Islam, an individual wisdom can not rule over the collective wisdom. In Islam, the words “I say” meaning “I order” are of no value. The aim of Islam is to make human beings from within and this goal cannot be reached through pressure and war. Islam says, “Come and let us oppose injustice and oppression.”
