Islam is a Religion of Love and Peace
The definition of Islam
The root of the word Islam, silm, refers to "making
peace, being in a mutually peaceful environment, greetings, rescue, safety,
being secure, finding peace, reaching salvation and well being or being far
from danger, attaining goodness, comfort and favor, keeping away from troubles
and disasters, submitting the self and obeying, respect, being far from
wrong." The "submitting the self and obeying" here means
"submitting to justice and righteousness in order to reach peace and
safety and being in a peaceful environment by one's free will." In fact,
salaam and salaamat, mean "to reach salvation," and their rubai form
(with four radical letters) aslama means "submitted, became Muslim, and
made peace." "Islam" as either a noun or a verb with these
meanings is mentioned in many verses in the Qur'an.1
From this perspective, Islam is "submission to God,
accepting His authority as well as obeying His orders"; "one's total
submission to God and serving only Him"; "embracing the messages of
the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and abiding by them." In this
sense, a Muslim is one who is under the peaceful and safe shade of Islam. God
wants a Muslim to live in a safe and peaceful environment and to make efforts
for the spread and continuity of peace.
Since Islam means living in a peaceful environment that
emerges as a result of submission to God, the Qur'an asks that all humanity
should embrace silm, that is, peace, and reminds us to avoid following Satan.
As stated in the verse, O you who believe! Come in full submission to God, all
of you, (without allowing any discord among you due to worldly reasons), and do
not follow in the footsteps of Satan, for indeed he is a manifest enemy to you
(seeking to seduce you to rebel against God, with glittering promises) (Qur'an,
2:208), Satan is the enemy of peace. This verse is followed by a reminder of
God's All-Glorious with irresistible might if believers "stumble and fall
back" from following God's way to realize peace and agreement.
The purpose of Islam
In order to be able portray a fair image of Islam, we have
to consider its divinely inspired purposes, which yield, as a result, a just
worldly order. By applying preventive measures to ensure security of wealth,
life, mind, religion, and reproduction, Islam aims to build a society in peace,
serenity, friendship, collaboration, altruism, justice, and virtue.
According to the Qur'an, all Muslims are brothers and
sisters to each other and if a disagreement appears among them they make peace
and correct it (Qur'an, 49:10). They help each other to avoid what God forbids
and to observe their religious awareness at every stage in their life (Qur'an,
5:2); they carry out important tasks after shura, that is, consultation
(Qur'an, 3:159; 42:38); and they always witness truthfully and are just even if
it is against their close relatives (Qur'an, 4:135).
Again, as mentioned in the Qur'an, a true Muslim follows the
straight path. That means that he or she is faithful, honest, and just, is
calm, lives to perfectly observe his or her religion and in guidance of
reason.2 Pursuing the straight path can be understood as being absolutely
truthful and honest in all circumstances, as well as embracing a moderate way
of life that encourages good relations with everyone.
Living on the straight path is the most significant desire
for any Muslim. Upon the revelation of the verse, Pursue, then, what is exactly
right (in every matter of the Religion), as you are commanded (by God), and
those who, along with you, have turned (to God with faith, repenting their
former ways, let them do likewise); and do not rebel against the bounds of the
Straight Path (O believers)! He indeed sees well all that you do (Qur'an,
11:112), the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "The chapter Hud
has made me older."3 In this sense, the Companions commented on the verse,
"There was no verse revealed to the Prophet Muhammad that is more powerful
than this." Such a verse that so powerfully enjoins "what is
right" should have the power to eradicate all kinds of violence and
oppression, which are obviously not the right path to follow in social
relations.
