On September 11, 2001, the World Trade Center collapsed due to Al-Qaeda attacks. Those were the darkest days for the family and friends of the victims and also for Muslims around the world. Al-Qaeda is a militant Islamic group, also known as extremists or terrorists, calling for a global Jihad. Many terrorists may be Muslims, but not all Muslims are terrorists. I am here today to clear the name of Muslims and what is Islam's view on peace, Jihad and terrorism. The very meaning of Islam is that of peace for mankind and submission to God. "All mankind is as one community" is a glorious verse of the Quran which shows the truth that we should decide our own matters and resolve our own differences like brothers. We are like a holy family of ladies. We are all sons and daughters of Adam and Eve and are made of clay. No one is made of silver or gold. We must respect each other, because peace is the best policy. Peace is religion and religion is peace. The whole world can become the cradle of happiness if people learn to live reasonably and honestly. In the psalm of David look for peace in these words; “I will lie down and lie down in peace, because you alone, Lord, make me live in safety” (4.8). Jesus Christ gave the message of love, peace, tolerance and non-violence. The Gospel of John reports the following words of Jesus: “Peace I leave with you; I give you my peace. I don't give to you like the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid" (14,27). Likewise the Quran urges peaceful treaties. In the well explained chapter the Quran says; “Answer what is best, so that he between whom there was animosity and you may be as an intimate friend. And no one should be given this rank except… the center of the card… with open arms. So, all in all, Islam was a religion of peace, is a religion of peace and will always be a religion of peace.
