According to Maulana, violence always begins in the
mind, so we have to uproot it from the mind itself. This
would call for a total mental re-conditioning of the
minds of individuals. That is, we have to rid the minds
of the individuals of the ideology of violence, which is
activating them and replace it with the ideology of
peace. The ideology of peace – presented in his books –
has successfully re-oriented individual’s minds all over
the world. They have abandoned violent ways in favour of
a peaceful course of action and engaged themselves in
constructive activities.
The ideology of peace presented in the Islamic
Scriptures thus presents to the world the only practical
formula for peace. |
