"The very first lesson that I learnt from the Qur’an was the message of unity and peace." ― Cat Stevens Topic(s): Peace More From Cat Stevens "This is the beauty of the Qur’an: it asks you to reflect and reason, and not to worship the sun or moon but the One who has created everything. The Qur’an asks man to reflect upon the sun and moon and God’s creation in general." "I’ve studied various schools of thought… I acknowledge that some Muslims consider music prohibited, but I’ve found a lot of evidence from the life of the Prophet to show that he allowed certainly, but even encouraged, music at certain times." "Salman Rushdie, indeed any writer who abuses the prophet or indeed any prophet under Islamic law, the sentence for that is actually death." More In Peace "We extend our hand towards peace. Our people are committed to peace. We know that peace entails painful compromise for both sides."― Ariel Sharon "We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other’s children."― Jimmy Carter "On all the peaks lies peace."― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
