The Ideology of Peace Towards A Culture of Peace by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Peace, always desirable for its own sake, has been vital to human progress in every age. The difference now in this nuclear age is that it has literally become a matter of life and death for humanity. Peace means life: its absence leaves no hope of human survival. The writer's aim, therefore, is to present peace in the form of a complete ideology, an ideology which awakens human consciousness; which provides the answer to all life's problems in terms of peace; which describes the crucial importance of peace, right from the individual to the international level. In essence, peace is not an option: it is our destiny.
