are not tortured, jailed or mistreated. The Qur'an, as earlier mentioned,
commands fair and kind treatment of people and summons man to
refrain from violence, cruelty, greediness and going beyond the limits.
Denouncing violence and injustice on Earth requires that we assume the
responsibility for communicating the existence of Allah, the Day of
Judgment and the values of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Those who
abstain from this duty and simply ignore it should fear the wrath of Allah,
since Allah puts man to test in this world:

Messengers brought them the Clear Signs, but they were never going to
have faith. That is how We repay evildoers. Then We appointed you after
them to be heirs on the earth so We might observe how you would act.
(Surah Yunus: 13-14)
Causes of War
Only an analysis conducted on the causes of war would reveal the
irrational grounds on which wars are waged. No war has reasons that
justify it being worth the cost of thousands of lives and of even more
enormous numbers of wounded. The major reason that wars are the
source of enduring pain for humanity, and utter ruin for national
economies, are the people who are apt to do mischief and violate others'
rights. This character is best described as being merciless and selfish.
Totally bereft of all humane qualities such as compassion, mercy and the
ability to co-operate, such people only pursue their personal greed and
strive to satisfy their cravings for leadership. In the words of the Qur'an,
this character is described as follows:
Whenever he holds the upper hand, he goes about the earth corrupting it,
destroying (people's) crops and breeding stock. Allah does not love
corruption. When he is told to have fear for Allah, he is seized by pride
which drives him to wrongdoing. Hell will be enough for him! What an evil
resting-place! (Surat al-Baqara: 205-206)
Often, violation of one country's rights by another becomes the reason
why a country wages war on another. A war declared for an acre of land
