Only Love Can Defeat Terrorism




                   (Surah Al-'Imran: 104) Allah also reveals how that invitation
                   is to be made:

                        Call [them] to the way of your Lord with wisdom and
                        fair admonition, and argue with them in the kindest
                        way. Your Lord knows best who is misguided from His
                        way,   and He knows best who are guided. (Surat an-
                        Nahl: 125)

                        Correct and courteous words accompanied by
                        forgiveness are better than charity followed by
                        insulting words. Allah is Rich Beyond Need, All-
                        Forbearing. (Surat an-Nahl: 263)
                                        True believers know the importance of

                                        this responsibility, described in the
                                           Qur'an: "They believe in Allah and
                                                         the Last Day, and
                                                         enjoin the right and
                                                         forbid the wrong,
                                                           and compete in
                                                            doing good. They

                                                          are    among     the
                                                      righteous." (Surah Al-
                                                       'Imran: 114) Therefore,
                                                        they call on all those
                                                        around them, friends,
                                                        relatives,   everyone
                                                        they can reach, to
                                                        believe in Allah, fear
