Harun Yahya - Adnan Oktar

people's freedom of thought and life, discourages tension and
dispute between people, and even forbids suspicion, negative
thoughts and words about one another. Our envisaged union
must be formed by Muslims who operate on that basis and work
for world peace.
The Qur'anic morality requires that Muslims refrain from

war and conflict and resolve disputes by dialogue and agree-
ment. In the Qur'an, Allah considers war to be an unwanted ne-
cessity and a last resort that must abide by strict humanitarian
and moral rules. Muslims are charged with always siding with
peace and agreement, and fighting only in self-defense if at-
tacked by the enemy. Allah reveals that it is evil-doers who begin
war and that He does not like them:
Each time they kindle the fire of war, Allah extinguishes it.
They rush about the land corrupting it. Allah does not love
corrupters. (Surat al-Ma'ida: 64)
