Muslims can build a similarly splendid and
world-illuminating culture and civilization
again, but not until they recreate the spirit of
unity and solidarity that drove their prede-
cessors. If they can establish a democratic,
constructive, and peace-loving culture that
works only for the benefit of Islam and hu-
manity and disregards personal interests,
they can build the greatest civilization of the
twenty-first century. Thanks to the core val-
ues of Islamic morality (e.g., love, compas-
sion, and sympathy), the despotic regimes
ruling Muslim lands will fall; cultural and
economic development will be achieved;
Muslims suffering from oppression, cruelty,
and even cold-blooded massacre will find
peace and security; and a new "Blessed Pe-
riod" will become a reality.
