Global Peace – An Islamic Perspective ACET– Global Peace Project

The Global Peace Project aims to provide a detailed explanation of the core ideas of peace, love,

and harmony that are present across some of the most practiced religions in the world today,

including Islam.

In highlighting some of the underlying values of Islam as they are presented in Islam’s

fundamental text, the Quran, Global Peace – An Islamic Perspective aims to prevent misguided

radicalisation of people, including youth from an Islamic background. By gaining a deeper

understanding of the religion and its inherently peaceful teachings, we hope people will refrain

from engaging in violence and aggression against fellow human beings. Providing a better

understanding of Islam is also intended to decrease the discrimination and harassment that
many Muslims face today.

This book is the first in a series of publications being written for religious and non-religious people

all around the world. It is our hope that through education, knowledge, and understanding

of various religions, we can help to reduce violence and promote a more peaceful and

harmonious world. A world where people are able to live together in harmony and love is

possible, remembering that despite our differences, we all belong to the one human race.
