Maulana Wahiduddin Khan's blog

In the use of violence, man simply follows his basic instincts, while to promote peace; man has to give himself a complete moral overhaul. Only after such a conversion is the individual able to play the role of a peace-loving person.

For violence to erupt provocation is enough; while for peace to prevail man has to nullify provocation with moderation and restraint.

Man needs to convert non-peace into peace, for only after this conversion is he able to play the role of a peaceful person.

For peace to be a reality in the world of man, man has to be a well-wisher rather than an ill-intentioned person of others.
