The world is in turmoil; mass killing, genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation of Muslim lands for natural resources,  oppression, expulsions, deprivation and exploitation of innocent, Muslims by power hungry corrupt despotic rulers, greedy powerful countrymen, extremist religious groups and Neo-colonial powers has reached unprecedented level. People are perplexed, they want to get out of this quagmire but there is no way out in sight.

The quest for “Peace and Justice” is exploited by foreign-sponsored extremist in the name of religion to recruit Jihadists for power, plunder and exploitation. It adds fuel to fire and provide lame excuse, justification for more oppression and killing of Muslims by the enemies of humanity.

Most of Muslim rulers & leadership have been entangled to tacitly serve agenda of hostile powers, just to protect their rule. The Muslim countries which were relatively strong and wealthy have been systematically dragged in to sectarian, ethnic & tribal civil war and breakup, thus adding fuel to fire.

World peace is not achievable while 1.5 billion Muslims, rich in culture, history and resources are kept in state of turmoil, none will be secure and safe. Hence there is need for the intellectuals, thinkers and all those feeling distressed, to come forward to work out short and  long term “Methodology for sustainable  Peace” to meet the present challenges and in future. It shall help to make a safe and peaceful world for the humanity.
Legacy of Abraham: 

Abraham [pbuh] is the common ancestor and spiritual father of Jews, Christians and Muslims, his faith forms the common ground:
“Abraham was neither a “Jew” nor a “Christian”, but was one who turned away from all that is false, having surrendered himself unto God; and he was not of those who ascribe divinity to aught beside Him.”(Qur’an;3:67)
“Abraham “believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.” So you see that it is men of faith who are the sons of Abraham.”(Glatians;3:6-7)
“If you were Abraham’s children, you would do what Abraham did.” (Jesus, John; 8:39).
The world is now a global village, God has created human with divergent views, while peacefully urging others to good and refraining form evil, people of different cultures and beliefs have to live like good neighbors: All major religions preach tolerance and care of humanity:

• Be tolerant; enjoin what is right; and avoid the ignorant (Quran 7:199)
• “…and you should forgive And overlook: Do you not like God to forgive you? And Allah is The Merciful Forgiving.”[Qur’an;24:22]
• “..be good to your parents, kinfolks, orphans, the helpless, near and far neighbors who keep company with you..” [Qur’an;4:36].
• “.. Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyselfs..”(Matthew 22:39-40, similarly Leviticus 19:18)
• “All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them. for this is the law and the prophets.[Matthew 7:12 similarly see Luke 6:31]
• “What is hateful to you, do not to your fellowmen. That is the entire Law; all the rest is commentary”: Talmud, Shabbat 31:a
• “You like for the people what you like for yourself, and you dislike for them what you dislike for yourself.”[Sayings of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)Al-Tirmidhi Hadith,11, 1334]
• “One should never do that to another which one regards as injurious to one’s own self. This, in brief, is the rule of dharma. Other behavior is due to selfish desires. [Brihaspati, Mahabharata (Anusasana Parva, Section CXIII, Verse 8)]
• “Never impose on others what you would not choose for yourself.” [Confucius, Analects XV.24]
• “What you do not want to happen to you, do not do it yourself either. ” [ Sextus the Pythagorean]
• Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful.[Udanavarga 5:18 Budhaism]
• “Whom should I despise, since the one Lord made us all [Var Sarang, Guru Granth Sahib, tr. Patwant Singh, —p.1237]
