Islam promotes justice, compassion, and peaceful coexistence with non-Muslims, emphasizing respect for their rights and dignity.
The Quran instructs Muslims to engage with others in a manner that is fair and respectful. Allah, the Almighty, says : "Allah does not forbid you from being kind and just to those who did not fight against you nor did they drive you out of your homes. Indeed, Allah loves those who are just." (Quran 60:8)
The Quran also upholds the principle of no compulsion in religion, ensuring freedom of belief for all individuals. Allah, the Almighty, says: "There is no compulsion in religion ; the truth has been made distinct from falsehood." (Quran 2:256)
Non-Muslims living in Muslim societies are guaranteed the protection of their lives, property, and honor, with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) setting an example by honoring treaties and extending kindness to all.
Islam calls for dialogue and mutual respect, promoting harmony while emphasizing that differences in belief should not lead to injustice or oppression. This framework underscores Islam’s commitment to building bridges of understanding and compassion with people of all faiths.
