Close study of Islamic religious, intellectual and spiritual traditions demonstrates that Peace and Islam are conceptually joined, and may be implemented in practice. Islam offers a path to strive for peace, justice and reconciliation in the world by which we may also strive for eternal peace and security in the presence of our Creator. Muslims may uncover, renovate and innovate peace-making practices that realistically embody Islamic ideals people commonly acknowledge yet too frequently ignore in their actual conduct of life. Our ‘Peace-Security & Islam Programme’ seeks the integration of theory and practice, aiming at more adequate applications of Islamic values for human wellbeing and security.
