the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in order to establish global
peace and to end terrorism and tyranny from the world. The
Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) message of peace, love,
justice and religious tolerance will always be a leading light

• According to Arabic literature, the word ‘Fitrat’ is on the same scale as


‘Khilqat’, both signifying the same meaning.

• Inherent nature of a thing or person

• It is that innate part of man’s consciousness that is aroused involuntarily


without any training and instruction.

• This awareness is an inseparable and indestructible part of man’s existence.


It has been ingrained in him throughout the ages, without exception.

• This consciousness is referred to as ‘Fitrat’. The biggest evidence of the


intrinsic nature of this ‘Fitrat’ is the fact that it is found in all humans.
91

• If man is a social animal then teaches how to live together

• it advocates the best of human values, such as :

tolerance, love, mercy, truthfulness and sincerity.

So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to


truth. [Adhere to] the fitrah of Allah upon which He
has created [all] people. No change should there be
in the creation of Allah . That is the correct religion,
but most of the people do not know. Ar-rum

• Islam educates good manners and virtue.

• Its call is distinguished from others by its realism, balance and moderation.

• Islam pays due attention to both the soul and the body.

• People embrace Islam because they find security, comfort and peace in it,
they see a cure for their problems in it, and through it they are able to get rid
of their feelings of confusion, anxiety and loss.
• “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
said: ‘There is no child who is not born in a state of fitrah (i.e., Islam), then his
parents make him into a Jew, a Christian or a Magian (Zoroastrian), just as
animals produce whole animals (i.e., the animals are born perfect with no
part of their bodies missing). Do you find any born with their ears cut off?’”

And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and
mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand,
they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have
ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock;
rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless.

It is Allah who erected the heavens without pillars that you


[can] see; then He established Himself above the Throne and
made subject the sun and the moon, each running [its course]
for a specified term. He arranges [each] matter; He details the
signs that you may, of the meeting with your Lord, be
certain.Ar-raad
