Dear swiss muslims You are the ambassador of islam in the Swiss land.Be tolerant and use dialogue and peaceful means to defend your cause.Swiss people are wise.They will listen to your mesage positively. Islam is the religion of peace: its meaning is peace; one of Allah’s Names is Peace; the daily greetings of Muslims and angels are peace; Paradise is the abode of peace, the adjective “Muslim” means Peaceful. Peace is the nature, the meaning, the emblem and the objective of Islam. Every being is entitled to enjoy the peace of Islam and the kindness of the peaceful Muslims, regardless of religious or geographical or racial considerations, so long as there is no aggression against Islam or the Muslims. If non-Muslims are peaceful with the Muslims or even indifferent to Islam, there can be no ground or justification to declare war on them. There is no such thing as religious war to force Islam on non-Muslims, because if Islam does not emerge from deep convictions, from within, it is not acceptable to Allah, nor can it help its professor. We have to emphasize that we human beings are all one family. Whites and Blacks, people of all races, colors and all nationalities are from one and the same parents. It is important to build good families and keep good family ties, but we must go beyond our own family and treat all people as one family. The tragic and evil acts of terrorism that happened on September 11, 2001 in New York and Washington have created a lot of fear and suspicion in our minds and in the minds of many of Americans and non muslims. For weeks and months people will be talking about this tragedy. For us Muslims, especially, there are many trials and challenges ahead. There are many things that we have to do. We have been here for many years, but for all these years we’ve remained very neglectful in making ourselves known to our neighbors and co-workers. We remained in isolation. Many people around us feel mysterious about us. They do not know us and do not know much about our religion and our values. If swiss bans the building of minaret ,your behaviour should be like it.Displaying good conducts will elevate u status and promote you.Moreover, through good traits u will gain the sympathy of many and attreact them them to know the true religion of islam. Justice requires that the wrong should be corrected with right means. Injustice cannot be removed by another injustice. Two wrongs do not make one right and ends do not justify the means. The ends must be right and the means must be right. Justice requires that you should not do to others what you do not like others to do to yourself. Or in a positive way one can say, “Love for others what you love others to do to you.” Or even better is what the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Love for your brother what you love for yourself.” Allah says in the Qur'an, "O you who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God, even if be against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for God can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest you swerve, and if you distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily God is well-acquainted with all that you do." (An-Nisa': 134)
