We have all inherited from the wise Abraham who is the father of monotheists; and all divine religions and faiths lead to him. Any conflict and hatred among the followers of these Abrahamic religions, will incur the displeasure of this great monotheist teacher. The roots of conflicts among those members of the divine doctrines are the villainous and malevolent deeds of the autocrats and dictators who are devoid of all logic, convictions, sagacity and legitimacy. Indeed, how could there be a conflict between the converts and the source when all goals are divine and sacred?
When we know that the Prophet Abraham is the
father of Issac and Ismail and Issac is the inheritor of Judaism and Ismail is
the father of the Arabs, and that Judaism and Christianity are the children of
Israel, we must therefore conclude that Arabs and Israelis are in fact cousins.
How can bloodshed and animosity then be acceptable? Is the Arab-Israeli
conflict in keeping with the substance of the revelation? How can respect and
affinity not be observed?
I seek peace and honesty among those followers
of the religions that inspire compassion and which bring human beings closer to
their Gods. Let us all come together to live and worship, and turn the world
into a beautiful and revitalizing place. History will never forget the Crusades
whose evil plans, where those Abrahamic followers came to blows against each
other and who compromised their dignity and vitality. We who acknowledged the
brotherhood and unity with the Bani-Omayeds and Bani-Abbassids who slaughtered
the Shia Imams, how can we be in vicious and murderous conflict with the
children of Abraham?!
I wish for the freedom and independence
of all pure and harmonious thoughts and for liberating the world from all
contemptuous and tyrannical conflicts.
