The Glorious Qur’an says:
“…take not life, which God hath made sacred, except by way of justice and law: thus doth He command you, that ye may learn wisdom.” [Al-Qur’an 6:151]

Islam considers all life forms as sacred. However, the sanctity of human life is accorded a special place. The first and the foremost basic right of a human being is the right to live. The Glorious Qur’an says:
“Whosever kills a human being (unless it be for retaliation or for causing corruption in the earth), it shall be as if he had murdered all mankind: and whosever saves the life of one, it shall be as if he saved the life of all mankind.” [Qur’an 5:32]

Such is the value of a single human life, that the Qur’an equates the taking of even one human life unjustly, with killing all of humanity. Thus, the Qur’an prohibits homicide in clear terms. The taking of a criminal’s life by the state in order to administer justice is required to uphold the rule of law, and the peace and security of the society. Only a proper and competent court can decide whether an individual has forfeited his right to life by disregarding the right to life and peace of other human beings.

Killing oneself (committing suicide) is forbidden in the Qur’an. Some people who are ill-informed on Islam have made utterly erroneous statement to the effect that this religion condones suicide attacks, whereas in Islam, killing oneself and other people are both prohibited. The Qur’an clearly states, “Do not kill yourselves.” (Qur’an, 4:29). God has declared suicide to be a sin. In Islam, it is forbidden for anyone to kill him/herself, no matter what reason.

Islam is a religion which speads peace, respect, tolerance and justice. Muslims may differ in their beliefs from other fellow humans, but this does not mean they would disrespect them and treat them with injustice. Muslims are encouraged to interact with other people from different faiths, exchange with them many positive things, and get to know them. The life, honour and property of all citizens in a Muslim society are considered sacred, whether the person is Muslim or not. Racism and sexism are incomprehensible to Muslims. I would like to point out a verse in the Qur’an that speaks of human equality: “O Mankind! We created you from a single soul, male and female, and made you into peoples and tribes, so that you may come to know one another (not despise each other). Truly, the most honoured of you in God’s sight is the greatest of you in piety. God is All-Knowing, All-Aware.” (Qur’an 49:13)

- Terrorism is what brings terror to innocent people. This is a violation of the laws and principles of the laws and principles of Islam. This includes any illegitimate action or violence meant to cause disorder and to threaten the necessities of life.
- As Muslims and human beings, we are obliged to show to the world that Islam honours human life. Islam categorically says NO to terrorism, guns in the hands of children, uncontrolled access to guns, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons. Islam says NO to sanctions where innocent people, especially children, pay the price.
- Injustice, bigotry, treachery, tyranny, and persecution are wrong. Enmity, ignorance and disrespect are wrong. The right things humans should do and focus more on for their prosperity are peace, justice, respect, honesty and tolerance.
- Conclude by showing online petition, which seeks to disassociate Islam from terrorism.
