The Concept of brotherhood in Islam _ Islamic Course


It is often stated that “Religions are the cause of many of today’s problem all vying against each other to proclaim they are the only universal religion for mankind. They do not bring about peace and unity but hate and disunity!”

Many of today’s problems derive from the fact that the world in which we live is rapidly becoming one world. With modern technology, communication and transport, mankind is no longer isolated from each other; instead mankind out of necessity must learn to live close together in intimate contact with each other. In other words, they must become a true brotherhood. This requires many adjustments.
First of all mankind needs some sort of rules of conduct to help them interact with each other. Since all mankind desires peace, then the only real way to achieve that is through religion. Religion is not the cause of many of today’s problems; it is the misuse of religion.
What is Religion?
Religion is a divine system of beliefs, acts of worship, and rules of conduct to enable human beings to achieve nearness to Allah and to lead a peaceful life.
