The Quran says of the Prophet of Islam: We have only sent you as a mercy to all humanity. (The Quran, 21:107) The advent of the Prophet of Islam made God’s mercy for all humanity manifest. God communicated those life principles through him by choosing which man may inhabit the abode of eternal peace and security (Dar as-salaam). (The Quran, 10:25) Through him, such teachings were revealed as could turn human society into a peaceful society. The Prophet of Islam presented a complete ideology based on the concept of peace. He gave us the formula for a peaceful life — to shun hatred and violence.
