THE LOVE AND PEACE- ISRAEL PALESTENIANS WAR

Peace is the outcomes of love. When peoples love each other, there will be peace between them. Love is the outcomes of positive attitudes towards others. When a person has positive attitudes towards other peoples, they will have love between them. Because they have love between them, they have peace. When people have negative attitude towards other people they will have hatred between them. Because they have hatred, they have war between them. All wars begin with negative mental outlook. Negative mental outlook leads to hatred and hatred leads to war. In order to stop war we have to begin with the work of changing the people negative mental outlook to a positive mental outlook. Negative mental outlook is the result of wrong belief. The wars between Israel and Palestinians have gone for more than six decades because of negative mental outlook. Many peace plans were proposed but none of them seems to work. The entire peace plan is working towards the establishment of Israel and Palestinians as separate nations. I think the Jews believe that there should be only Israel and Palestinians live as a citizen of Israel. On the other hands, the Palestinians believe that they should have a separate nation of their own. Wars continue for decades and many dies because of the war.

Both the Jews and Palestinians believe and mental outlook have to be changed. They should believe that all of them are descendent of the same ancestors and that they have the same God. Both Jews and the Muslims believe in one God and both believe that Moses is the Prophets of God. At least on this basis the Jews and the Muslims should be able to love each other and to live cordially between them. The Muslims should regard the Jews as their brothers and sisters who has different believe and not as their enemies. Similarly, the Jews should regard the Muslims as their brothers and sisters who have embraced Islam and not as their enemies. It is unreasonable that we should hates those who have different believe or views from us. We are all different and we are free to chose our own believe. No one can forced us to believe on anything and every one of us is responsible on whatever we believe .It is unreasonable for a Muslims to hates someone because he or she is a Jews and similarly it is unreasonable for a Jews to hates someone because he or she is an Arabs or Muslims. In my opinion, the Israel and Palestinians war that has gone on for more than six decades are not because they are Jews and Muslims but because of their greed for power and wealth that both Jews and Muslims have. Greed for power and wealth are the causes of the war between Israel and Palestine that has lasted this long.

In order to stop the war both sides have to sacrifice their greed. Both the Palestinians and the Jews have to reduce their greed over lands and power to a level acceptable to both of them. When they can reduce their greed over wealth and power then only they can sit down in the same tables to outlines the terms of the peace treaty. When neither the Jews nor the Palestinians are able to reduce their greed then peace is not achievable. In case, the Jews cannot reduce their greed than the Muslims should be able to reduce their greed. As a Muslims, the Palestinians should want peace more than the Jews do. Islam means peace and the Muslims Palestinians should be able to even sacrifice their greed completely in order to achieved peace.

To have peace are more valuable than to have lands without peace. What is the values of lands when compare with the values of being able to live in peace and to practice the orders of Allah. In my opinion, Muslims Palestinians should choose to live with the Jews as brothers and sisters and mingle with them with respect and love. As a Muslims, the Palestinians should love and mingle with the Jews and convey to the Jews the Great Kalimah that Allah has given to the Muslims. We are born Jews and Arabs so that we can know each other. None of us has the choice to be either Jews or Arabs. Allah orders us to live in peace with the Jews although the Jews do not believe in Muhammad s.a.w as Prophets of Allah. Our work as a Muslims is only to convey the Great Kalimah to them and there is no compulsion in religion. As a Muslims, we can only convey the Great Kalimah to the Jews when we can live in peace with them. Without peace, the work of conveying the Great Kalimah to the Jews will not be possible.

Muslims Palestinians should want peace more than the Jews do. With peace, the Muslim can convey the Great Kalimah to the Jews with love and respect and without compulsion. When the Muslims do the work of conveying the Great Kalimah to the Jews their iman will increase, their greed will reduced and they will start to looks towards the Jews with love and sympathy. Both Muslims and the Jews should stop talking over past events that had taken place between the Jews and the Muslims. We have to forget the past, we have to forgive each other, and we have to start a new dimension based on mutual respect and love.

  1. Dr Nasoha,

    Thank-you for your article. It was well said. Both sides have to humble themselves and be willing to give in and re-start a fresh. Holding on to the past only brings much pain. We must be willing to un-clench our fists' and extend a hand.

    Warmest Regards,

    In Yeshua's Name
