The Essential Message of Islam: Consult Quran on Repelling evil with good, Social Responsibility, Interfaith Relations, Religious Tolerance, Justice and Fair play

Mohammed Yunus, NewAgeIslam.com


Given the skepticism against some aspects of the Qur’anic message highlighted by this writer, I would like to substantiate the claims by drawing on a duly authenticated recent Qur’anic exegetic work that is endorsed by al-Azhar al-Sharif.

It takes a few words to criticize and question the integrity of a discourse but may require yet another and perhaps bigger discourse to defend it against the criticism. For a Muslim, the matter of 'defense' becomes immensely important if the discourse focuses on the message of the Qur'an. I have therefore been prompted to post the following detailed rejoinder to the article published in New Age Islam earlier. It is a little longish, but given the urgency to highlight the egalitarian and universal dimension of its message, I hope, New Age Islam readers will appreciate the need for it. – Mohammed Yunus, Author of The Essential Message of Islam for New Age Islam.com
