Conclusion

The Torah’s words of wisdom are completely in line with the verses of the Qur’an as well as the expressions in the Gospel that glorify love. What Almighty God clearly asks is for people to love Him, love each other and love His beautiful creations, for love is the foundation upon which God created and established this vast universe.

The fact that the majority of people have a tendency to fan the flames of hatred should never pose an obstacle to the believers on the path that leads to the triumph of love. Love is a great beauty that God wills; it is the purpose of life. Therefore, God always lends a helping hand to those who uphold love above all else. So long as such a person has a genuine love of God and shares it with others, he remains a positive influence over the masses. the beautiful sensation of love he feels helps mend his soul and safeguards him against any distress or unease that might befall him. His soul is content with love. the energy and vivacity emanating from his loving soul invigorates his face and every single cell in his body, while banishing the feelings of darkness, fear and dismay that plague his spirit. for the person who has firmly established in his heart the love of God, it is always possible to live a peaceful, happy life and tackle any problem through the vigorous mind that comes his way.

One should never let spiteful people draw them into their downward spiral of hatred, as love is not an arduous emotion; God created the soul and body of man to be in tune with love. Always thinking favorably of God, being able to realize that incidents unfolding in one’s life are each a part of the trial of the life of this world and having complete faith in God’s love and protection will lead to a life of ease. Then, and only then, will he better understand that it is actually hatred which is arduous and realize what a torment it is to live in a state of mind that is not only spiritually but physically painful. It should also be remembered that God grants a wonderful life, both in this world and in the Hereafter, to those who uphold and spread love, for this is what those people pray for by asking their Lord for love. God surely answers the prayers.

We are obliged to firmly establish in our souls the love of God but this alone is not enough: It is also a crucial form of worship to be able to call others to this beauty. People need to be educated so that the terror, destruction, tyranny and war brought about by hatred will cease. If false beliefs are eliminated and replaced by the correct ones, then the calamities bred by false beliefs will likewise be eradicated. People should be told about the fact that their existence in this world is not an aimless one, and that they did not come into being by coincidence. They should be made aware that everyone is created by God for a purpose.

Thus, people should bear in mind that they are fully responsible for their lives, their experiences, their thoughts and deeds and break free of the notion that a “human life is as insignificant as that of an insect’s”, an idea which has been propagated by certain circles. They should know that they are not finite but infinite beings, and that they will not simply perish when they die, as this world is not the one and only stop in the journey of their existence. They should recognize the fact that mankind will flourish not in belligerence, tyranny or hostility, but only in love, compassion and altruism. Every ideology that glosses over war is a colossal deceit. Only through adhering to the purpose of its creation - that is, love - can mankind enjoy a happy life. If people wish to thrive, flourish and find happiness, they should uphold love above all else and genuinely implement this beautiful moral value that God glorifies in the Qur’an, the Torah and the Gospel throughout their lives.

Almighty God informs us about this fact in a verse of the Qur’an as follows:

As for those who have faith and do right actions, the All-Merciful (God) will bestow His love on them. (Qur'an, 19:96)

ADNAN OKTAR: There are beautiful commandments of God in the Gospel, and the Qur'an reveals that the Gospel is "containing guidance and light." That is the same as the Torah. (1 Peter, 2:15-17: for it is God’s will that by doing good, you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people... Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God...) (21 March 2017, A9 TV)

There are references to the Torah and the Gospel in the Qur'an, but some Muslims do not want to acknowledge this. However, if they were to read the Gospel and the Torah, they would have a wider horizon. (29 December 2016, A9 TV)

 

They said "Glory be to You!
We have no knowledge except what You have taught us.
You are the All-Knowing, the All-Wise."
(Qur'an, 2: 32)
