Thai is why a Muslim is not considered to be a perfect believer unless he
loves others. And love is expressed through the greeting of peace (, saldm).
Hence peace exists when there is compassion in people's hearts for each
other. This, in turn, will end every kind of injustice and will play vital role in
establishing a just social order. That implies peace without justice has no
meaning as the former is not merely absence of violence and existence of
calmness. In the same manner justice cannot be established until the
atmosphere is calm and serene. Hence, the administration of justice has
always been a religious duty in Islam which consists of the application of the
principles of shari'ah in the name of Allah.
Unfortunately enough, the non-Muslim mind, especially that of the
Orientalists, is ignorant, nay, but chooses to be ignorant about the universal
fact that Islam succeeded in materializing in history its principles while the
world witnessed the greatest ever commonwealth of which peace and justice
were the most brilliant hallmarks.
