Addressing a seminar on Sufism organised by Pakistan Sufi Council in collaboration with the National Institute of Historical and Cultural Research in Islamabad, Pakistan Muslim League Secretary General Mushahid Hussain Syed said there are no boundaries for love and learning that provide a path towards peace and harmony in the world.
Mushahid said key to change is what is in one's heart for other human beings because "without purifying ourselves we cannot come up as a good human being."
Arrogance is the core of all evils and one of the basic reasons for war and confrontation across the world, Mushahid said, adding that concerted efforts are needed to promote justice and generosity globally. Mushahid said there are 800 million Muslims in South Asia and message of Islam was spread in this region by saints who came here from other regions.
He said there are also a large number of non-Muslim followers of Khwaja Ajmair Sharif who contributed a lot to promote love and harmony in the region.
Shaikh Abdullah Nooruddin Durkee, an eminent US-based scholar, said peace, justice, mercy, love and freedom form the basis a peaceful society where everyone can live in harmony.
He said lack of justice in unipolar world led to confrontation and disappointment; so such actions are needed that are helpful and beneficial to all human beings.
Love is "a free gift" of God and it must be promoted at every level that can also enhance inter-faith harmony all over the world, he said.
He said, "There is no peace without justice; and there is no justice without mercy; and there is no mercy without love."
Noora Durkee, wife of Shaikh Nooruddin Durkee, said every one is equal in the eyes of God, so every one has equal rights and status. She said all efforts should aim at spreading message of love for the overall benefit of the mankind.
Others who spoke on the occasion included Amar Rashid, Dr. Riaz Ahmad and Dr. Ghazanfar Mehdi.
They said Sufis saints who arrived in this region greatly influenced the minds of the people and spread the message of Islam in every nook and corner.
