I
hope the time is not far off when I shall be able
to unite all the wise and educated men of all the
contires and establish a uniform regime based on the
priniciples of the Qur-an which alone are true
and which alone can lead men to happniess.

I have
always held the religion of Prophet Muhammad
in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality.
It is the only religion which appears to me to posess
that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of
existence which can make itself appeal to every age.

Our
use of phrase "The Dark Ages" to cover
the period from 699 to 1000 marks our undue concentration
on Western Europe...
From India to Spain, the brilliant civilisation
of Islam flourished. What was lost to Christendon
at this was not lost to civilisation, but quit the
conterary...
To us
it seems that West--European civilisation is civilisation,
but this is a narrow view.

The
Islamic teachings have left great traditions for equitable
and gentle dealings and behaviour, and inspire people
with nobility and tolerance...
Islam is replete with gentleness, courtesy,
and fraternity.
