Islamic Methodology on Conflict Resolution

• The Islamic precepts are meant to maintain peaceful, healthy,


meaningful relationships with God and with all of humanity. This
relationship is disrupted by conflicts, whether interpersonal,
communal, national or international. Its restoration is essential
for the sake of fairness and justice. Peace-building efforts work
towards preventing an escalation of conflict and establishing a
durable and self-sustaining peace.
• Peace is intimately tied with justice in its Islamic understanding.
You cannot achieve one without the other. Legitimate grievances
of the affected party must be addressed, if real and essential
peace is to be achieved.

"O You who believe! Stand out firmly for God, as witnesses to fair
dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve
to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety:
and fear God. For God is well-acquainted with all you do" (Qur’an,
5:8).
