Peace and Conflict Resolution in Islam: Islamic Perspectives on War, Peace and Conflict Resolution argues the case for Islam as the prescription for constructing and maintaining a society of peace, tolerance, compassion, justice, and equality at every level of humanity.

The book draws exhaustively from the Quran, hadith, and other field-related sources and investigates and analyzes historical events from the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and the early caliphate of Islam.

The author concludes that in its essence Islam is a religion of balance and peace, and as such it should be viewed not as something distant or foreign but as a modern catalyst for conflict resolution, peacemaking, and peacebuilding in the global arena. Some of the topics covered include the following:
  • Historical truths and misconceptions about Islam and Muslims.
  • Concepts of war and peace in Islam.
  • Ethics of war and peace.
  • Islam and Just War Theory.
  • The question of nonviolence.
  • Human nature and inter-personal conflict.
  • Prophet Muhammad as a peacemaker.
  • Muslim women as champions of peace.
  • Practical peacemaking and conflict resolution.
