TO THE MUSLIMS ... 1

 TO THE MUSLIMS ... 1

1) Give up the notion that your Deen is the best and needs to replace all other civilisations. This is based on a medieval Arab tribal attitude which goes by the way of divine commandment. Obviously, it cannot suit modern requirements and must be rejected. Time to do it. Do it now and modernise your mindset.

2) Study Hinduism. Read Swami Vivekananda, the Bhagavad Gīta and the Upanishads. It will expand your horizons and make you more suited to harmonious coexistence with people of other faiths. 

3) Do not be violent in your ways and means towards the kafir but understand, despite your scriptural injunctions to the contrary, that they are your flesh and blood, not your brethren as such but your very selves. This is the Vedāntic view.

4) Do not convert any to your faith but rather read your own scriptures and find out why I ask you not to proselytise as the Deen dictates.
