TAKING FAIH TO HEART: RECONCILIATION AND FRATERNAL LOVE IN ISLAMIC THOUGHT
Öz
We are living in a fractious world, where personal relations between the people are not always pleasant. There could be many insignificant, trivial conflicts between individuals, which if they were not resolved at some point, they may grow and may become serious problem not only for personal relations but for community. It is commonly thought greetings, smiling, shaking hands, embracing and kissing one another is the primary cure, or primary precaution for such social problems however, for hearts to truly reconcile and strengthen social bonds, those behaviors are needed but not enough. If such gestures do not spring from a deep-seated conviction that one's fellow being must be loved for the sake of God, then they remain at the level of external social politesse and cannot effect social reform at the deepest, grass-roots level. As Nursi said primary motive of individuals must come from the belief. 'Love for the sake of God, dislike for the sake of God, judgment for the sake of God" must be guiding principles for onces life.
