ISLAMIC UNITY CHARTER

ALLAH'S HOUSE -THE
SYMBOL OF ISLAMIC UNITY |
IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE GRACIOUS, THE MERCIFUL
"And hold fast by the covenant of Allah all together and be not
disunited, and remember the favour of Allah on you when you were
enemies, then He united your hearts so by His favour you became
brothers; and you were on the brink of a pit of fire, then He saved
you from it; thus does Allah make clear to you His communications
that you may follow the right way." (Al-Qur'an 3:103).
We believe in
the oneness of the Creator, our Lord, Allah, the Glorifies, the Most
High, and in the message of His final prophet Muhammad, may the
peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. Our Lord commands us to
unity through the final revelation, the Holy Qur'an, and through the
example of His final messenger, the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
Unfortunately, today the scourges of disunity and sectarianism are
tearing the Ummah apart. For too long, the enemies of Islam and
Muslims have been allowed to sow the seeds of hatred between Muslim
brothers and sisters, resulting in bloodshed and destruction.
The time has
come for Muslims to stand against such cruelty and injustice,
falsely committed in the name of Islam. Accordingly, we call upon
Muslims to: --Denounce all forms of disunity, including racism,
nationalism, and sectarianism, committed by individuals,
organizations and governments around the world.
Unite in and
stand against all attempts that seek to divide the Ummah, in
accordance with Ayah 3:103 of the Qur'an and the authentic
traditions of the Prophet Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of
Allah be upon him. --Let commit ourselves to the promotion of good
relations between all Muslims, based on Islamic etiquette (adab).
We make this
statement to take an Islamic stance of unity against all divisive
policies and actions.
