Zakir Naik – According to All Religions Promote Peace

that if you read the books of Judaism,

the books of Christianity, you will find verses

of peace.

Never in my lecture ever did I say

that any religion is against peace or any

religion is in favor of terrorism.

I always said all religions are against terrorism.

What I made one statement in my speech

that the verse of the Quran chapter 5

verse number 32, this verse which is so

emphatic, I do not find a similar verse

in any other scripture because I'm a student

of comparative religion saying that if you kill

one innocent human being, it is as though

you have killed the whole of humanity and

if you save one innocent human being, it

is as though you have saved the whole

of humanity.

It was only one verse.

Generally, I do agree that most of the

religions, almost all, they speak about peace.

That's the reason Jesus Christ peace be upon

him.

If you read the gospel of Luke chapter

number 24 verse number 36, when he goes

to the upper room, he says, when he

wishes apostles, shalom alaikum, which means same, peace

be upon you in Hebrew.

So the greetings of Jesus Christ peace be

upon him too when he met the people

was shalom alaikum, which meant same in Arabic

assalamu alaikum, may peace be on you.
