Peace – Essential Message of Islam by Minhaj India Women League

Minhaj India Women League orchestrated spiritual gatherings to commemorate the birth anniversary of Muhammad. These programs took place on January 19 across six venues in Kolkata – Central Kolkata, Alimuddin Street, Topisa, Howrah (Shipur), Howrah (Pilkhana), and Hoogly. The gatherings witnessed a significant turnout of women, each engaged in discussions led by speakers. Delving into the life and teachings of Muhammad, the speakers underscored that acts of terrorism contradict the essence of Islamic teachings and stand in opposition to Muhammad's directives. They advocated for peace and harmony as the message of Islam, urging for its steadfast reinforcement to reject all forms of terrorism and militancy.[5]
