“And who is better in speech than the one who calls to Allah, does righteousness and says I am from the Muslims.” (Surat Fussilat v. 33)
Speech that is backed by conduct and fueled by identity is a powerful mechanism of positive change in a world that is hurting everywhere.
Muslims should not just be present in fighting injustice but leading the way. Our challenge of injustice comes from a constant imperative in the Quran and sunnah and is nourished and sustained by Islamic tazkiyah principles.
