I am portrayed as a dangerous individual who can be fought thanks to their ideas.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
Very often when I see people who are perceived to be, or who call themselves progressives, sometimes I see an imbalance. Yes I understand the courage in their mind but I don't see the spirituality in their heart, good you are questioning the limits, but what about yourself, are you also liberating yourself?
Tariq Ramadan
Image
The Turkish road is not my model because I am critical of the way you are dealing with freedom of expression, of how you are dealing with the treatment of minorities, and your economic vision.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
IS [Islamic State] has played a major role in helping Bashar al-Assad to reposition Syria on the international scene. Now, it is almost impossible to come up with a solution that would exclude him. The political game appears to be very cynical indeed.

Image
What I'm advocating is an intellectual revolution - it's a different mindset concerning the ethical benchmarks by which we live.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
When you're overwhelmed by your emotion, you listen less and you judge more. This is also the reality of the dogmatic mind.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
Always walking along despite the dangers and adversities, despite the injustices and horrors, trusting in God so as not to despair of men and events.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
I wrote a call to the contemporary Muslim conscience, saying to the ordinary people that we might not like the video or the cartoons, but that violence certainly isn't the right answer. I don't think laws are going to solve the problem.

If you are not at peace with yourself then you cannot spread peace.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
This simple truth is the essence of my message to Muslims throughout the world: know who you are, who you want to be, and start talking and working with whom you are not. Find common values and build with fellow citizens a society based on diversity and equality.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
I want the American Muslims to tell the leaders what they are telling me all the time. I want this internal debate to happen and the Muslims cannot just criticize the leadership without being involved. At the end of the day, you have the leadership you deserve.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
I think that political parties are fuelling this fear in order to create divisions. The more we bring up fear, the more we neglect real political issues. Political debate in France is crumbling since every single issue is brought to Islam now.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
We should not treat people as they treat us, we should treat them better.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
The diversity is the risk of war, the necessity of diversity is mutual respect
Tariq Ramadan
Image
In my book Radical Reform I made it clear that we cannot talk about the environment or ecology if we don't also deal with the economy. There is a direct link between how we deal with the economy and how we deal with nature.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
The problem is that the constitution should have been and was an opportunity, exactly as Moncef Marzouki tried to do, to bring together the secularists and Islamists.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
There is dignity in your being even if there's indignity in what you're doing.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
The media is putting a lot of emphasis on the few people that are destroying, while it won't report on the silent majority of people who are constructing, building and trying to find their way.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
Ramadan is, in its essence, a month of humanist spirituality.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
The problem with Salafis is that they are religiously sincere and politically naïve. And they allow themselves to be supported by people who have no religious sincerity but who are politically very smart, especially when it comes to their economic interests.
