More quotes by Tariq Ramadan
Now no one can deny the fact that whatever is the state of the affairs in the country, you did not have the army controlling the country and you have a pluralistic society anyway.
Tariq Ramadan
The best measure of a successful life is the way we turn away, we renounce, and even by the way we depart it.
Tariq Ramadan
Globalisation means indeed everything is global but there are still very specific centres of power, especially when it comes to media and news.Misinformation about some attacks is going to affect how emotionally involved the audience is going to get. In the end, an emotional ranking is artificially created when it comes to casualties.
Tariq Ramadan
We must master our egoism, and through this mastery, step outside ourselves and educate ourselves in giving. Fasting requires that we rediscover all that is alive around us, and reconcile ourselves with our environment.
Tariq Ramadan
Every country in Europe needs immigrants for its economic survival.
Tariq Ramadan
We cannot have a free market since it does not really set us free. It's free for interest, speculation and consumerism to create false needs.
Tariq Ramadan
There is no faith, without a critical mind
Tariq Ramadan
Cultures are never merely intellectual constructs. They take form through the collective intelligence and memory, through a commonly held psychology and emotions, through spiritual and artistic communion.
Tariq Ramadan
If we had not created a set of people against another the world would have been corrupt, and against here means two things: Against in the fact that they are challenging you with their diversity, challenging your intelligence and to challenge is not negative, it can be very positive depending on how you are challenged.
Tariq Ramadan
Teach the heart not to give way to proud emotions and arrogant thinking bring the mind to heart-soothing solutions that make it possible to control oneself gently and wisely.
Tariq Ramadan
If there is a smoke, there is a fire, the saying goes, That is quite true, but one should find what the fire is, and who lit it.
Tariq Ramadan
Man is certainly free, but he is responsible for this freedom before God as before men. This responsibility is inevitably moral. In order of this morality, to be free is to protect the freedom of others and their dignities.
Tariq Ramadan
Nature is telling us that if you don't respect the environment then you are living with artificial needs and a consumerism that is destroying the very conditions we need to survive.
Tariq Ramadan
We want to tell people how great Islam is yet we are not great Muslims.
Tariq Ramadan
There is nothing more Islamic than critical thinking.
Tariq Ramadan
Islam came to teach us that there is no faith without intelligence and here we are: destroying our intelligence in the name of faith.
Tariq Ramadan
The more I know, the best I believe. The more I know, the best I'm worshiping Him. Because, in the end Allah knows the best.
Tariq Ramadan
I am saying the same to Muslims in the global South, telling them: Just ignore what is done. However, in the Southern countries they are not living in a comfortable society like you and me. They deal with unemployment, corruption, and surviving. For the majority of them, their religion is helping them survive.
Tariq Ramadan
The universality of Islam is not uniformity, it is unity with diversity.
Tariq Ramadan
Emancipation can only come from within it cannot be dictated by someone else. A law banning the wearing of headscarves changes nothing, except perhaps external appearance. Naturally, Islamic feminism must also include the right to education, to work and the freedom to select one's own husband.
