More quotes by Tariq Ramadan
There is something which is going to be one of the main challenges in the Muslim world today, in the Muslim-majority countries in the Arab world, is the religious credibility. How are you going to react to what is said about Islam? So, by touching the prophet of Islam, the reaction should be, who is going to be the guardian?
Tariq Ramadan
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
The logic of freedom of religion implies freedom to be an atheist, even though, from a historical perspective, this has not been accepted in the Muslim world.
Tariq Ramadan
The suicide bomber who blows up Israeli children cannot transform himself into a martyr. The Palestinian problem is not an Islamic problem.
Tariq Ramadan
Prayer is better than to sleep. Wake up. Wake up & pray. This is the way you free yourself.
Tariq Ramadan
We are in a world that is connected, but is not communicating.
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
Many times I have asked Muslim women not to nurture the victim mentality. stand up for your rights
Tariq Ramadan
I don't think we should take the emotional reactions of a few people as more representative than those of the millions of people who took to the street in a non-violent way against dictators.
Tariq Ramadan
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
The 21st century - and the atheists - needs the presence of religion, just as religion must deal with the real challenges and the thinkers of the day in order to sharpen the conscience and the intelligence of those who study the timeless sacred texts in a spirit of responding to the questions of their time.
Tariq Ramadan
No one can deny that some Islamist groups have credential and popularity. But that does not mean they are a majority. If we are serious about democracy we cannot blame the people for choosing what they want. We must promote the kinds of procedures and processes that are helping the people move ahead.
Tariq Ramadan
When Manuel Valls says there's nothing to understand because understanding is justifying, he echoes back to Georges W Bush's logic in 2001. When François Hollande says they are attacking us because of who we are, what does it say about victims in Mali, Baghdad, Ivory Coast or Turkey?
Tariq Ramadan
Do not respond to attacks with attacks. Respond with Mercy & Respect
Tariq Ramadan
One does not always know how to express the sorrow of the soul. One does not always know how to silence the joy of the heart.
Tariq Ramadan
The message of Islam asks you to be intellectually, spiritually, socially, and politically independent
Tariq Ramadan
Violence against embassies and civilians must be categorically condemned. At the same time, we must attempt to understand why such events occur.
Tariq Ramadan
Never forget your dialogue with God, it is your strength.
Tariq Ramadan
What I'm advocating is an intellectual revolution - it's a different mindset concerning the ethical benchmarks by which we live.
Tariq Ramadan
If you want to have a good life, never forget that you are going to die
