İslam, Life and Terror

An increased interest towards Islam is present in the world public opinion. Efforts have been paid off to understand Islam; inter-national and national meetings are organized, printed publications and television programs have been carried out in all areas.Despite these positive information and cultural work, I regret to inform you that in the *Western World* and in some other countries the Islamic opposition - Islamophobia is still continuing.This antagonistic behaviour and initiatives, originated from the ignorance and fanaticism, targets Muslims and their sacred, mosques, and places of worship and as a result; attacks, violence and destruction is presently ongoing.For this, to show the reality of peaceful attitude of Islam, I was invited in different parts of the World and organizations; Tokyo, Moscow, Berlin, Rotterdam, Granada, Bonn, Nicosia, London and United Nations, in order to submit papers and answer to the asked questions.With praise to Allah (c.c.) for letting me to see the translated version of *Islam and Life* in German, Albanian, Italian, Russian and now in English, I pray for all of us for a continuous mercy and forgiveness. - Prof. Dr.
