What the Muslim Warriors must do if enemy would incline towards peace?
The purpose of war is not to kill, but to attain lasting peace and justice according to Ust, Mursid Ibraim author of Jihad Fi Sabilillah. So, therefore the ayat below advices Mujahideen to incline toward peace.
"But if they incline toward peace, you also incline to it, and (put your) trust in Allah, verily He is the All-Hearer, the All-knower. (Quran 8:61)
The MNLF and GRP agreed to pursue the 1996 Final Peace Agreement unfinished business. According to some Muslim professionals this agreement is another government trap and betrayal.
As long as MNLF and GRP singed the peace agreement both of them are mandated to comply the agreement. And the peace pact they signed is their accountability before Moro, Filipino and above all God. If one of them will violate the agreement the Quran injuction is very clear.
"But if they violate their oaths arter their covenant, and attact your religion with disapproval and criticism then fight (you) the leaders of the disbelief (chief of Quraish Pagans of Makkah) and intended to expel the Messenger, while they did attack you first?" (Quran 10:12-13
At this point Ust. Mushid I. Ibrahim, Secretary General of MNLF Central Committee, reminded the Mujahideen to be battle-ready.
"They should always be battle-ready and united, so that the sinister scheme of the enemy to destroy the Mujahideen will drive in vain".
Well, the prayer of our people still the lofty goal of Islam, is the divine universal peace for mankind, to be particular peace in Mindanao.
