A lecture delivered at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre (London) by Hadrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih IV^th, the Head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Based on

Quranic teachings, the Speaker argues that:

• Swords can win territories but not hearts, force can bend heads but not minds;
• The role of women is not of concubines in harems nor a society imprisoned in the four walls of their homes;
• Richer nations provide aid with strings attached and yet the flow of wealth continues to be in the direction of the rich while the poorer sink deeper in the red;
• Religion does not need to be the predominant legislative authority in the political affairs of a state;
• Irrespective of the thawing of the Cold War, the issue of war and peace does not only hang by the thread of superpower relationship;
• Without God there can be no peace.

It also contains comprehensive discussion on interest; financial aid international relations; and the role of Israel, America and the United Kingdom in a new world order.

Its message is timeless and relates to the future prospects for peace. It is a compulsory read for non-Muslims as well as for those Muslims who have forgotten the true message of Islam.
