Abstract

Muslim theologian and well-known Indian peace activist Wahiduddin Khan (1925–2021) had a significant impact on the development of peace ethics in Islam. In addition to writing several books and essays on peace and non-violence, he also took part in Indian political debates and engaged in global issues related to Islam and the Middle East. He is one of the most prolific Muslim thinkers on peace and non-violence, having crafted a systematic approach to peace in his eleven books on the subject. This article discusses his contributions to Islamic peace ethics along with an applied case of his non-violence principles to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Furthermore, this article critically examines the consistency, applicability, and effects of his theory of peace.
