Understanding the Abrahamic Ethic
The Abrahamic ethic embodies the fullest and most balanced individual and social institutional expression of these two commandments whose core ideas are:
- A radical monotheism, expressed in loving the one God with all of one's being
- Human liberty, equality, and fraternity, expressed in loving for others what we love for ourselves (that is, social justice) and in ensuring and protecting these principles
Whenever each religious tradition, Muslim or non-Muslim, has honored these commandments, it has contributed to humanity's growth and progress. When one has failed, it has contributed to conflict and disease both within its own society and between its society and that of others.
