Abul A'la Maududi Quotes

Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy any government made by man. Islam doesn't look for a nation to be in better condition than another nation.

Any nation or power in this world that tries to get in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy.

It is useless to think you change things by preaching alone.
