Lord Wajid said in his tweet that he was absolutely honoured to showcase the amazing book alongside MP Naz Shah and distribute it among the MPs and Lords.
The book underlines the balance and moderation, emphasizing compassion and reconciliation in the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), who exhibited immense patience, compassion and gentleness while dealing with others.
It reveals that unlike the picture presented by some elements in the West, the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) would tolerate and overlook the flaws of others, show kindness especially to the weak, women and children, persuade his followers to be benevolent towards women, orphans, children, elderly and prisoners.
