Islamic Conflict Resolution Mechanisms: Relevance to the Palestine Conflict

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the Islamic concept of peace and conflict resolution as it is drawn from the Quran and Sunnah in order to evaluate its applicability to conflict resolution in the present era. The study examines important passages from the Quran and prophetic traditions that place a strong emphasis on justice, peacemaking, and reconciliation. The Charter of Medina and the Treaty of Hudaibiya are specifically examined as foundational frameworks for cohabitation and mediation, together with other historical forms of Islamic dispute resolution. This study used a qualitative approach to investigate the implications of peace and conflict resolution in addressing contemporary issues. By providing a faith-based road map for regional reconciliation and long-term stability, this study advances both scholarly discussion and practical policymaking. Justice-based diplomacy, third-party mediation, nonviolent resistance, interfaith communication, Ummah unity, and the resolution of internal issues are among the fundamental causes and aspects of the Islamic teachings-based suggestions regarding the Palestine issue.
