What has preceded are only some examples from Arnold’s book and there are hundreds more that could be extracted from other non-Muslim sources.

The intent behind them is to show that the pillars, commands and prohibitions of Islām and its morality and ethics have been shown to nurture human character to a level of perfection that is—even if unwillingly—recognised by enemies and foes, even in the midst of conflict and war, and whose factual realities, even the most bigoted and hateful cannot dismiss.

It is from this angle that one can appreciate why Islām is winning large numbers and rapidly growing through conversions, despite all of the immense negativity.

It is important to note that not all Muslim individuals, societies or nations may exhibit the types of ethics and qualities which have been exemplified above. To take drug-dealers, pimps, groomers, murderers, oppressors, extremists, terrorists and the injustices of localised cultural traditions as examples of what Islām is and what it calls to is from profound ignorance or pure dishonesty.
