Proud to be a Muslim isn't a stamp you have on your heart, it's a light you have in your heart.
Tariq RamadanAs Muslims, we are all equals, we abide by the laws and we understand that we have to be active citizens wherever we are. Our goals are first to live by our principles, to remind people of these values, to reconcile our respective societies with these shared universal values and to try our best to push for a spiritual agenda with more ethics in society, in politics, in economics, and in culture.
Tariq RamadanSaying that Islam is in heart, is similar to giving back the exam's paper completely white and saying : knowledge is in brain.
Tariq RamadanStill I have been invited I don't know how many times to Turkey, where Turkey has been following very quickly in the footsteps of what is sometimes referred to as the movement of cyber-dissidents. They have been training young people and also encouraging them to come into contact with western Muslims.
