Humanism is a philosophical and ethical stance that empha-sizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively, and generally prefers critical thinking and evidence (rationalism and empiricism) over acceptance of dogma or superstition. Humanism as a philosophy today can be as little as a perspective on life or as much as an entire way of life; the common feature is that it is always focused primarily on human needs and interests. Humanism is a rational philosophy informed by science, inspired by art, and motivated by compassion. Humanism derives the goals of life from human need and interest rather than from theological or ideological abstractions, and asserts that humanity must take responsibility for its own destiny. Humanism is a democratic and ethical life stance which affirms that human beings have the right and responsibility to give meaning and shape to their own lives. It stands for the building of a more humane society through an ethics based on human and other natural values in a spirit of reason and free inquiry through human capabilities. It is not theistic, and it does not accept supernatural views of reality. Islam rejects the basic philosophical premise that humans rather than God are the measure of all things and that all intrinsic moral values are derived from human desires and needs. Islam, like other Semitic religions, teaches that God is the ultimate source of all moral values. Humanistic psych-ology concepts are too vague. Critics argue that subjective ideas such as authentic and real experiences are difficult to objectify; an experience that is real for one individual may not be real for another person. For this reason, critics believe that conclusions drawn from subjective experiences are almost impossible to verify, making research in humanistic psych-ology unreliable. In addition, critics claim that humanistic psychology is not a true science because it involves too much common sense and not enough objectivity.
PEACE ESTABLISHMENT: ROLE OF INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANISATIONS(A historical and analytical study) The research study consists of five chapters. It is unique quality of Islam to seek out pragmatic solution to the contemporary problems and to maintain the balance of human rights on the basis of Islamic literature. To pen down the bleak scenario, what Muslims, particularly Pakistani nation witnessed since 9/11/2001 is beyond the researcher’s approach in terms of time and resources. Discrimination of all sorts, say, on the basis of race, language and religion against Muslims are being justified by the United Nation and the international community. On one side, Islam and Muslims are being declared as the emblem of prejudice and hatredness that it possesses danger to the international peace but on the other side of the coin Muslims are seemed the lonely aggrieved nation on the global landscape and stigmatized on international level. The researcher has brought this blatant paradox to the fore and also pleaded that Muslims should not be stigmatized on the name of religion but pragmatic solution of the whole dilemma should be sought out. Additionally, UN should look into the contemporary problems in the light of glorious and peaceful periods of Muhammad (PBUH) and Pious caliphs. Furthermore, Muslims are also warned in the light of Quran and Hadith for their egoism, internal conflicts among themselves in the name of Din. Islam is a peaceful Din that teaches tolerance and gives rights to any sect, cast, creed and religion to be lived with; without any discrimination. No doubt, there might be weaknesses in the Muslims but non-Muslim has also left no stone unturned to stigmatize the Islam as the religion of terror. At the end, may Allah accept this minute effort and make the nation of Islam particularly Pakistan strong and peaceful region of the world. Amin
