Biblical and Qur'anic quotes promoting peace and tolerance

[A4B4]

Hello there!

I was curious if you all would care to share some quotes from your respective religious texts which promote peace or tolerance, et cetera?

I just want a place to turn to, to see the love and tolerance that can exist among the Abrahamic religions. I'd also like for the quotes to be consistent with their context, and I invite constructive and respectful criticism.

I'll begin with Romans 14:19, from the New International Version of the Christian New Testament:
"Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification."

 

[Thales of Ga.]

To show that is fine,but it does not make up for all the calls for genocide and such.

 

[JayHawes]

Ro 12:18 "If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men"

 

[mcteethinator]

'You will not enter Paradise until you believe. And you will not believe until you love one another. And you will not love one another until you spread peace among you.' That's a Hadith. I'll have to find the exact source later.

If anyone slays a person
- unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land -
it would be as if he slew all people.
And if anyone saves a life,
it would be as if he saved the life of all people.
Qur'an 5:32

Invite all to the way of your Lord
with wisdom and beautiful preaching.
And argue with them
in ways that are best and most gracious...
And if you punish,
let your punishment be proportional
to the wrong that has been done to you.
But if you show patience, that is indeed the best course.
Be patient, for your patience is from God.
And do not grieve over them,
or distress yourself because of their plots.
For God is with those who restrain themselves,
and those who do good.
Qur'an 16:125-128

Oh you who believe!
Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God,
even against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin,
and whether it be against rich or poor,
for God can best protect both.
Follow not the cravings of your hearts, lest you swerve,
and if you distort justice or decline to do justice,
verily God is well acquainted with all that you do.
Qur'an 4:135
