Anniversary of Father Moon's Ascension (UPF Co-Founder)
Speech by IMAM DR Mufti Abduljalil Sajid, The Muslim Council for Religious and Racial Harmony UK
‘I have witnessed myself his great contribution in building bridges to bring peace in the world. That is why he is rightly named as a ‘peace king’ and he has worked beyond borders of any differences of race, culture, religion and many other differences in which we human beings are divided.’
The two slogans emphasised by Rev'd Moon I first heard from my father at the age of four and a half. He taught me several sentences in Arabic from the Koran:
‘Best human beings are those who serve others, (my father added) selflessly’
When I read that Rev'd Moon said ‘you must live for the sake of others’, I thought that 'this is the Prophet’s Message so he is the Prophet of God who inviting us to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of others.'
ONE GLOBAL HUMAN FAMILY BUILT ON LOVE, PEACE & UNITY

2nd Anniversary of the Ascension of Father Sun Myung Moon
Founder of the Universal Peace Federation
Lancaster Gate, London, Saturday 16th August 2014
Each time I switch on the television in the past few months, I am greeted with horrifying images of war - images of humans killing other humans. Humans fleeing war waged by fellow humans; humans dying from gunfire or bombs dropped by fellow humans; humans dying of hunger, poverty, dehydration, lack of water, lack of food, lack of shelter - all caused by fellow humans. Humans fleeing their homes or being chased out of their homes by other humans; humans becoming refugees in their own homes and in their own countries; humans trying to flee to neighbouring countries for safety, from fellow humans.
Founder’s Address
Assembly of World’s Religions
MacAfee, New Jersey, USA - November 15, 1985
Honorable Chairman, scholars, leaders from religions around the world, ladies and gentlemen!
I welcome you from the bottom of my heart to the Assembly of the World’s Religions. Our gathering here is not an ordinary event. It is itself a great accomplishment that we, from 85 countries and with such a diversity of religions, cultures, traditions, and nationalities, should come together to open our minds, to harmonize with each other, and to share our concerns about the future of humankind. I am sure that God also is delighted with this historical event.

'A Personal Relationship With God As a Source of Peace'
Please join us on Tuesday July 29th to study together one of the UPF's five principles,
This principle relates to the UPF slogan that 'Humankind is One Family Under God'. God is a loving parent of humankind. This parent - child relationship being a central core to the universe. This establishes a family model of humankind that places rights and responsibilities on family members. There is a source of fundamental rejuvenation, a well spring of life that can be trusted and relied upon through our relationship with our heavenly parent. Faith based organisations can be very effective when the approach is serve all of humanity centred upon God's parental love.
