In the pluralistic and full of conflicts world of today, the issue of understanding tolerance, forbearance and peaceful coexistence is an inevitable urgency, and contemplating the deep thoughts and works of Mir Syed Ali Hamdani and his contents about techniques to achieve a peaceful life represents his attention towards this necessity of human society. Tolerance and forbearance in his thought is a moral and human virtue whose origin is Islam and the holy Quran. He believes that Allahs pardon and mercy for people is vast which presents hope and joy so that they could know their contemporary time optimistically and dynamically.
