The commitment to respond to challenges of active non-violence is urgent in this era. It is because the spread of aggression, terror, violence and the violations of human rights. There have been many victims, such as professional killing, systematic murder, genocide, torture, violence against women and children, and other cruel and inhuman treatments. These barbaric actions cause the growth of the culture of terror and the culture of death which do not respect the human dignity. They will be more terrible if the official government do not take active parts in this matter although they are capable to solve them. Islam as a religion has the obligation to respond to those barbaric actions through active non-violence to create the culture of peace, which promotes and protects the value of peace and fundamental rights in Islamic perspectives. In the Islamic teachings, peace, justice and human rights are inherent rights in the dignity of human. Islam is a unique religion in this world having official teachings of human rights and promoting the culture of peace. This culture must be created and developed together with respect to the culture of life. This is the real challenges that must be resolved.
