N2  - Personal experiences of fighting of peace could provide insights on how peace is construed by the Bangsamoro. Narrative analysis was used to understand the Bangsamoro construction of peace and how they plan and attain such peace. An episodic interview instead of a straight narrative interview proved more useful for extracting data. Considerable meanings of peace were categorized by specific classifications. Patterns were then established for analysis. Narratives revealed political ideas that pertained to the creation of independent Bangsamoro State, a way to peace in the political aspect wherein they hold the power and control. The free and totally complete practice of Islam determines serenity of Muslims in the religious aspect of their lives. Sustainable subsistence would predetermine peaceful living through the implementation of country. Economic peace can be achieved only if there is an integral power in administration, thus it demands an independent state. The respect and tolerance of culture will mean cultural peace giving an importance to Islamic customary laws and traditions. Lastly the absence of war and prejudice against the Muslims in the Philippines will promote harmonious and peaceful living among the people. From the findings of the study, this kind of peace was revealed to be only attainable through Jihad or armed struggle, a religious obligation in Islam, unless the government favorably liberates Muslims from the Philippine control were they feel relative oppression. The Bangsamoro people constructed peace as the self-determination and independence in their homeland that would eventually attain the end goal of peace in political, religious, economic, cultural and social aspect of their lives under the adherence to Islamic principles
