By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE EQUAL One who is superior in moral character is also superior in position to one who is lacking in moral fibre. It is one’s inner character, not outwardly pleasant appearance, which counts in the eyes of God. A ccording to a tradition, the Prophet of Islam, while preaching the sermon on the occasion of the Final Pilgrimage observed: “O people, no Arab is superior to a non-Arab and no non-Arab is superior to an Arab, no white is superior to a black and no black is superior to a white, except in religiosity and Godconsciousness.” (Musnad Ahmad 23489) The Creator of all human beings is one and the same. All human beings are the children of Adam and Eve. As such, all human beings are equal. The human races are apparently dissimilar. For instance, some are white and some are black. But all these differences are solely of appearance. In reality, there is no difference between one and another.
