Did Prophet Muhammad establish social equality?
“O Mankind, your lord is one and your father is one. You all descend from Adam, and Adam was created from earth. He is most honoured among you in the sight of God who is most upright. No Arab is superior to a non-Arab, no coloured person to a white person, or a white person to a coloured person except by piety” (Prophet Muhammad)
Quran says:
“O Mankind ! we created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other. The most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you” (49, 13).
Can any one show a better enunciation of social equality from any source predating Prophet Muhammad? If not, can we say Prophet Muhammad founded social equality?
After all, there are even scientific theories challenging social equality.
thank you very mutch smartbuddy, it's good answer
you are spot on, further if we follow his teachings in finance matters, we wouldnt have seen this crisis what we are seeing today, the whole world is a Riba (Usury) based economy and his teaching of Zakath based economy is really some thing at least we should think NOW?
May god keep all of us away from Riba (usury)
Smart buddy, You r smart as ur id name. Jazakallah Khair.
thank u very mutch smartbuddy
Not just Social Equality he(pbuh) preached a complete way of life, be it financial, social, personal, religious, educational, leadership, equality or any walk of life.
He(PBUH) should be an ideal for every human being, we should try and immitate all his teachings.
May Allah bless the Best Man who ever stepped on earth, Aameen.
