Addressing Discrimination – Dr. Abu Talha

All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a White has no superiority over a Black nor a Black has any superiority over a White except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly." The Sahabah, may Allah be pleased with them, came from different backgrounds; some from Abyssinia, Rome, some from Persia. The tie of "asabiyyah," sometimes translated as group feeling or tribal affiliation, was superseded by the bond of Islam, which superseded all other loyalties. They stood beside one another regardless of ethnicity or class out of their love for Allah and his Rasul ?. It's often said that the merit of a civilization is shown by how it treats those with the least influence. This week, we will be looking at how Islam addresses the issue discrimination within society, whether its causes stem from wealth inequality, racial intolerance, or other divisive factors. InshaAllah, we invite Dr. Abu Talha to Islamic Oasis LIVE to discuss this topic. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G_D6aO1r2k
