"O mankind! We created you from a male and a female and made you into nations and tribes that you may know and honor each other (not that you should despise one another). Indeed the most honorable of you in the sight of God is the most righteous" (Qur'an 49:13) "Say ye (Muslims): 'We believe in God and the revelation given to us and to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and it is unto Him that we surrender ourselves." (Quran 2:136) "And Verily, you (O Muhammad) are on an exalted standard of character" (Qur'an 68:4) "O Messenger of Allah! It is a great Mercy of Allah that you are gentle and kind towards them; for, had you harsh and hardhearted, they would all have broken away from you" (Qur'an 3:159) "We sent you not (O Muhammad), but as a Mercy for all creatures" (Qur'an 21:107) "Most certainly, you (people) have in the messenger of Allah an excellent pattern (of behavior)" (Qur'an 33:21) Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
" The best among you are the best in character (having good manners)." (Bukhari, Book #73, Hadith #61) "I was sent to perfect good character" (Muwatta, Book #47, Hadith #47.1.8) Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) called for the universal brotherhood of man at all times. One of the major function and goals expressed by the prophet was to develop a sense of higher character among the people and to help them forget their minor and narrow differences, such as color, race and nationality, so that they could rise above these limitations and reap the fruits of human brotherhood by helping each other in all that is for the common good of humanity.
