Emphasis on Human Brotherhood - Essay Example

In God's eyes, the most honored of you are the ones most aware of Him: God is all-knowing, all-aware (Quran, 49:13 [slide 71]).

The above Hadith and the Quran verse both seem to agree with each other on how no man is born greater than the other by God regardless of race, color, or creed, and how a man should live together in harmony. The only thing that differentiates man is how holy or devoted he is to his religion [Slide, 71]. The verse and hadith are relevant in our present day because they preach on the equality of man. Their significance comes out clearly because in the present world unlike in the past man is not judged using his race, creed, or color but by what he has to offer in the name of his character. This is the only way most people today judge. Also, the two scriptures do act as a challenge to people in the present world who have become so self-centered and have stopped being their brother’s keeper.
