A. 1. Equality in Islam
The message of Islam is for the entire human race. According to Islam, Allah (SWT) is the
Creator of the entire world and the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) is the Messenger of Allah
Almighty for the whole mankind. Islam unites the entire human race under one banner without
any kind of discrimination. Islam does not distinguish between human beings according to
their races, gender, color, or their beliefs. Islam looks at everyone as equal to each other,
because at the end we are all the same in front of Allah Almighty. Humans are all made of
mud, all mankind is the lineage of Adam and Adam was formed out of clay. Islam even does
not distinguish between man and woman; all are equal in front of Allah.
According to Quran, everyone is equal in front of Allah, what really matters and differ humans
from each other is their own actions in life and what they did during their living period on earth.
The Quran urges without commanding, kindness to the slave and recommends their liberation
by purchase or mannerism this is equality in Islam.
In the eyes of Allah, all are equal, except for when it comes to piousness and righteousness.
Those who have these two qualities have a better standing in the court of Allah, other than
that they are all the same. Therefore, thinking that Islam has something to do with racial,
cultural or social discrimination is a false pretense.
C. VISITING IN ISLAM
The Etiquette of Visiting/Hosting People Visiting fellow Muslims for the sake of Allah is of great
virtue in Islam. This has been confirmed in so many Hadiths. Here are two of them: 1. Abu
Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, quotes the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon
him, as saying that “a man went to visit a brother of his in another village. Allah the Almighty
sent an angel to wait for him on the road.

The Holy Qur’an commands: “When you enter homes, observe Salaam with one another – a
Salaam of blessing and purity from Allah.” (Surah Nur verse 61)
If you are traveling to visit someone or if you are about to receive guests, whether those in
question are your parents, relatives, peers, or friends of a different age, make sure that your
hands, feet, and socks are clean, and your appearance and clothing is neat. Never neglect or
underestimate the importance of your look, for that would certainly mar the pleasure of the
meeting, while dulling the enjoyment of those you meet. In this regard, the Prophet(peace be
upon him) directed his companions upon returning from a journey: ‘You are returning to
your brethren, dress nicely, and sort out your rides so that you may become a beauty
mark among people, for Allah does not like sloppiness or acting in a sloppy way.’
Enter or leave your house with your right foot first, as it was the tradition of the Prophet(peace
be upon him). Imaam Abul Ala Hasan ibn Ahmad al-Hamazani, a great scholar of Hadith of his
time, was so keen on applying this Sunnah to the extent that if someone entered his house
with their left foot first, he would ask them to go out and re-enter with their right foot first. He
was so much respected that the Sultan of the day would visit him at school and sit in front of
him as a student. At one occasion, he told the Sultan to exit with his right foot first and walk on
the right side of the road.
When entering or leaving a house, do not push the door violently, or slam it shut, or leave it to
close by itself wildly. Such actions stand in contrast to the gracefulness of Islam to whichyou
are honored to belong. Close the door quietly with your hand. You may have heard a Hadith
reported by Imam Muslim whereby ‘Aisha (Radiyallahu Anha) quotes the Prophet(peace be
upon him): ‘Gentleness adorns every act. Its absence will tarnish it.’
