.@Amaka_Ekwo “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 and not that ye may despise each other. Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted with all things.”
~Qur’an [Al Hujurat (The Chambers)] 49:13.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s notes:
4933 This is addressed to all mankind and not only to the Muslim brotherhood, though it is understood that in a perfected world the two would be synonymous. As it is, mankind is descended from one pair of parents. Their tribes, races, and nations are convenient labels by which we may know certain differing characteristics. Before Allah they are all one, and he gets most honour who is most righteous.
