religion and racism
#13
RE: religion and racism
From an Islamic perspective, I don't agree.

According to the following Quran verse (chapter 43 verse 13)

"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 (not that ye may despise each other)."

Islam does not allow racism because God created people with different race, colour, nation etc so that we may know each other not that we may despise each other, and if you think about it makes perfect sense. Let's give a simple:.....I live in London and it has over 20 boroughs, each borough has numerous towns and each town has it's own post code with different street names and doors numbers; for what reason, for uniqueness. Now suppose that London did not have any boroughs, and there was no different towns, no post code, no street names and no door numbers, just London; the postman would have a hard time delivering mail. That's the same with this world, God created people with different colour, looks, shapes, size, nations, tribes, etc so that we may know each other and not despise each other like racism.
