"THEN FLOW DOWN FROM WHERE THE PEOPLE FLOWED, AND SEEK FORGIVENESS FROM ALLAH. CERTAINLY ALLAH IS MOST-FORGIVING, VERY-MERCIFUL." (SURAH AL-BAQARAH:199)
Part 2
This verse of the Quran gives us an important civic lesson that people of a higher social status should not segregate themselves from those of a lower social status, but should intermingle with them and live between them. This creates a feeling of love and affection between people, and breaks down the barriers between the rich and the poor. In the sermon that Rasool Allah ﷺ (the Holy Prophet SAW) gave during his last Hajj he clearly declared for all times to come that no Arab is superior to a non-Arab, and no white person is superior to a black person. Superiority in Islam depends on Taqwa (fear of Allah) and Ita'ah (obedience to His commands).
