I Congratulate Sri Sri Ravishankar about his effort and bringing one step closer to Islam
Qur%u2019an cuts the very roots of racism/caste in these words:
'O mankind! We have created you from a single male and female and made you into nations and tribes so that you may know each other. The most honorable of you in the sight of Allah are surely the righteous." (Chapter 49: 13)
And again: "O mankind! Be careful of your duty to your Lord Who created you from a single soul and from it created its mate and from them twain hath spread abroad a multitude of men and women.%u201D (Chapter 4: 1)
Thus Islam stresses the absolute unity in variety of the human race.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) declared: "O people! You are all from Adam and Adam was made of dust. No Arab is to be preferred over a non-Arab except by virtue of his piety." He also said: "Allah does not look at your shapes or your colors but He looks at your hearts (intentions) and your deeds. Creatures are the dependants of Allah and the closest among them to Allah are indeed the most useful to His dependants."

Thanks Ali on your enlighted evaluation. Islam needs people like you to stop destrustion of Sunnis and Shaiits among themselves. You are a true Muslim and I have great respect for you as I don't know your age. We hate MF Hussain who is a Muslim an enemy of Hindus and Desadrohi, whom India or Bharata Mata cannot forgive him and will pay for his atrociites. Malathi

Problem here is, when Islam was spread in India in middle ages, it was NOT because it gave equal rights to everybody.
They talked about its a true religion vs false.
Muslims started equating Islam with equality ONLY after French revolution.
There is NO MENTION OF EQUALITY in Islamic literature prior to that.

Even during reign of 4 "rightly guided Khalifs", when Islamic army invaded lots of areas outside Arabian Peninsula, THERE USED TO BE SEPARATE QUARTERS, RIGHTS OF NON-ARAB AND ARAB MUSLIMS.
EVEN ARAB AND NON-ARAB MUSLIMS DID NOT HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS TO WAR BOOTY.
Equality in Islam is a after thought inserted by Islamists post French revolution.
