students studying under him from all over the world. They did not just
learn about Islam, but were taught various subjects including
mathematics, astronomy and science. This eventually terminated the
Dark Age in Europe.
We can fulfill our responsibility of serving mankind by educating the
people, laying more emphasis on Islamic education, arranging
educational and awareness campaigns about Islam, helping the people -
especially the youth - understand the true meaning behind the message
brought by Holy Prophet and protected byAhlul Bayt, even at the cost
of their lives. We must encourage them to spread this knowledge among
fellow beings.
A Muslim's responsibility does not end just here. It is our duty to
act as true representatives of Islam and behave in accordance to the
Islamictenets. We are expected to treat our fellow beingswith love and
honesty, torespect them and always be available to them whenever they
are in need, whatever may be the kind of their need.
Some uninformed peopleobject that, "If Islam is a true religion of
God, thenwhy doesn't it help mankind and promote peace and love?"
Islam states that service to humanity is a part of faith. Muslims
should be actively engaged in socialwelfare and educational needs, not
only for fellowMuslims, but also for all the communities where they
reside.
You are the best community that has beenraised for mankind. You enjoin
good and forbid evil and you believe in Allah. [Aal-e-Imran, 3:110]
In this verse, Muslims have been enjoined by Allah (SWT) to serve
mankind and promote goodness. If they fail to achieve this, then they
can not state that they are the "best community". After all, a faith
which is insensitive to the suffering of other human beings and is not
inclined to serve the cause of humanity cannot be described as a good
faith. But Islam teaches that Muslims must be always ready to serve
mankind and have love and kindness for all of God's creation.
And serve Allah and do not associate any thing with Him and be good to
the parents and to the near of kin and the orphans and the needy and
the neighbor of (your) kin and the alien neighbor, and the companion
in a journey and the wayfarer and those whom your right hands possess;
surely Allah does not love him who is proud, boastful; [An-Nisa, 4:36]
In this verse, Allah (SWT) very beautifully guides the Muslims to
discharge their duties towards all sections of society. We should
display kindness to everyone whether they are kind to us or not. In
this way by following this teaching we can create peace, loveand
harmony in the society.
Noble Qur'an expressly declares that the human race is one family. All
of us are the children of Adam and Eve, whether our skin is white or
black.At various places it says:"All human beings are a single nation"
(2:213)."All human beings are naught but a single nation and yet they
disagree" (10:19). "And verily this your nation (human beings) is a
single nation" (21:92) and (23:52).
