Prophet Muhammad’s Love for All Beings
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, was described by God in The Qur'an as a Mercy for all Mankind
His heart was filled with intense love for all human beings irrespective of caste, creed, or color.
He advised his Companions to regard all people as their brothers and sisters. "You are all Adam’s offspring and Adam was born of clay"...
