                                                 he rage felt against other races is
                                                 responsible for the majority of
                                    T Tconflicts, clashes and civil wars
                                         around the world. In the cases of the
                                         aggressive attitude assumed by the white
                                         race towards blacks, or the Nazi ideal of
                                         achieving a pure race and the subsequent
                                         conflict with the Allies that claimed
                                         millions of lives in recent history, or tribal
                                         clashes in Africa, we always encounter
                                         one and the same factor: "fanatical rage."
                                            This misunderstanding suggests that
                                         one particular race is, either physically or
                                         mentally or both, superior to another and
                                         that it is unnecessary for the superior one
                                         to have feelings of mercy, compassion and
                                         respect for the other. The same rationale,
                                         in extreme cases, deems even coexistence
                                         of these races as wrong. This is, however,
                                         a dangerous mentality, since it further
                                         leads to thinking that there is no reason
                                         for various nations to exist, thereby
                                         making the elimination of "different" races
                                         compulsory.
                                            In the Qur'an, Allah reveals that
                                         various nations and tribes exist so that
                                         "people might come to know each other."
                                         The diversity of nations, races, tribes and
                                         languages is a beauty peculiar to Allah's
                                         creation. That one person incurs the anger
