No distinction among the Prophets

The basis of the social structure of the Islamic Umma consists in the nature of the Islamic consociation of Muslims as part of their allegiance to the divine will.

The Islamic Umma is a social gathering religiously oriented striving to serve a divine message depicted in the Qur'an and the Sunna.

The idea behind the Muslims' social gathering is to worship God and to serve Him by implementing His law and cooperating to establish what is good and shun what is evil.

The goal is not only worldly relations but also serving a higher and ultimate goal namely eternal felicity.

The Islamic Umma is a community of God. It is based on belief in God, a brotherhood, where Muslims cooperate in a social solidarity to attain the favour of God.

In order to form a functioning society we must have laws that decide and manage public affairs as well as personal affairs. Islamic Sharia depicts a model of such laws.

It is the Man-God relation where social dictates and rules are provided.

The first principle of the Islamic social structure, as it is in the political structure, is equal distribution of rights and responsibilities.

No one Muslim is better than the other unless in piety where Muslims do not make distinctions among each other. This is so in order not to takes lords and patrons among themselves. All honour is vested in God.

This distinction is made only by God. Muhammad himself is considered in the sources of Islam as another human being:

Muhammad is but a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) have passed away before him. Will it be that, when he dies or is slain, you will turn back on your heels? He who turns back on his heels does not hurt to God, and God reward the thankful.' 3: 144

No distinction is made among the messengers of God as the Qur'an specifies:

(They say):We make no distinction between any of His messengers.' 2: 285
