The universality of Islam is translated by its very mission as rahmatan li al-'alamin (a mercy to all creation). In Islam,the commandments from Allah SWT are to be obeyed and translated in day to day practices. As such, the basic principles of shura, justice, freedom, and equality prevail in a society and are experienced by all the creatures.
In this kind of ambiance, one is assured of his or her right - honor, progeny, religion, wealth, life, and intellect are protected. Ecological balance is preserved which shall contribute towards sustainable development. The minority enjoys the same standing except in matters of religion. No authority is above the law. As far as Muslims are concerned, iman and ihsan assume the role of moral sanctioning. Age, color, position, race and gender are all blind as long as the state of the former remains operative.
As such, why is it Islam remains exclusive? Are the Muslims not playing their roles or the Others are still imbued with prejudice mind?
