socio-cultural freedom regardless of cast, creed, faith or gender and promotes inter and

(g) An excellent example of intra-faith
respect is the reception offered to a Christian delegate from Nejran, which was officially
hosted in Masjid-e-Nabvi (The Mosque of the Holy Prophet (PBUH)) at Medina by the Holy
Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) himself. When they expressed desire for a
place of worship according to their own faith the Holy Prophet (PBUH) allowed them to
worship in his own mosque. This is an unparalleled example of intra-faith tolerance and
mutual respect. |
