It is reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) delivered a sermon wherein he stated, "O people, indeed your Lord is one and your forefather is one. Indeed, there is no superiority for the Arab over the non-Arab nor the non-Arab over the Arab, and there is no superiority for the white over the black nor the black over the white. Have I conveyed the message?" The people replied, "The Messenger of Allah has conveyed the message." [Musnad Ahmad (23489, sahih)]
