Al Quran is the forkan. Allah refers to the Quran as forkan the criteria to judge right from wrong. al Quran has the solution to the problem of racism. one of the biggest problem in the world today is racism. Allah gives the solution in Surah Hujrat, chapter number 49 verse number 13

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُم مِّن ذَكَرٍ وَأُنثَىٰ وَجَعَلْنَاكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَائِلَ لِتَعَارَفُوا ۚ إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِندَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ
O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things).
[49:13]

Allah says, oh humankind we have created you from a single pair of male and female, and have divided you into Nations and tribes. So that you shall recognize each other not that you shall despise each other and the most honored in the sight of Allah subhana wa ta’ala is the person who has taqwa, who has God Consciousness, who has paity, who has righteousness.

The criteria for judgment in the sight of Allah subhana wa tala in the Glorious Quran it’s not wealth, it’s not age, it’s not sex, it’s not color, it is taqwa, it is righteousness, it is piety, it’s God Consciousness.

According to the Quran no black man is superior to a white man or a white man super to a black man no rich man is supered to a poor man or a poor man to a rich man no male is super to a female or a female to a male unless with one criteria taqwa, righteousness, God Consciousness, tawhid.

This one verse of the Quran will solve all the problem of racism in the world if the humanity follows this. Our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallahu Al wasallam in the last and farewell pilgrimage in he said that no Arab is superior to a non-arab or no non-arab is superior to an Arab a white man is not Superior to a black man neither a black man is superior to a white man, except by taqwa and we demonstrate this every day five times of our life every day in Salah. When we stand for Salah We Stand shoulder to shoulder feet to feet, whether king or poor, black or white, yellow or brown, rich or poor, when we stand for Salah in front of Allah, We Stand Together.

It will abolish all kinds of racism in the world Quran because it has the solution for racism I say Al-Quran is a global necessity everyone in the world should know about the Quran and follow it, then only will they be peace.
