The appointment of Bilal as the first ever Muezzin is living proof that Islam is a religion of equality. Each and every Muslim is treated equally irrespective of race, colour and social status. Isalm focuses on the individuals’ degree of obedience to the Will of God and faith in the Islamic philosophy and teachings. True salvation is found in an honest and wholehearted obedience to Allah and the teachings of his Messenger.
