Nabil Ahmad, Priceless Information

Submitted by Infidel (Canada), Aug 31, 2006 at 02:49

Nabil Ahmad, why are you trying to hurt my feelings? I've been studying Qur'an, Ahadiths, Hadiths, Sunnahs and look what I learned today. This is very exciting. I always wondered why there are white, black and red hued people on earth and Muhammad(PBUH) explained in this Ahadith, or Hadith or Sunnah:

Tabari I:258 Allah sent Gabriel to the earth to bring Him some clay. The earth said, ‘I take refuge in Allah
against you mutilating me. So Gabriel returned without having taken any clay and said, ‘Lord, the earth took refuge in You, and I granted its wish. Allah then sent Michael, and exactly the same thing happened. Then He sent the angel of death. He took some soil from the earth and made a mixture. He did not take it from a single place but took red, white, and black soil. Therefore, the children of Adam came out different.

I say old chap, were you aware of this morsel of information? Muslims should be sharing this information with Infidels, Christians and Jews rather than expecting mentally warped Infidels like me to share this priceless information. ...
