Transcription

[Partial] The Qur’an... It says you are the best of nations ever evolved. Why? Why Muslims say that? ...He says, in the same verse, “The reason why I say you are the best of nations is because why? Because you command everything that is good... You command every excellent action, everything that is good." That’s what Islam is about... You also prevent the doing of injustice... Because you do this, you are the best of nations. What if we don’t do it? We are not the best of nations. We cannot be the best of nations. We are only the best of nations because we command the doing of good.
