Abu Nadrah says: The person who heard the sermon of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, in the middle of the days of Tashreeq narrated to me, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: O people! Your Lord is one and your father is one. Beware! No Arab has any superiority over a non-Arab, nor does a non-Arab have any superiority over an Arab; neither a white person over a black person, nor a black person over a white person—except by piety. Have I conveyed the message of Allah to you? The companions said: The Messenger of Allah has conveyed the message of Allah. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, asked: What day is this today? The companions said: Today is a sacred day. He asked: What month is this? The companions replied: This is a sacred month. Then he, peace and blessings be upon him, inquired: What city is this? The companions said: This is a sacred city. He said: Allah the Exalted has made your blood, your wealth, and your honor forbidden to one another, just as the sanctity of this day, in this month, in this city. Have I conveyed the message of Allah to you? The companions said: The Messenger of Allah has conveyed the message. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Those who are present here should convey these words to those who are not present.
