Summary/Abstract: Abdul Hamid Ahmad Abu Suleyman in this interview presents impressive analysis of the first few centuries of Islam, stating that Islam with its universal teachings about God prevailed over Arabian (or any other) tribal loyalty, and affirmed the concept of universal mankind. Sahabis have affirmed the vision of the World (ru'yatu l-alam ), that vision brought about positive and creative fulfilment,realisation of mans abilities and Iness (tahqiqu d-dat). This process of realisation of self in the time of Sahabis did not take place as aresult of loyalty to tribe or loyalty to nation but through the loyalty to the universal idea. The author refers to the ayah of the Qoran, al-baqara,165: but those who believe love God even more!
