Islam teaches that we are all equal, God has created us free and equal. The prophet (peace be upon him) said many times no one is superior to any of his fellow men on grounds of colour, race, status, lineage or wealth. God Al-Mighty looks at our hearts and our deeds. Islam attracted the poor and the oppressed because it gave them strength and faith.These first converts became the greatest Muslims, who have been revered through the centuries like Bilal the Abbisinian slave who became the caller to the prayers and has been promised paradise by the Al-Mighty.

Which aspects of Islam would have appealed to the poor enslaved isolated- many of the first Muslim converts?

Answer 1Muslims did not have to pay taxes, other than giving zakat-alms (mentioned in the Five Pillars) while Non-Muslims did have to pay taxes. The four classes of the Muslim Empire stated that Muslim converts were second class. These advantages would have appealed to the poverty-suffering Islamic converts.Answer 2Islam teaches that all humans are equal. A white man has no claim of superiority to a black man. The criterion of Superiority is Piety. All human beings are the off-spring of ONE and the Same Almighty Allah (God). He has created them and loves them all. This equality appealed to the slaves and the poor to convert to Islam.

Muslim converts are not called "Abu Hamza". Muslim converts are called Muslims as is everyone else who follows Islam.
