Doest this sound like casts just like hinduism in islam.....i mean look at those bold letters in your quote, and now read following from hinduism especially brahmin's made rules;

Early Indian texts like the Manusmriti and the Puranas speak of 'Varna,' which means order, type or colour. It groups the society into four idealised main types as follows.
Brahmins (scholars, teachers, priests)
Kshatriyas (warriors, kings, administrators)
Vaishyas (agriculturists, merchants)
Shudras (artisans, service providers)

Do you think Islam allows it too?
he is talking about the classifications that were given by the non-muslim arabs before islam took hold of the region.
