[Kilaoksrsa]

i agree in learning one can exceed others in knowledge.

in observance one can exceed others in piety

in abstinence one can exceed others in virtue...


...but there is nothing innately special about one human being as distinct from another.

all men (and women) were created equal...and all can aspire to the same goals.


there are no "chosen ones" among human beings, we are all potentially 'wali' or proximate to God.


(except the Prophets [pbut]....who were pre-ordained with a special mission)
