Farsideology: Muhammad's Black Slave Mahran
From WikiIslam
Farside’s Memory Verse of the Day 
Muhammad substituted his black slave Mahran for broken down donkeys. 
Narrated by Mahran: The apostle of God and his companions went on a trip. (When) their belongings became too heavy for them to carry, Muhammad told me, `Spread your garment.' They filled it with their belongings, then they put it on me. The apostle of God told me, `Carry (it), for you are a ship.' 
Even if I was carrying the load of six or seven donkeys while we were on a journey, anyone who felt weak would throw his clothes or his shield or his sword on me so I would carry that, a heavy load. The prophet told me, `You are a ship"' (reference to Ibn Qayyim, pp. 115-116; al-Hulya, Vol. 1, p. 369, quoted from Ahmad 5:222).
Instead of the star and crescent moon, a picture of the black slave Mahran carrying the load of seven donkeys should become the universal symbol of Islam.
Kind Regards, Farside
