<P> Ali ibn Abi Talib (4th Caliph in Sunni Islam, and first Imam in Shia Islam) says: </P> <P> "O' my child, make yourself the measure (for dealings) between you and others . Thus, you should desire for others what you desire for yourself and hate for others what you hate for yourself . Do not oppress as you do not like to be oppressed . Do good to others as you would like good to be done to you . Regard bad for yourself whatever you regard bad for others . Accept that (treatment) from others which you would like others to accept from you...Do not say to others what you do not like to be said to you ." </P> <P> The Writings of the Bahá'í Faith encourages everyone to treat others as they would treat themselves and even prefer others over oneself: </P> <P> O SON OF MAN! Deny not My servant should he ask anything from thee, for his face is My face; be then abashed before Me . </P>

Who said do unto others as you would have them do unto you
