"O you who believe, be upright for Allah, bearers of witness with justice; and let not hatred of a people incite you not to act equitably. Be just; that is nearer to observance of duty. And keep your duty to Allah. Surely Allah is Aware of what you do." (Sura 5:8, from the Koran of Islam)
When we are previously harmed by a group, it can be easy to categorically condemn any subsequent action by any member of that group; but Truly righteous judgment considers the merit/demerit of an act as it stands. Do you have any stereotypes or biases against any group? How do you work to cultivate a genuine objectivity (and perhaps even empathy) with other groups?
Love And Peace.
