This world is filled with so many people of many different beautiful skin tones ranging from fair to dark brown coming from all walks of life. Allah, who is truly an artist, could have made us all one color, with the same hair color, eye color. He could have made us all exactly the same, but He didn't. He, Most Great and Merciful, has made each and every one of us different so that we may appreciate each other's differences. See the beauty that surrounds us that is His Creation. His work of art.
When I look around at the sea of people, all I see is beauty. Absolute beauty. I see no race. That's something an idiot came up with and it should be abolished. I don't see one color being better than the other. Why would I see such things? It's pointless. It achieves nothing great, so why subject our young, impressionable children to such things. For me to think one is better than the other because of the color of their skin would be like me saying, "Allah! Um...You made a mistake!" He NEVER makes a mistake. He made us perfect. He made us beautiful.
As I gather the fabrics to make these dolls, I take into consideration the colors that closely resembles our beautiful skin colors: caramel brown or coffee with just a bit of cream, deep chocolate brown, fair with just a hint of peach. I try to pick out the best color yarn that best captures, as close as I can get it, the color hair the little girl may have such as black, brown or blonde. I even added a red head to the Lil' Muslimah Doll collection to represent our beautiful red heads out there.
In putting all of these things together, in looking at the sea of different shades of skin, in looking at the beauty that is Allah's creation, I make a doll for every girl. Why? Because THEY...ARE...BEAUTIFUL. If you don't think so, then you need to get your eyes and heart checked.
We are all beautiful in the eyes of Allah. Who can color better than Him? He is after all, the Artist.
