Pluralism, worship of One God, belief in all the Prophets, good conduct, lawful means of subsistence, avoidance of satanic footsteps, occurrence of Resurrection and human embryology are the messages directly spoken to all mankind. The Quran addresses all human kind in both ways, directly and indirectly. The words ‘Ya ayyuh al-nas’ (O’ Mankind) in the Quran denote an expression of direct address (vocative case) by which all individuals of the mankind spoken to are set forth expressly within the verse.

Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy” (2:168) Read More https://newageislam.com/islam-and-pluralism/ghulam-ghaus-siddiqi,-new-age-islam/o%E2%80%99-mankind-in-the-quran%E2%80%94believe-or-accept-pluralism/d/121148
