Does God show any favoritism among people and prefer some above others?

Bible: No       Qur'an: Yes

Mark 12:14 – Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man; for you regard not the person of men.

Galatians 3:28 – There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 6:9 – your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.


Al-An'am 6:165 – He it is who has paced you as vicegerents of the earth and has exalted some of you in rank above others.

Al-An-Nahl 16:71 & 75 – 71. Allah has favored some of you above others… 75. Are they (at all) equal?

Al-Ahzab 33:50 – O prophet! We have made lawful unto you your wives… A privilege for you only, not the rest of believers.
