The Constitution of Medina

A grown-up reads you the short text; the longer one you read yourself.

The Prophet wrote an agreement that brought the people of Medina together in peace and mutual help, so that all became one community protecting one another.

After the Hijra the Prophet ﷺ wrote a document to organise life in Medina among the Muslims and their neighbours, including Jews and others. It said that all were one community, that each group kept its own religion, and that people would help one another defend the city. It was the first arrangement for a community of several faiths in Medina.
