Futuwwa has been an Islamic term for ‘spiritual chivalry’ for centuries. In Christianity, chivalry has been seen more in ‘behavioral codes’ which many believe are declining. Yet Christ dying for humankind’s sins on the cross – at the heart of Christianity – is the ultimate act of spiritual chivalry.
