What about non-Muslims that believe in God?

God said
002.062
YUSUFALI Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.005.069
YUSUFALI Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
please dont talk without knowledge
022.008
YUSUFALI Yet there is among men such a one as disputes about Allah, without Knowledge, without Guidance, and without a Book of Enlightenment,-Is God in the verse talks about (the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness) of Today ?
Is he mentioned that they will be in heaven ?
-
Are you saying Christians and Jews are not righteous today O
-
So which ayat is correct of the two?
262 VERILY, those who have attained to faith , as well as those who follow the Jewish faith, and the Christians, and the Sabians -all who believe in God and the Last Day and do righteous deeds-shall have their reward with their Sustainer; and no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve.
385 If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah., never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good).
What about these?
319 The Religion before Allah is Islam (submission to His Will) Nor did the People of the Book dissent therefrom except through envy of each other, after knowledge had come to them. But if any deny the Signs of Allah, Allah is swift in calling to account.
53 .................This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you ISLAM as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
6125 Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to ISLAM; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe.
3922 Is one whose heart Allah has opened to ISLAM, so that he has received Enlightenment from Allah, (no better than one hard-hearted)? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against celebrating the praises of Allah. they are manifestly wandering (in error)!
617 Who doth greater wrong than one who invents falsehood against Allah, even as he is being invited to ISLAM? And Allah guides not those who do wrong.
Why follow the Quran? Why not follow the Jewish, Christian and Sabian way as salvation shall be obtained either way in line with ayat 262. Heck, why even have a Free-Minds website, because does it not defeat the object of Quran Alone when we can all be part of the ayat 262?
Peace

Zulu, the problem is you think Islam as its known in the world is the 'islam' found in the quran. It so is NOT.
3/85 harmonises well with 2/62 and 5/69 if u can get past this 'we are the only Islam' mindset.
-
So which ayat is correct of the two?
Well, they must both be correct, obviously.
And, such being the case, we've obviously gone wrong with our interpretation/translation of "islam" ...with a capital I
because the other verse is more than clear. -
Dear abdalquran
Please explain the harmony of 262 and 385 and whilst you are at it, what would you say about this ayat
2135 AND THEY say, "Be jews" - or, "Christians" - "and you shall be on the right path." Say "Nay, but the creed of Abraham, who turned away from all that is false, and was not of those who ascribe divinity to aught beside God."
Furthermore
2120 For, never will the jews be pleased with thee. nor yet the Christians, unless thou follow their own creeds. Say "Behold, God's guidance is the only true guidance." And, indeed, if thou shouldst follow their errant views after all the knowledge that has come unto thee. thou wouldst have none to protect thee from God, and none to bring thee succour.
Peace

Are you saying Christians and Jews are not righteous today O
Are they ?
look i'm going to give you my last words any one not believing in the prophet peace be upon him is not going to be ok after his death , God has swore by the life of the prophet " Al-Hijr72. Verily, by your life (O Muhammad م, in their wild intoxication, they were wandering blindly. "
-
I don't think ANYone calling shots in religion today is righteous.
I'm guessing Prophet must have felt the same. Yes. Peace be upon him!Dear shadowpuppet
Please explain how both the ayats are correct.
Peace
Because "islam" literally means "surrender" to the will of God, in English.
(I am careful to say "in English" because this original Arabic isn't like English... it doesn't use punctuation and caps in the English sense. Words are like sand.... spiraling from and around their source.)There is, it would seem, then... more than one way to surrender to God's will, if Christians, Sabians & Jews are all welcome in Prophet's kingdom.
Peace be upon them all.

look i'm going to give you my last words
Alhamdulillah!!! bravoany one not believing in the prophet peace be upon him is not going to be ok after his death , God has swore by the life of the prophet " Al-Hijr72. Verily, by your life (O Muhammad م, in their wild intoxication, they were wandering blindly. "
Who said because we dont follow made up hadith that we dont 'believe' in the prophet?? Of course we believe in the prophet, we are muslims. ???

You are saying that the prophet is only for deliver the message, so your faith is not as it is supposed to be .

Allah said that actually, im sure you know the verses so I wont post them for the millionth time as im sure you will manage to twist them to mean something totally different in line with hadith. My faith is my business, it is not the same as yours because mine comes from Allah and Quran.

Yes, I know the verse from fifth grade .

I am of the opinion that the criteria for salvation for "any human" is given in Surah Al-Asr (103) where God himsels swears by time. It is simple to understand
- By the token of time
- Mankind is in Loss
- Except Those who believe, Those who do righteous deeds, Those speak the truth, and those who are patient
Belief in this verse is simply to believe in one GOD alone without any partners whatsoever. I dont think salvation requires any spiritual connection with any of the prophets or messengers. For e.g Unitarian christians dont believe Jesus was God or son of God. They believe in ONE GOD only and that Jesus was sent by that God as a messenger. Having said this, if these people are not following their life the way it is prescribed in the Quran, they will be questioned about it but as long as they fulfill the requirements given in verse 4, they are on the right path.

if you know the verses why do you ignore them then and claim something else?
I am not ignoring the and if I have said why you'll be creating threads and insulting me, so I prefer from now and over avoid speaking with you in Quran as it seems that you don't differ black from white .

You are the one creating threads all over this board and insulting people. You have to avoid speaking to me and a few others because you are fighting a losing battle here and you will never win any argument against Quran Only. And if you think for one second that because you dont reply that I will stop finding holes in your arguments you are very very mistaken.

Yes , go ahead find mistakes, I'll learn from them . But are you going to learn from your ignorance ? No .
As for win, I already won .
