Question regarding 2:62 and 3:85
-
Salam, peace
I was studying the Quran when I came across this verse.
Monotheist Translation
"And whoever follows other than submission as a system, it will not be accepted from him, and in the Hereafter, he is of the losers."
Does this mean the other religions will not be accepted by God?
What about 262?
"Surely, those who believe, and those who are Jewish, and the Nazarenes, and the Sabians, whoever of them believes in God and the Last Day and does good works, they will have their recompense with their Lord, and there is no fear upon them, nor will they grieve."
I'm really confused. I'd like to hear your opinions on this.
May God guide us all.

Peace,
All those religions are submission to God's system, so that is why 262 allows the others paradise too.
Christians, for example, is their own definition because they choose call themselves by this name. Christianity is submission, as long as you do not follow the blasphemy that came after Jesus died, that he was the part of a trinity.
God means monotheism by all this, believing in only one deity, Christians, Jews believe in the same God and submission system as Muslims, though some associate partners with him, thus not following God's system.
Islam, or submission, is not a proper name but a definition of those who accept God's system.
Hope I could help.
God is the best guide.
