Re: Disbelievers of Islam will be going to Hell?
“Nay, but whosoever submits completely himself to Allah and does good, his reward is with his Lord; and there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve.” (Al-Baqarah 2:112)
As apparent from this verse, to be a Muslim means to submit oneself completely to Allah’s will and carve one’s life according to the law sent down by Him. The word Muhsin means to be honest and determined in following the commandments of the Almighty. As a result, the definition of being a true Muslim in the sight of Allah is quite different from being known as such in this world. It is these true Muslims who have been promised a reward in the Hereafter, and not those who are called Muslims in this world.
Therefore, it is very much possible that someone who is not known to us as a Muslim may be standing amongst Muslims on the Day of Judgment based on their correct beliefs and their good deeds in this world. At the same time, it is also very much possible that someone from amongst Muslims may be amongst the rejecters of faith because of their not following Islam completely and not performing good deeds. Consequently, one cannot deny the possibility that someone called a Muslim in this world may turn out to be the one who is thrown into the Hellfire and made to stay in it forever, because for instance he ‘did evil and his sin surrounded him.’ (Al-Baqarah 2:81)
