Re: Is Islam Was or Was Not…

@diwana

Hanibal bhai, with respect due, I disagree with your posts above. I understand where you might be cong from but your line of thinking needs Wish I had time to tacke all the points.

In first post yo said all other reigions were rejected. Not true.

But then in next post you said people were going stray hence they were given ‘new’ relgion.
Now if yo say that people were going away from earlier teachings then bringing them Islam is not really rejecting other religions but giving them same earlier teachngs as a refresher with refinement of some methods, laws and day to day affair. Basics did not change however, so we can’t call Islam a NEW RELIGION at all.

Hope you got it.

If still not convinced then please read this:

[2:62] Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.

Quran clearly does not reject these religions.

So how can you say that bhai sahab?

Note: The translation here is somewhat different from other sources, so please search more on your own. The essence is same though.

1. When i say these religions were denounced/rejected, then i meant that after Islam was introduced and Prophet (SAAW) started inviting people towards Islam…and henceforth, none of the religion after introduction of Islam is legal or on the right path

2. When i say these religions went astray, i meant, that none of the religion was left in real shape, all the divine books were compromised, and anyone seeking for the right religion wouldn’t have found one, That is one the reasons why Prophet Mohammad (SAAW) was sent.

3. The Aya you have posted is about people who had been there before the Islam arrived and not after Islam… and not those who insisted to follow the book which according to Quran is no longer valid…
