Is Islam Was or Was Not....

Re: Is Islam Was or Was Not…

@hanibal

1. When i say these religions were denounced/rejected, No they were not. You are contradicting here when you say they were valid before prophet Muhammad came.

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

**Not true. I think you keep confusing yourself here. If you separate people not following the earlier relgions from those who used to follow these religions then you will be cleared. **

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.

So this means religions were not rejected, people’s actions were rejected. I gave you answer why Islam came above. Not to bring a new religion altogether but to bring back same basic teachings.

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before the Islam arrived and not after Islam… and not those who insisted to follow the book which according to Quran is no longer valid…

**Again, bahi sahab, earlier religions were not considered invalid. A basic concept which you may need to consider here is same Allah brought earlier religions so how come he would reject those? **

The example of computer is valid if you understand one thing here as below.

Yes people may use older versions of windows to get by doing some functions, but with the improved windows version you may be able to use newer softwares/hardwares etc. better to be successful.

Hence the improvement (islam) helps achieve salvation. And older religions NOW are not to be followed despite older religions still are considered valid if found.

In short, being non-functional/obsolete does not mean invalid.
