Islam as the true religion above all others
Page 111
All praise be to Allah who has chosen Islam as the religion for the people of Muhammad (peace be upon him), made the Shari`ah (Islamic law) of Muhammad (peace be upon him) the last and the most perfect one and sent it upon His best creation Muhammad (peace be upon him).
I have read what was published in Al Youm Newspaper, issue no. (4080), dated 12/8/1404 A.H. in the last page under the title which reads, "A Strange Temple for Sikhism in the Emirates reported from Al­Khalij news agency. This piece of news stated the following: (It has been indicated by one of the Muslim Scholars in Dubai Dr. Mahmud Ibrahim Al­Dik that this temple represents a serious danger for Muslims and should be removed. He proceeded saying, "Truly, the religions permitted in the Emirates are only those with a Divine Book but other religion are false creeds whose temples should be destroyed and whose rituals should be prohibited from being practiced lest they should affect Muslims on this very land." End of his words.
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.
Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, then surely, Allâh is Swift in calling to account.
So if they dispute with you (Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﺳﻠﻢ) say: "I have submitted myself to Allâh (in Islâm), and (so have) those who follow me." And say to those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and to those who are illiterates (Arab pagans): "Do you (also) submit yourselves (to Allâh in Islâm)?" If they do, they are rightly guided; but if they turn away, your duty is only to convey the Message; and Allâh is All­Seer of (His) slaves.
A n­Nasa'iy narratedthat the Prophet (peace be upon him) saw in the hand of `Umar Ibn Al­Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) a page from the Tawrah (Torah). Thereupon, he said, "Are you skeptical about it? O Ibn Al­Khattab! Verily, I have brought this (religion) to you, bright and pure; and if Musa (Moses) were alive then you followed him and abandoned me, you would have been astray."
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "No one hears of me from this Ummah (nation), whether a Jew or a Christian, and then dies without believing in what I have been sent with but he will be among the dwellers of Hellfire." This Hadith was narrated by Muslim in his Sahih.
