surah al-baqarah ayat 131 - 140


When his Lord said to him, "Submit!" He said, "I have submitted to the Lord of the Worlds."


And Abraham exhorted his sons, and Jacob, "O my sons, Allah has chosen this religion for you, so do not die unless you have submitted."


Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob, and he said to his sons, "What will you worship after Me?" They said, "We will worship your Allah, and the Allah of your fathers, Abraham, Ishmael, and Isaac; One Allah; and to Him we submit."


That was a community that has passed; for them is what they have earned, and for you is what you have earned; and you will not be questioned about what they used to do.


And they say, "Be Jews or Christians, and you will be guided." Say, "Rather, the religion of Abraham, the Monotheist; he was not an idolater."


Say, "We believe in Allah; and in what was revealed to us; and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs; and in what was given to Moses and Jesus; and in what was given to the prophets—from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we surrender."


If they believe in the same as you have believed in, then they have been guided. But if they turn away, then they are in schism. Allah will protect you against them; for He is the Hearer, the Knower.


Allah's coloring. And who gives better coloring than Allah? "And we are devoted to Him."


Say, "Do you argue with us about Allah, when He is our Lord and your Lord, and We have our works, and you have your works, and we are sincere to Him?"


Or do you say that Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs were Jews or Christians? Say, "Do you know better, or Allah?" And who does greater wrong than he who conceals a testimony he has from Allah? Allah is not unaware of what you do.
