As'salamu Alaikum dear brothers,
Islam is the One and ONLY Religion of GOD Almighty. However, Allah Almighty sent it in different forms and flavors, all similar and having the same fundamental Divine Message:
[005:048] To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety: so judge between them by what God hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have we prescribed a law and an open way لكل جعلنا منكم شرعة ومنهاجا. If God had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to God; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;5:48 وانزلنا اليك الكتاب بالحق مصدقا لما بين يديه من الكتاب ومهيمنا عليه فاحكم بينهم بما انزل الله ولاتتبع اهواءهم عما جاءك من الحق
لكل جعلنا منكم شرعة ومنهاجا
ولو شاء الله لجعلكم امة واحدة ولكن ليبلوكم فيما اتاكم فاستبقوا الخيرات الى الله مرجعكم جميعا فينبئكم بما كنتم فيه تختلفون
Notice in this Noble Verse:
1- Allah Almighty made for each people their own Law and Way.
2- Allah Almighty chose not to make us all one single people:
"...If God had so willed, He would have made you a single people..."For more, please visit:
