3:96 – The Quran

Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not
differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves.
And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah , then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account. 3:19

And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him,
and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers. 3:85

In fact, your religion is one religion, and I am your only Lord: so fear Me Alone. 23:52

QURAN
This (The Qur’an) is nothing but a Reminder to all the people of the world. 68:52

This Book (The Qur’an) which We have sent down to you (O Muhammad) is highly blessed, so that
they may ponder upon its verses and the men of understanding may learn a lesson from it. 38:29

But as to those who disbelieved, Allah will say: “Were My verses not recited to you?
But you showed arrogance and became a people of criminals”. 45:31

QURAN
Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muhammad],
are not [associated] with them in anything. Their affair is only [left] to Allah ;
then He will inform them about what they used to do. 6:159

But the people have divided their religion into sects between them- to Us they shall
all return. 21:93

QURAN
Those who divide their religion into sects and become separate groups, each group rejoicing
in its own circle. 30:32

But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction,
in what it has, rejoicing. 23:53

But leave them in their confused ignorance for a time. 23:54

QURAN
Say: “That (this Quran) is a great news, 38:67

“This ( Quran) is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds. 38:87

This (the Quran) is but a Message to all the people of the world, 81:27

QURAN

whoever kills a person, except as a punishment for murder or mischief in the land, it will be written in his
book of deeds as if he had killed all the human beings on the surface of the Earth and whoever will
save a life shall be regarded as if he gave life to all the human beings on the surface of the Earth. 5:32

Say, "O People of the Scripture, do not exceed limits in your religion beyond the truth and do not follow
the inclinations of a people who had gone astray before and misled many and have strayed from the
soundness of the way." 5:77

Quran
You shall not kill anyone whom Allah has forbidden, except for just cause under the law. If anyone is killed unjustly,
We have granted the right of retribution to his heir, but let him not carry his vengeance too far in killing
the culprit through taking the law in his own hands, as he is supported by the law. 17:33

On that Day those leaders who were being followed, when faced with their punishment,
will renounce those who followed them and the bonds which united them will break asunder. 2:166

Quran
And likewise, to many of the polytheists their partners have made [to seem] pleasing the killing of their
children in order to bring about their destruction and to cover them with confusion in their religion.
And if Allah had willed, they would not have done so. So leave them and that which they invent. 6:137

And do not kill your children for fear of poverty. We provide for them and for you. Indeed,
their killing is ever a great sin. 17:31

Quran
Just imagine the scene of that Day when We shall call every community with their respective Imams (leaders):
then those who will be given their 'book of deeds' in their right hand will read it with pleasure and
they will not be wronged in the least. 17:71

But those who have played blind in this world will be blind in the hereafter, rather worse than blind
in finding the Way to Salvation. 17:72

Quran

Quran

[Jesus said], “And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path.” 19:36

[Jesus] said, “Indeed, I am the servant of Allah . He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.19:30

There is none of the People of the Book but will believe in this fact before his death; and on the Day of Resurrection
Jesus will bear witness against them.. 4:159

And indeed, Jesus will be [a sign for] knowledge of the Hour (Day of Resurrection), so be not in doubt of it, and follow Me.
This is a straight path. 43:61
Quran

When Isa (Jesus) came with clear signs, he stated: “I have brought you wisdom,
and to clarify some of those things about which you have disputes:
so fear Allah and obey me. 43:63

And remember when Isa (Jesus) the son of Maryam said: “O children of Israel!
I am the Messenger of Allah towards you, confirming the Torah which came before
me, and to give you good news of a Messenger that will come after me whose name shall
be Ahmed (another name of Muhammad, meaning ‘The praised one’).” But when
he (Muhammad) came to them with clear signs, they said “This is plain magic.” 61:6
Quran

O you who believe [in Musa (Moses) (i.e. Jews) and ‘Iesa (Jesus) (i.e. Christians)]! Fear Allah, and believe too
in His Messenger (Muhammad), He will give you a double portion of His Mercy, and He will give you a
light by which you shall walk (straight), and He will forgive you. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 57:28

Then in the footsteps of those Prophets, We sent Isa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary) confirming whatever
remained intact from the Taurat (Torah) in his time, and gave him the Injeel (Gospel) wherein was guidance
and light, corroborating what was revealed in the Taurat (Torah); a guidance and an admonition to those
who fear Allah. 5:46
Quran

When the angels said “O Maryem (Mary)! Allah gives you the good news with a Word from Him that you will be given a son:
his name will be Messiah, Isa (Jesus Christ) the son of Maryem. He will be noble in this world and the Hereafter;
and he will be from those who are very close to Allah 3:45

Hearing this, Maryem said, “O my Lord! How can I have a son when no man has ever touched me?” He replied, “Even so, Allah creates
however He wants; whenever He decides to do anything, He only says it to ‘Be’ and it is!. 3:47

And will make him ['Iesa (Jesus)] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], ‘Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your
Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allah .
And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead – by permission of Allah . And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses.
Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers. 3:49

Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muhammad], are not [associated] with them in anything. Their affair is only [left] to Allah ; then He will inform them about what they used to do. 6:159

But the people have divided their religion into sects between them- to Us they shall all return. 21:93

In fact, your religion is one religion, and I am your only Lord: so fear Me Alone. 23:52

But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing. 23:53

But leave them in their confused ignorance for a time. 23:54
