In the Name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Only One Religion
Young Enlightened Submitters
God is telling us in Quran:
[3:19] The only religion approved by GOD is "Submission.
[42:13] He decreed for you the same religion decreed for Noah, and what we inspired to you, and what we decreed for Abraham, Jesus and Moses: You shall uphold this religion do not divide it.
God's religion has always been one and the same. God has sent His messengers with the same message for us -
God's prophets like Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad brought the same message and religion -
Quran
[4:146] Only those who repent, reform, hold fast to GOD, and devote their religion absolutely to GOD alone, will be counted with the believers.
[39:3] Absolutely, the religion shall be devoted to GOD alone.
[39:14] Say, "GOD is the only One I worship, devoting my religion absolutely to Him alone.
[30:30] Therefore, you shall devote yourself to the religion of strict monotheism. Such is the natural instinct placed into the people by GOD. Such creation of GOD will never change. This is the perfect religion, but most people do not know.
[40:65] He is the Living; there is no god except He. You shall worship Him alone, devoting your religion absolutely to Him alone. Praise be to GOD, Lord of the universe.
God's religion is very simple and it is very easy. We should devote ourselves only to God. The way to devote ourselves to God is to follow and obey His words. God has given us His words in His final book - the Quran. If we obey the words in the Quran, we are practicing God's religion. If we do not follow His words in the Quran then we are not practicing God's religion.
