Qur'an 20081104

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

135. They say, "Become Jews or Christians if you would be guided." Say thou, "Nay! The Religion of Abraham, the True, and he joined not gods with Allah."

136. Say ye, "We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abaham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the descendents, and that given to Moses, and Jesus, and that given to Prophets from their Lord. We make no difference between one and another of them, and we bow to Allah."

137. So if they believe as you believe, they are indeed on the right path: but if they turn back, it is they who are in a schism. But Allah will suffice you as against them, and God is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

138. The Color of Allah: and who can color better than Allah? And it is God whom we worship.

139. Say, "Will you dispute with us about Allah, seeing that God is our Lord and your Lord: that we are responsible for our doings and you for yours, and that we are sincere to God?"

140. Or so you say that Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the descendents were Jews and Christians? Say, "Do you know better than Allah?" Ah! Who is more unjust than those who conceal the testimony they have from Allah? But Allah is not unmindful of what you do!

The Heifer 2:135-140

Nay! The Religion of Abraham, the True, and he joined not gods with Allah.

We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abaham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the descendents, and that given to Moses, and Jesus, and that given to Prophets from their Lord. We make no difference between one and another of them, and we bow to Allah.

Will you dispute with us about Allah, seeing that God is our Lord and your Lord: that we are responsible for our doings and you for yours, and that we are sincere to God?

Do you know better than Allah?

25:57 Say, "No reward do I ask of you for this, save that whosoever wills may take a Path to his Lord."

No reward do I ask of you for this, save that whosoever wills may take a Path to his Lord.
