How will Allah Almighty Judge the non-Muslims? Should a person be a Muslim first to be accepted in Paradise by Allah Almighty?
- As long as the person believes in "Absolute One GOD" and does Righteousness, then he should be ok.
- So how will we be judged at Judgement Day? - So am I suggesting that there is no need to believe in the Noble Quran? Or there is no need to try to spread Islam to Unitarians such as the Jews?
- Conclusion.
As I read the Noble Quran almost everyday, I always gain more and more respect to this Wonderful True Religion of GOD Almighty. Humans today had so corrupted the beauty of believing in the Absolute One and Living GOD, that they no longer became certain of which path to take.
1- What is the Wisdom of Islam?
Islam is a very simple Religion. Islam simply means submitting yourself in peace to the Absolute One and Living GOD:
"Say: He is God, the One and Only; God, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him. (The Noble Quran, 112:1-4)"
"Then Praise be to Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth- Lord and Cherisher of all the worlds! To Him be Glory throughout the heavens and the earth: and He is Exalted in Power, Full of Wisdom!. (The Noble Quran, 45:36-37)"
"Say: 'O People of the Book (i.e., Jews and Christians)! Come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah.' If then they turn back, say ye: 'Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will).' (The Noble Quran, 3:64)"
The GOD of Islam is the GOD of everything He created. There is no middle man between the Creation and the Creator; "It was We Who Created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. (The Noble Quran, 50:16)"
"When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, Listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way. (The Noble Quran, 2:186)"
Allah Almighty knows what's in the heart and will judge us according to our intentions:
Let us look at Noble Verses 26:88-91 "The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail, But only he (will prosper) that brings to God a sound heart; to the righteous, the Garden will be brought near, and to those straying in Evil, the Fire will be placed in full view."
Allah Almighty created all mankind with different races, mentality and beliefs; "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other. Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well-acquainted. (The Noble Quran, 49:13)"
Anyone can gain the Love of Allah Almighty, which would eventually lead him to know His Creator and end up in Paradise under Him: "It is He Who has Created you ; and of you are some that are unbelievers, and some that are believers: And Allah sees well all that ye do. He has created the heavens and the earth in just portions, and has given you shape, and made your shapes beautiful: and to Him is the final Goal. He knows what is in the heavens and on earth; and He knows what ye conceal and what ye reveal: Allah Knows well the (secrets) of (all) hearts. (The Noble Quran, 64:2-4)"
He knows well that we need Him, and that we are nothing without Him and His guidance; "O ye men! It is ye that have need of Allah: but Allah is the One free of all wants, worthy of all praise. If He so pleased, He could blot you out and bring in a new creation, Nor is that difficult for Allah. (The Noble Quran, 35:15-17)"
Allah Almighty listens to our prayers; He is close and listens!
"When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, Listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way. (The Noble Quran, 2:186)"
The Wisdom of Islam is the same as the Wisdom of Moses' Tablets (the Ten Commandments) and the Golden Rule:
As we will see more elaborations further down in this article, if a person follows the Bible's Ten Commandments (except for the not working in the Sabbath one) and the Golden Rule (which is unfortunately not consistent in the Bible, but it is consistent in Islam), then he/she is a True Believer in GOD Almighty and he/she is a Righteous person. While nothing in the Noble Quran specifically says that we must follow the Bible's "Ten Commandments", but nonetheless, Moses' (peace be upon him) Tablets were mentioned in the Noble Quran, and they are believed to contain the Ten Commandments:
"And We ordained laws for him in the tablets in all matters, both commanding and explaining all things, (and said): "Take and hold these with firmness, and enjoin thy people to hold fast by the best in the precepts: soon shall I show you the homes of the wicked,- (How they lie desolate)." (The Noble Quran, 7:145)"
"When Moses came back to his people, angry and grieved, he said: "Evil it is that ye have done in my place in my absence: did ye make haste to bring on the judgment of your Lord?" He put down the tablets, seized his brother by (the hair of) his head, and dragged him to him. Aaron said: "Son of my mother! the people did indeed reckon me as naught, and went near to slaying me! Make not the enemies rejoice over my misfortune, nor count thou me amongst the people of sin." (The Noble Quran, 7:150)"
"When the anger of Moses was appeased, he took up the tablets: in the writing thereon was guidance and Mercy for such as fear their Lord. (The Noble Quran, 7:154)"
Also, all of the beautiful Wisdoms and Divine Commands that exist in the Bible's Ten Commandments do exist in the Noble Quran and they do make up the bottom line and the core beliefs of Islam. Not only that, but they are also considered "Light" by Allah Almighty:
"It was We who revealed the law (to Moses): therein was guidance and light. By its standard have been judged the Jews, by the prophets who bowed (as in Islam) to God's will, by the rabbis and the doctors of law: for to them was entrusted the protection of God's book, and they were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear me, and sell not my signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what God hath revealed, they are (no better than) Unbelievers. (The Noble Quran, 5:44)"
"Of the people of Moses (i.e., the Jews) there is a section who guide and do justice in the light of truth. (The Noble Quran, 7:159)"
