Indeed, the religion which Allah approved for His creation and with which He sent His messengers, and He accepts no other, is Islam, and it is the submission to Allah alone through obedience and surrender to Him through servitude, and the following of the messengers in what Allah sent them with at every time until they were sealed with Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, after whose mission Allah does not accept from anyone a religion other than the Islam with which he was sent. And the difference did not occur among the People of the Book from the Jews and the Christians, so they split into sects and parties, except after the argument was established upon them by the sending of messengers and the sending down of books; out of transgression and envy, seeking the world. And whoever rejects the revealed verses of Allah and His verses indicating His Lordship and His divinity, then indeed Allah is swift in reckoning, and He will recompense them for what they used to do.
