me; unto him ye shall hearken" (Deut, xviii. 15). And Christ promised a Comforter (John. xiv. 16; xv. 26; and xvi. 7; see<br />

my n. 5438 to lxi. 6) almost by name. The People of the Book fell from the true, straight, and standard religion, into<br />

devious ways, and would not come to the true Path until (they said) they were convinced by the arrival of the promised<br />

Prophet. But when the promised Prophet came in the person of Muhammad, they rejected him, because they really did<br />

not seek for Truth but only followed their own fancies and desires. (98.1)<br />

6222 The Polytheists, the Pagans, had not previously believed in any scriptures. But yet, when clear evidence came to them,<br />

they should have believed. Yet they rejected the holy Prophet because they were not really searching for Truth, but were<br />

only following their own fancies and desires. (98.1)<br />

6223 The Clear Evidence was the holy Prophet himself, his life, his personality, and his teaching. (98.1)<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.850 Narrated by<br />

Ubaidullah bin Abdullah bin Utba<br />

Ibn Abbas said, "O Muslims? How do you ask the people of the Scriptures, though your Book (i.e. the Qur'an) which was<br />

revealed to His Prophet is the most recent information from Allah and you recite it, the Book that has not been distorted?<br />

Allah has revealed to you that the people of the Scriptures have changed with their own hands what was revealed to them<br />

and they have said (as regards their changed Scriptures): This is from Allah, in order to get some worldly benefit thereby." Ibn<br />

Abbas added: "Isn't the knowledge revealed to you sufficient to prevent you from asking them? By Allah I have never seen<br />

any one of them asking (Muslims) about what has been revealed to you."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 2.1<br />

Narrated by<br />

Abu Huraira<br />

I heard Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) saying, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on<br />

the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was<br />

their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So<br />

Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews'<br />

(holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians' (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday)."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 1.97A Narrated by<br />

Abu Burdas father<br />

Allah's Apostle said "Three persons will have a double reward:<br />

1. A Person from the people of the scriptures who believed in his prophet (Jesus or Moses) and then believed in the<br />

Prophet Muhammad (i.e. has embraced Islam).<br />

2. A slave who discharges his duties to Allah and his master.<br />

3. A master of a woman-slave who teaches her good manners and educates her in the best possible way (the religion)<br />

and manumits her and then marries her."<br />

World of Islam<br />

How does someone become a Muslim?<br />

Simply by saying 'There is no god apart from God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.' By this declaration the believer<br />

announces his or her faith in all God's messengers, and the scriptures they brought.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 5.281 Narrated by<br />

Ibn Abbas<br />

They, the people of the Scriptures, divided this Scripture into parts, believing in some portions of it and disbelieving the<br />

others. (See 15.91)<br />
