The Foundations And Concepts of Islam

“He said, ‘O my people: Tell me, if I am (acting) on a clear proof from my Lord, and there has come to me a mercy (Prophethood) from Him, who will save me from Allaah if I disobey Him?’”[80]

He says about the Qur’aan,

“And We send down of the Qur’aan that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe.”[81]

Seven: It should entail guidance to the Law of Allaah, and teach man the intention of Allaah by that Law. It should also be able to tell man his origin and his final destination. Allaah says about the Torah,

“Verily, We did send down the Torah, therein was guidance and light.”[82]

He says about the Injeel (the Book given to Eesaa),

“And We gave him the Injeel, in which was guidance and light.”[83]

He says about the Qur’aan,

“It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth.”[84]

The true religion is the one that includes guidance to the Law of Allaah, gives peace and tranquillity to the mind, protect it from all insinuations, answers all its questions and resolves every problem.
