Allah states that He sent His Messenger Muhammad with the guidance and the religion
of truth to all the people of the earth, the Arabs and non-Arabs, lettered and unlettered.
Allah also states that He sent Muhammad with clear evidences and the distinction
between truth and falsehood. Allah said,
﴿يَـأَهْلَ الْكِتَـبِ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ
رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ كَثِيراً مِّمَّا كُنتُمْ تُخْفُونَ مِنَ الْكِتَـبِ وَيَعْفُواْ
عَن كَثِيرٍ﴾
(O People of the Scripture! Now has come to you Our Messenger explaining to you
much of that which you used to hide from the Scripture and passing over much.) So
the Prophet explained where they altered, distorted, changed and lied about Allah.
He also ignored much of what they changed, since it would not bring about any benefit
if it was explained. In his Mustadrak, Al-Hakim recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "He
who disbelieves in stoning (the adulterer to death) will have inadvertently disbelieved
in the Qur'an, for Allah said,
﴿يَـأَهْلَ الْكِتَـبِ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ
رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ كَثِيراً مِّمَّا كُنتُمْ تُخْفُونَ مِنَ الْكِتَـبِ﴾
(O People of the Scripture! Now has come to you Our Messenger explaining to you
much of that which you used to hide from the Scripture) and stoning was among the
things that they used to hide.'' Al-Hakim said, "Its chain is Sahih, and they did
not record it.'' Allah next mentions the Glorious Qur'an that He sent down to His
honorable Prophet ,
﴿قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ مِّنَ اللَّهِ نُورٌ
وَكِتَـبٌ مُّبِينٌيَهْدِى بِهِ اللَّهُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ رِضْوَانَهُ سُبُلَ السَّلَـمِ﴾
(Indeed, there has come to you from Allah a light and a plain Book. Wherewith Allah
guides all those who seek His pleasure to ways of peace.) meaning, ways of safety
and righteousness,
﴿وَيُخْرِجُهُمْ مِّنِ الظُّلُمَـتِ
إِلَى النُّورِ بِإِذْنِهِ وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى صِرَطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ﴾
(and He brings them out of darkness by His permission unto light and guides them
to a straight path.) He thus saves them from destruction and explains to them the
best, most clear path. Therefore, He protects them from what they fear, and brings
about the best of what they long for, all the while ridding them of misguidance
and directing them to the best, most righteous state of being.
﴿لَّقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ
قَآلُواْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ قُلْ فَمَن يَمْلِكُ مِنَ اللَّهِ
شَيْئاً إِنْ أَرَادَ أَن يُهْلِكَ الْمَسِيحَ ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُ وَمَن فِى
الاٌّرْضِ جَمِيعاً وَللَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا يَخْلُقُ
مَا يَشَآءُ وَاللَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ -وَقَالَتِ الْيَهُودُ
وَالنَّصَـرَى نَحْنُ أَبْنَاءُ اللَّهِ وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ قُلْ فَلِمَ يُعَذِّبُكُم بِذُنُوبِكُم
بَلْ أَنتُمْ بَشَرٌ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَآءُ
وَللَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَإِلَيْهِ الْمَصِيرُ

(17. Surely, in disbelief are they who say that Allah is the Messiah, son of Maryam.
Say: "Who then has the least power against Allah, if He were to destroy the Messiah,
son of Maryam, his mother, and all those who are on the earth together'' And to
Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between
them. He creates what He wills. And Allah is able to do all things.) (18. And the
Jews and the Christians say: "We are the children of Allah and His loved ones.''
Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins'' Nay, you are but human beings
of those He has created, He forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills.
And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between
them; and to Him is the return (of all).
