Characteristics Of True Religion

These are the three basic components of what logic and reason dictate necessary for a religion to be considered the true religion of God. Origin of the names of the religion and the comprehensiveness of its meaning. The unique and uncomplicated teachings concerning the relationship between God, man, and creation. The third argument derives from the fact that Islam is universally attainable by all men at all times.

The Religion's Name The religion should not be named after a person or people, nor was it decided by a later generation of man, as in the case of Christianity Jesus Christ Buddhism Gautama Buddha Hinduism the Hindus Islam is the religion which was given to Adam Its name was chosen by God Himself and clearly mentioned in the final scripture which He revealed to man, Allah states that: "This day I have perfectly completed religion for you and completed My favour upon you and I have chosen Islam for you as religion." (Al-Qur'an 5:3)

God and Creation The basic message of God's religion is “The total submission of one's will to God represents the spirit of worship” AND “only Islam, is the worship of God alone” It also requires the avoidance of worship directed to any person, place or thing other than God “the Creator of all things” Islam, in essence, calls man away from worship of creation and invites him to worship only His Creator. “He is the only one deserving of man's worship, because it is only by His will that prayers are answered”

Universality of God's Religion Islam does not claim to be a new religion brought by Prophet Muhammad into Arabia in the seventh century But rather to be a re-expression in its final form of the true religion of Almighty God, Allah. Within the central principle of Islam and its definition “the surrender of one's will to God” lie the roots of Islam's universality.
