Question

Title: Proving Islam to be the Only True Divine Religon Question: How can we prove to someone who is born 1400 years after the advent of Islam that Islam is the only true divine religion in the world? Qadeer Shahzad United Kingdom Answer: From the perspective of a Muslim, who desires to call people towards accepting Islam, we do not need to prove that Islam is the only true Divine religion in the world. On the contrary, all that we need to establish is that Islam is, in fact, based upon the latest Divine revelation, which was delivered to Muhammad (pbuh). Once the point that Islam is actually based upon Divine revelation is established in the minds of our addressees, it automatically becomes incumbent upon them - whether they are Jews, Christians or they ascribe to any other creed - to accept Islam, merely because the revelation to Muhammad (pbuh) was given after Abraham, Moses and Jesus (pbut) etc. The foregoing point raises another related question, which is: 'How can we establish that Islam is actually based upon Divine revelation?' I have addressed this question in one of my earlier responses to a related question titled " Evaluating Islam - as a Religion based on Divine Revelation ". I hope this helps.
