Topic: Islam: THE ONLY TRUE RELIGION

BECOMING A MUSLIM
A person becomes a Muslim by leaving all that contradicts the meaning of the following Two Testifications of Faith, believing in the heart and declaring with the tongue(4)
.
"No one deserves worship but God, the Creator. And Muhammad is the Messenger of God"

4 Saying any statement equivalent to the Two Testifications of Faith in any language is also valid.

Believing in all this implies that: Allah, the Creator, has perfect attributes; only Allah must be worshipped; Prophet Muhammad ? ? ? , the last prophet, was truthful in all that he conveyed from Allah; all the prophets, peace be upon them, before him (the first of whom was Adam) conveyed the same message of belief to their people; they are to be loved and respected, yet in no way do prophets (or any creation) have Allah's attributes.
A person can become Muslim, as aforementioned, in the solitude of a forest or in a crowded subway; he does not need to go to a mosque or have Muslims witness his profession. Allah knows the hearts of His creation. However, when the person becomes Muslim, he may declare his belief to some fellow Muslims so that he will be known as a Muslim among the people.
Don't hesitate to embrace Islam; it is the gateway to success. To anyone who becomes Muslim while reading this booklet, we advise you to seek knowledge as to the practice of Islam from a trustworthy Muslim teacher. As people go to college to be taught by those knowledgeable about different subjects, one must go to a learned Muslim to learn about the practice of Islam. For a devoted Muslim, there will always be more to learn and more ways to improve; so arrogance is not a part of a good Muslim's life.
All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the heavens and earth. Allah knows best.

ISLAM, THE TRUE RELIGION

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. May Allah raise the rank of our master Muhammad ? ? ? and his Al and Companions and protect his nation from that which he fears for it.
Allah
Everything that exists, except Allah the Creator, is created by Him(1). Allah has full power over every bit of His creation. Allah is not created; He existed always, having His attributes. Allah will never perish, nor will His attributes diminish. The attributes of Allah are uncountable, among which are: He has knowledge of all His creation; He sees the seeable things; and He hears the hearable things. His knowing, seeing and hearing are in no way similar to ours. Allah's Kalam (Speech) is not made up of language or sound, nor does it resemble the speech of man in any way. Allah does not need any of His creation for His existence and He does not resemble any of His creation in any way. This means that Allah is not a man or a woman; He is not "a Father" or "a Mother". Allah does not have a wife, a mother, a father, a son, or a daughter; He has no equal or partner. Allah does not divide into parts. No creation has "a part of Allah " in him, nor can any creation become like Allah. He is the only God.
Allah existed eternally before He created any of the places, such as Paradise, the skies, Earth, or the planets. Hence, we know Allah is now as He was before He created all these places; He does not need any place for His existence. Allah has always known about every part of His creation; there is no thing in His creation which escapes His knowledge or defeats Him. No thing goes against the will of Allah . Both good and evil occur by Allah's will. However, Allah orders humans to do only the good; humans make the choice to obey or disobey Allah. Our ability to do good or evil is given to us by Allah, the Exalted.

(1 The words "He", "His", and "Him" used in reference to Allah must not be construed to refer to gender)

Other prophets before Muhammad include: Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Joseph (son of Jacob), David, Solomon, Moses, and Jesus, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon all of them.
The true scriptures were Revelations received by the prophets. Moses and Jesus both received scriptures, but what are now called the Torah and the Bible have been tampered with by man and are not the true Revelations received by the great messengers Moses and Jesus. The only scripture which is unchanged and will never be changed is the Qur'an, which is the scripture Allah revealed to Muhammad ? ? ? , His last prophet, in clear and eloquent Arabic. Allah has promised to protect the Qur'an from any changes by man. Hence, it has remained unchanged since it was revealed some 1400 years ago. Unlike the prophets before him who were sent to a particular people, Muhammad was sent to all people who would lived at his time and all people who would live after him until the Day of Judgment.
THE DAY OF JUDGMENT
On a day which only Allah knows (not even the angels or prophets know it), Allah will make all the creatures who are still living on the Earth and in the skies die (including Satan and other devils and angels). Then Allah will resurrect them all. Then He will judge humans and jinn on what they did during their lives. They will be rewarded or punished, by Allah's will, for what they believed, said, and did by their own choice.

PARADISE
Those of mankind and jinn who believe corrrectly in Allah, and believe in the Messenger sent to them and profess their belief (i.e., becoming followers of the true Religion) and die with that status will dwell forever in Paradise, which Allah has created for them. The life in Paradise is better than what any human living on Earth can imagine. Those in Paradise will experience it in body and soul, but the body will be a new body with no defects. Paradise is not allegorical. It is a very real and actual place. Therein will be wonderful riches, foods, joys, and peace. People will be married and have interaction with one another. Those in Paradise will be in various ranks according to their piety. Those who are rewarded with Paradise will never be sent out of it.

Dear amar

Prophets peace be upon them, came and were given the responsibilities to call all people at their time to Islam. so everyone who lived at each prophets time and heard about him were to believe in Allah and that the prophet of their time( Adam, Noah, Jacob, Moses, ....) is the messenger of Allah and follow his religion rules... plus they have to believe in all prophets who came before him too.

So if I understood your question right, then all prophet came to all humans regardless of there ethnic origin.
