"And this was the legacy that Abrah left to his sons, and so did Iacob:
"O my sons! Allah has chosen the Faith for you; then die not except in
the faith of Islam."
[The Holy Quran Surah Al-Baqara, Chapter 2 Verse 132]
All the Prophets who came before the Last Prophet Muhammad(SAW), and including latter,
invited people to accept Islam and nothing else than Islam. Whether it is Abraham or Jacob, whether
it is Moses or Jesus, all of them believed in same faith. Therefore, it is the duty of every Muslim to
believe in all these Prophets, to respect them equally and to realise it that rejection of any one of these
Prophets would mean the rejection of all, including the Last Prophet Muhammad(PBUH). All these
Prophets laid it down as their last will to the inmates of their house tat they should die as the follower
of Islam, that is, in a state of obediance to God.
