Dear Reader:
According to Islamic teachings, one who becomes a Muslim would receive a great reward. God, the Exalted, says: “Those to whom We gave the Scripture before it - they are believers in it. And when it is recited to them, they say, "We have believed in it; indeed, it is the truth from our Lord. Indeed we were, [even] before it, Muslims [submitting to Allah]." Those will be given their reward twice for what they patiently endured and [because] they avert evil through good, and from what We have provided them they spend.” (28:52-54)
Another reward promised is in the words of the Prophet, may God praise him: “Islam would efface all sins performed before it.” (Muslim)
The third reward is in the words of God, the Exalted, where He informs us that He will replace one’s sins with good works if they accept Islam. He says: “Those who repent, believe and do righteous work; for them Allah will replace their evil deeds with good. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (25:68-70)
In the end, we simply say that we hope that you will be guided to the truth!
What Is Islam?
