Freedom to believe

 

A Youth Quranic Study in O.C. Mosque

 

Religion must be practiced freely as stated in the Quran frequently. God does not want robots who merely give faith lip service. God does not care what you call yourself-in His eyes those who believe fit the description in 2:62 and 5:69

[Quran : 2:62] Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.

God tells us to allow people to have the choice to believe or disbelieve.

[18:29] Proclaim: "This is the truth from your Lord," then whoever wills let him believe, and whoever wills let him disbelieve...........

[10:99] Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed.* Do you want to force the people to become believers?

[2:256] There shall be no compulsion in religion: the right way is now distinct from the wrong way. Anyone who denounces the devil and believes in GOD has grasped the strongest bond; one that never breaks. GOD is Hearer, Omniscient.

[88:21-22] You shall remind, for your mission is to deliver this reminder. You have no power over them.

[109:1-6] Say, "O you disbelievers. "I do not worship what you worship. "Nor do you worship what I worship. "Nor will I ever worship what you worship. "Nor will you ever worship what I worship. "To you is your religion, and to me is my religion."

[2:148] Each of you chooses the direction to follow; you shall race towards righteousness. Wherever you may be, GOD will summon you all. GOD is Omnipotent.

[ 25:57] Say, "I do not ask you for any money. All I seek is to help you find the right path to your Lord, if this is what you choose."

[ 73:19] This (Quran) is a reminder; whoever wills, let him choose the path to his Lord.

[74:35-37] This is one of the great miracles.A warning to the human race.For those among you who wish to advance, or regress.

[76:29] This is a reminder: whoever wills shall choose the path to his Lord.
