Surah 3 · Verse 85

Whoever follows other than peace/peaceful surrender as a system, it will not be accepted from him, and in the Hereafter he is of the losers.

Translation endnotes

[3:85] Some critics claim there is a contradiction between 3:85, or 5:72 and 2:62, or 5:69. The critic assumes that peacefully surrendering to God is only possible by uttering a magic Arabic word. Islam is not a proper name. It did not start with Muhammed, nor did it end with Muhammed. Any person, regardless of the name of their religion, who dedicates himself to God alone, believes in the day of judgment and lives a righteous life, is considered Muslim (those who peacefully surrender themselves to God alone and promote peace). Many among the Christians and Jews fit this description.
