In
the Qur'an, Allah says:
"We have sent you (Muhammad
) as a mercy
for all nations." [21:107]
Thus Islam is not
restricted to any particular race or nation, as many other
religions are, but is universal, meaning that its message applies
to all humanity, at all times, in all places.
Since Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was the last prophet
and messenger, his message applies to all future generations. All
previous prophets, from Adam(pbuh), Noah(pbuh) and Abraham(pbuh)
to Moses(pbuh) and Jesus(pbuh), were also Muslims:
"Not a single messenger did We send before you without this inspiration sent by Us to him - that there is no god but I, therefore worship and serve Me." [21:25]
Since the Qur'an is the
final testament, with every word and every letter unadulterated
and unchanged, and protected by Allah from any change or
tampering, it is the final revelation, and no other law will ever
supersede it.
It applies, moreover, to
every aspect of one's daily life, including personal, social,
legal, economic, political, even military. Furthermore, Islam
affects every part of the individual - physical, mental,
emotional, and spiritual.
