Universal Reality

Universality

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, Noah and Abraham to Moses and Jesus, 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.
