Will all Non-Muslims be Condemned to Hell?
Question asked by Rajesh.
Posted on: Thursday, March 15, 2007 - Hits: 1261

Question:
I am Rajesh.I am from India.I am a hindu. I want to ask a simple question. Lets suppose that there are two persons A & B.

A is a non-muslim who does not worship Allah . But he is a very very good person. He helps the poor, he helps all people around him in need, he loves all his neighbours. In other words, this person has all good qualities except for praying to Allah

B is a muslim who does worships Allah very much. He offers the prayer 5 times a day. But this person is very very bad . He is selfish. He does not help poor and is a thief.

Now my question is...

According to ur holy quran, which of the two persons will go to Heaven and why? Which of them will go to Hell and why?

Answer:
We believe that each individual has been put through a test in life. It is what is done and practiced with sincerity and devotion which counts. If a non Muslim truly and sincerely believes in what he believes to be the truth and diligently practices it, the Almighty will not punish him for this even if it is not the actual truth. However, he must be convinced that other contesting views to the truth are incorrect to the best of his intellect. He should not ignore and dismiss them without reasoning. Similarly, a Muslim who does not fulfill the basic obligations of Islam which include fulfilling the rights of both God and his fellow human beings cannot be expected to qualify for Heaven.
