Surah Al-Baqarah (2:62)

اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَالَّذِيۡنَ هَادُوۡا وَالنَّصٰرٰى وَالصّٰبِـِٕـيۡنَ مَنۡ اٰمَنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَالۡيَوۡمِ الۡاٰخِرِ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًـا فَلَهُمۡ اَجۡرُهُمۡ عِنۡدَ رَبِّهِمۡۚ وَلَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُوۡنَ‏ ۝

Inna allatheena amanoo wallatheenahadoo wannasara wassabi-eenaman amana biAllahi walyawmi al-akhiriwaAAamila salihan falahum ajruhum AAinda rabbihimwala khawfun AAalayhim wala hum yahzanoon

Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans before Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ) - those among them who believed in Allāh and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Pluralism of Sincerity: Salvation is based on sincere faith and good deeds, regardless of label.

The Insight

This is a crucial verse affirming that all who sincerely believe in God and the Last Day and act righteously—regardless of their historical label (Jew, Christian, Sabian)—will be rewarded. Focus on the core of faith. Salvation depends on pure monotheism, certainty in the Hereafter, and righteous conduct, not merely the name or title one holds today.
