يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ

“O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims.”
(Surah Alu ‘Imran, verse: 102)

وَمَن يَرْغَبُ عَن مِّلَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِلَّا مَن سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ ۚ وَلَقَدِ اصْطَفَيْنَاهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَإِنَّهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ لَمِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ

“And who would be averse to the religion of Ibrahim (‘alayhis salam) except one who makes a fool of himself. And We had chosen him in this world and indeed he, in the Hereafter, will be among the righteous.”
(Surah Baqarah, verse: 130)
