truth in Islam is absolute, sourced from the Qur’an, Hadith, and ijma (consensus of scholars). These three sources must be a guide for a Muslim to determine the truth in various aspects of life.
However, a Muslim is also ordered not to be arrogant and must not force his beliefs on followers of other religions. A Muslim is only required to convey the truth, not to force the truth.
Therefore, we must continue to respect the beliefs of others and must continue to do good to all humans.
