List Of Sura's

Al-Baqarah (The Cow)

Surah 2 · Verse 138

“Christians baptize their children by sprinkling on them so called holy or red coloured water which marks the entry of the child into Christianity. By observing this formality of performing the ceremony of baptism they believe that they have transformed the child into a Christian. Allah (SWT) is asking the Owners of the book as to who could be better than Him in transforming or characterizing human beings by giving them His colour. What are the signs exhibited by human beings who received His colour. The answer appears to be given in last four words of the verse under discussion, the translation of which is ‘And we are His servants (or worshippers)’. Those who receive His colour are His servants. These servants of Allah (SWT) exhibit their internal belief and faith in Allah (SWT) through their external righteous deeds (Chapter: 42 Verses: 22–23). A person who thus receives the colour of Allah (SWT) is completely transformed both internally and externally and this transformation makes him to believe and act in accordance with the instructions given in the Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammed (PBH), which is quite different from the ceremonial baptism practiced by the Christians.”
