No matter what race you are, no matter how big the word 'Islam' or 'Muslim' is written on your IC, no matter what dress you wear, no matter what beard you have and no matter what language you speak with your mouth...
You cannot become a Muslim if you do not surrender and submits to the 'Will of God'...and no one, i repeat 'No One'...can be born into Islam or as a Muslim, not even the children of the Prophets...
Submission to the good will of God, together with obedience to His beneficial Law, ie, becoming a Muslim, is the best safeguard for human's peace and harmony.
In the Quran, God defines that the only purpose for which He created mankind is to Worship Him. Islam recognizes that humankind has free choice in whether to obey or disobey God, but ultimately we will be held accountable to God in the next life for the choices that we make in this life.
God sent Prophets to teach mankind how to worship Him; starting with Adam, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and the last of the messengers, Muhammad (peace be upon them all).
The Islamic position is that all of these prophets came with the same message, that there is no deity worthy of worship except the One True God, known in Arabic as Allah.
Technically, Arabic has no capital letters, so the word is 'Allah' (meaning The God). Second 'Al' is a prefix definite article meaning “the.” The root word 'Lah' just means “God.” Thus, Al-lah translates simply to 'The God'.
From a Muslim point of view, the God of the Jews, the Christians, and Muslims are all the same figure, just as the Christians like to believe their God is the same God of Judaism. It’s not as if “Allah” is some other competing divinity.
Wallahu'alam
