In the English dictionary we see that  .Submission is defined as “to yield to

the power or authority of another for

example to submit to a conqueror”.

In the Case of the religion of Islam

(Submission) it is yielding to the authority of God, the one and only creator.

People from all religions unequivocally claim that they have yielded to

the authority of God, so does this

mean people from all religions are

submitters (Muslims)?

The important aspect of submission

is to yield exclusively to the authority of God alone without associating

others with Him in the strictest form

of monotheism as taught by God

Himself in His scriptures. Without

doing so we have not submitted.

Thus the religion of Submission is

also the religion of absolute and

strict monotheism (the worship of the

One and Only God without the association of others).

[2:131] When his Lord said to him,

“Submit,” he said, “I submit to the

Lord of the universe.”

[30:30] Therefore, you shall devote

yourself to the religion of strict monotheism. Such is the natural instinct

placed into the people by GOD. Such

creation of GOD will never change.

This is the perfect religion, but most

people do not know.

[10:105] I was commanded: “Keep

yourself devoted to the religion of monotheism; you shall not practice idol

worship.

[30:27] And He is the One who initiates the creation, then repeats it; this is

even easier for Him. To Him belongs

the most sublime similitude, in the

heavens and the earth, and He is the

Almighty, Most Wise.

[13:16] Say, “Who is the Lord of the

heavens and the earth?” Say, “GOD.”

Say, “Why then do you set up besides

Him masters who do not possess any

power to benefit or harm even themselves?” Say, “Is the blind the same as

the seer? Is darkness the same as the

light?” Have they found idols besides

GOD who created creations similar to

His creations, to the point of not distinguishing the two creations? Say,

“GOD is the Creator of all things, and

He is the One, the Supreme.”

[55:3] Creator of the human beings.

[112:4] “None equals Him.

[2:112] Indeed, those who submit

themselves absolutely to GOD alone,

while leading a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their

Lord; they have nothing to fear, nor

will they grieve.

[3:19] The only religion approved by

GOD is “Submission.” Ironically,

those who have received the scripture

are the ones who dispute this fact, despite the knowledge they have received,

due to jealousy. For such rejectors of

GOD’s revelations, GOD is most strict

in reckoning.

It has been the religion of all creation

for all the time. It is the only acceptable religion in the sight of God. God

has rejected and has never authorized

the worship of others alongside Himself.

[3:85] Anyone who accepts other than

Submission as his religion, it will not

be accepted from him, and in the Hereafter, he will be with the losers.

[16:51] GOD has proclaimed: “Do

not worship two gods; there is only

one god. You shall reverence Me

alone.”

[17:42] Say, “If there were any other

gods beside Him, as they claim, they

would have tried to overthrow the

Possessor of the throne.”

Furthermore, it is not a religion in the

traditional sense of the word. The traditional definition of religion is that: it

is the practice of religious beliefs;

ritual observance of faith. For example Christians attending mass on Sunday while generally remaining heedless about God the rest of the week.

Submission is a much deeper and active concept than what we traditionally understand to be religion.

We are spiritual beings in bodily garments, thus our submission to God is

the absolute devotion of our souls

(ourselves) and bodies (garments)

every moment of our lives on this

earth and even beyond our earth existence, willingly submitting, without

ever tiring, without least arrogance,

without the least disobedience, without the least hesitation just like every

other creature in the universe.

[16:48] Have they not seen all the

things created by GOD? Their shadows surround them right and left, in

total submission to GOD, and willingly

[16:49] To GOD prostrates everything in the heavens and everything

on earth ― every creature―and so

do the angels; without the least arrogance.

[13:15] To GOD prostrates everyone

in the heavens and the earth, willingly

or unwillingly, and so do their shadows in the mornings and the evenings.

[22:18] 2xDo you not realize that to

GOD prostrates everyone in the heavens and the earth, and the sun, and

the moon, and the stars, and the mountains, and the trees, and the animals,

and many people? Many others among

the people are committed to doom.

Whomever GOD shames, none will honor him. Everything is in accordance

with GOD’s will.

[3:102] O you who believe, you shall

observe GOD as He should be observed, and do not die except as Submitters.

[2:131] When his Lord said to him,

“Submit,” he said, “I submit to the Lord

of the universe.”

[2:132] Moreover, Abraham exhorted

his children to do the same, and so did

Jacob: “O my children, GOD has pointed out the religion for you; do not die

except as submitters.”

[66:6] O you who believe, protect yourselves and your families from the Hellfire whose fuel is people and rocks.

Guarding it are stern and powerful angels who never disobey GOD; they do

whatever they are commanded to do.

[41:38] If they are too arrogant to do

this, then those at your Lord glorify Him

night and day, without ever tiring.

[91:7-8] The soul and Him who created

it. Then showed it what is evil and what

is good.

[6:125] Whomever GOD wills to guide,

He renders his chest wide open to Submission. And whomever He wills to send

astray, He renders his chest intolerant

and straitened, like one who climbs towards the sky. GOD thus places a curse

upon those who refuse to believe.

[6:162] Say, “My Contact Prayers

(Salat), my worship practices, my life

and my death, are all devoted absolutely to GOD alone, the Lord of the universe.

[2:208] O you who believe, you shall

embrace total submission; do not follow

the steps of Satan, for he is your most

ardent enemy                                                                                                                                                     Psalms 62

1 My soul waits in silence for God only;

From Him is my salvation.

2 He only is my rock and my salvation,

My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

3 How long will you assail a man,

That you may murder him, all of

you,

Like a leaning wall, like a tottering

fence?

4 They have counseled only to thrust

him down from his high position;

They delight in falsehood;

They bless with their mouth,

But inwardly they curse. Selah.

5 My soul, wait in silence for God only,

For my hope is from Him.

6 He only is my rock and my salvation,

My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.

7 On God my salvation and my glory

rest;

The rock of my strength, my refuge

is in God.

8 Trust in Him at all times, O people;

Pour out your heart before Him;

God is a refuge for us. Selah.

9 Men of low degree are only vanity

and men of rank are a lie;

In the balances they go up;

They are together lighter than

breath.

10 Do not trust in oppression

And do not vainly hope in robbery;

If riches increase, do not set your

heart upon them.

11 Once God has spoken;

Twice I have heard this:

That power belongs to God;

12 And loving kindness is Yours, O

Lord, For You recompense a man according to his work.

[3:184] If they reject you, messengers

before you have been rejected, even

though they brought proofs, the

PSALMS, and the enlightening scripture.

[4:163] We have inspired you, as we

inspired Noah and the prophets after

him. And we inspired Abraham, Ismail,

Isaac, Jacob, the Patriarchs, Jesus, Job,

Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon. And we

gave David the PSALMS.
