You Shall Not Make Any Distinction Among Allah's Messengers

2:285

ءَامَنَ ٱلرَّسُولُ بِمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡهِ مِن رَبِّهِ وَٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ‌ۚ كُلٌّ ءَامَنَ بِٱللهِ وَمَلَـٰٓٮِٕكَتِهِۦ وَكُتُبِهِۦ وَرُسُلِهِۦ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيۡنَ أَحَدٍ۬ مِّن رُّسُلِهِۦ‌ۚ وَقَالُواْ سَمِعۡنَا وَأَطَعۡنَا‌ۖ غُفۡرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيۡكَ ٱلۡمَصِيرُ ٢٨٥

The messenger has believed in what was sent down to him from his Lord, and so did the believers. They all believe in ALLAH, His angels, His scriptures, and His messengers: "We make no distinction among any of His messengers." They say, "We hear, and we obey. Forgive us, our Lord. To You is the ultimate destiny."

Proofs and revelations

One of the major commandments is “You shall not make any distinction among Allah’s messengers” (2:136, 3:84, 4:150). The believers respond by saying “we hear and we obey,” while the idol worshippers argue back to justify their insistence of mentioning Muhammad’s name next to Allah’s, to the exclusion of all other messengers. The corrupted muslims mention Muhammad in their profession of faith (Shahadah) and during their Salat (Contact Prayers) (see 72:18).


2:285 - The Proof:


Revealed: The verse is marked with 19 Aleefs of Absoluteness.

Revealed: The messenger’s letters are Perfectly 66 in the entire verse.

Verse 12:106: The Majority Of Those Who Believe In Allah Do Not Do So Without Committing Idol Worship (Part 1)

VERSE 12:106: THE MAJORITY OF THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN ALLAH DO NOT DO SO WITHOUT COMMITTING IDOL WORSHIP (PART 1) Page 11
The command to “obey Allah and obey the messenger” is repeated and narrated in the Quran in a very forceful way. This command is for the believers who have fully submitted and pledged to Allah and His messenger. This command forms the core of the religion of submission, whereby no choice is offered to the people – either they submit fully, or they remain astray. The believers in the present congregation have pledged to believe in the entire Quran which means they have also read and believed in verse 2:285.

This extension of the key phrase, “we hear and we obey,” is the gist of Islam (submission), which is tested by GOD through another Covenant pledged by the humans, which is to believe and follow His messengers and to fully obey a living messenger, when there is one.

    In 2:285, GOD tells us that the messenger has believed in what is revealed to him, and so do the believers. The messenger and the believers both reaffirm their belief by making a commitment not to differentiate or make a distinction between the messengers, and to honor the pledge of “we hear and we obey.” The messenger believes in the revelations of GOD sent down to him, and thereby obeys by believing in them. The believers, on the other hand, have the added responsibility of believing
