These few verses of the Qur'an sum up pretty nicely who is accepted as a believer and who will be saved in the End. Your thoughts?
62. Those who believe (in the Qurán), and those who follow the Jewish Scriptures, and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. 63. And remember We took your covenant (O Children of Israel) and We raised above you the Mount (Sinai). Saying: "Hold fast to that which We have given you, and remember that which is therein, so that you may become among the Pious"
[Qur'an:2:The Hefer]
68. Say (O Muhammad): "O People of the Book! (ie: Jews and Christians) You have no ground to stand upon unless you stand fast by the Torah, the Gospel, and all the Revelation that has come to you from Your Lord." It is the Revelation that comes to you from Your Lord that increases in most of them (disbelievers/pagans/atheists) their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But don't sorrow over a people without Faith.
69. Those who believe (in the Qurán), and those who follow the Jewish Scriptures, and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
[Qur'an:5:The Table Spread]
So the requirements are simple:
1. Believe in God
2. Believe in the Last Day/Resurrection
3. Do righteous deeds and work good on the Earth
Quite simple. This is the same Message that came to Abraham the True. Our Monotheist Father.
