Vers: 85

وَمَن يَبۡتَغِ غَيۡرَ ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمِ دِينٗا فَلَن يُقۡبَلَ مِنۡهُ وَهُوَ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ مِنَ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ

(85) Whoever seeks a religion other than Islam^[636], it will not be accepted from him and in the Hereafter he is one of the Losers.

[636] ‘Islam’ here, which may very well carry traces of its linguistic meaning, surrender/submission, is the religion of Muhammad (ﷺ). It is the final, most perfect Message that came from God: “Today ˹the day of ʿArafāt˺ I have finalized your religion for you, perfected My Favour on you and I approve Islam as a religion for you” (5:3). The next aya, 3: 86, in which the to-be-followed ‘Messenger’ is again evoked, further underlines this. al-Biqāʿī (Naẓm al-Durar, 475) says: “…islām ˹the lexical term and its derivatives˺ is mentioned repeatedly here ˹in these thematically related ayas˺ because it falls within the bounds of the solemn pledge that was taken for the to-be-followed Messenger ˹who was always to come˺—he is to be followed with total surrender ˹unconditionally˺”.
