Assalam-o-alaykum,
According to the holy Qur'an from Ayat 2:62,
"VERILY, those who have attained to faith [in this divine writ], as well as those who follow the Jewish faith, and the Christians, and the Sabians* -all who believe in God and the Last Day and do righteous deeds-shall have their reward with their Sustainer; and no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve."
Is the belief in our Prophet (pbuh) as the last prophet not a requirement to be rewarded on the day of judgement? If that is not the case than the Ahmadis wil also qualify?
I wass told that this Ayat has been abrogated by other Ayats later in the Qur'an. Are there othe abrogations of Ayats in the Qur'an?
Please clarify.

ever since i have started my school life i have heard this hadith to i respect it from the depth of my heart.
Prophets (SAW) said My Sahaba are like Stars, whoever follows any one of them will find Fallah
now i have read a very strange explanation on the web as follows;
There are at least three narrations comparing the Companions to the stars in the sky:
It is reported from the Prophet that he said :
1. "My Companions are like the stars; whoever among them you use for guidance, you will be rightly guided."
This is a weak (da`�f) hadith narrated:
- from Ibn `Umar by `Abd ibn Humayd in his Musnad as stated by al-Suyuti in Manahil al-Safa (p. 193 #1027) and Ibn `Adi in al-Kamil; al-Suyuti indicated it was weak in his Jami` al-Saghir (#4603).
- from Jabir by al-Daraqutni in Fada'il al-Sahaba and Ibn `Abd al-Barr in Jami` Bayan al-`Ilm (2:924-925 #1759-1760=2:111);
- from Abu Hurayra by al-Quda`i in Musnad al-Shihab with a very weak chain because of Ja`far ibn `Abd al-Wahid al-Hashimi who was declared a liar as stated by Ibn Hajar;
- from `Umar and Ibn `Abbas by al-Bayhaqi in al-Madkhal where he said: "Its matn is well-known (mashh�r) and its chains are weak"; - from `Umar by al-Sajzi in al-Ibana and Ibn `Asakir as stated by al-Suyuti who indicated it was weak in his Jami` al-Saghir (#4603);
- from Anas by al-Bazzar who said of `Abd ibn Humayd's narration: "It is condemned (munkar) and unsound" as cited by Ibn Hajar in Talkhis al-Habir (4:190-191 #2098).
Al-Bajawi said in his edition of al-Qadi `Iyad's al-Shifa (2:613): "Ibn Hazm even said: It is forged. The hadith master al-`Iraqi said: The author (`Iyad) should not have cited it as if it were definitely a hadith of the Prophet ." Al-Halabi said: "The author should not have cited it as if it were definitely a hadith of the Prophet , due to what is known about it among the scholars of this science, and he has done the same thing several times before." Al-Qari replies in his commentary on al-Shifa' (2:91): "It is possible that he [`Iyad] had established a chain for it, or that he considered the multiplicity of its chains to raise its grade from da`�f to that of hasan, due to his good opinion of it, not to mention the fact that even the weak hadith may be put into practice for meritorious acts (fad�'il al-a`m�l), and Allah knows best."
Al-Saghani declared it fair (hasan) as stated by Hasan al-Tibi and al-Sayyid's respective commentaries on the Mishkat. Shaykh `Abd al-Fattah Abu Ghudda in his commentary on al-Qari's Fath Bab al-`Inaya (1:13) and his al-Masnu` fi Ma`rifa al-Hadith al-Mawdu` (p. 273) rejects the grading of mawd�` and equally rejects al-Lacknawi's grading of sah�h - in his marginalia on the latter's Tuhfat al-Akhyar entitled Nukhbat al-Anzar (p. 53) and the introduction to his al-Athar al-Marfu`a fi al-Akhbar al-Mawdu`a - for which the latter cited al-Sha`rani's phrase in the Mizan al-Kubra: "Even if the authenticity of this hadith is questioned among the scholars of hadith, nevertheless it is sound among the people of miraculous unveiling (kashf)." See also the Tamim brothers' marginalia on al-Qari's Sharh Sharh Nukhba al-Fikar (p. 557).
As for the claim by the "Salafi" Sa`id Ma`shasha's recent tract al-Muqallidun wa al-A'imma al-Arba`a (Beirut: al-Maktab al-Islami and Dar Ibn Hazm, 1999) (p. 102) that "this hadith is forged (mawd�`) as Ibn Hazm said in Usul al-Ahkam (#810), al-Shawkani in al-Qawl al-Mufid (p. 30), and al-Albani in al-Silsila al-Da`ifa (#58) and a number of the scholars": this statement is a shameless lie as all al-Shawkani said in al-Qawl al-Mufid fi Adilla al-Ijtihad wa al-Taqlid on page 9 of its original 1347/1929 edition is: "This hadith was narrated through different routes from Jabir and Ibn `Umar, and the Imams of narrator-criticism have explicitly said that none of them are sound (l� yasihhu minhu shay') and that this hadith is not firmly established as a Prophetic narration.... In sum, this hadith forms no proof." This is the same opinion as those we have quoted from the majority of the scholars, but it is a far cry from his saying the hadith is forged. Furthermore, it is untrue that "a number of the scholars" have declared it forged, as the only scholar who did was Ibn Hazm, imitated in our time by Nasir Albani. One of the ironies of Ma`shasha's book is that he attacks taql�d in every page, yet relies exclusively on Albani for hadith authentication, without any reference to the hadith masters!
There is a confirmatory report for the above narration:
2. The hadith in Muslim and Ahmad narrated by Abu Musa al-Ash`ari whereby the Prophet, , said: "The stars are trust-keepers for the heaven, and when the stars wane, the heaven is brought what was promised (i.e. of the corruption of the world and the coming of the Day of Judgment); and I am a trust-keeper for my Companions, so when I go my Companions will be brought what was promised them (i.e. of fitna and division); and my Companions are trustkeepers for my Community, so when they go my Community will be brought what was promised to you (i.e. following haw� and vying for duny�)."
Another report states:
3. Anas relates that the Prophet , said: "The simile of the scholars of knowledge (al-`ulama') on the earth is the stars in the sky by which one is guided in the darkness of the land and the sea. When the stars are clouded over, the guides are about to be lost."
Narrated from Anas by Ahmad in his Musnad (al-Arna'ut ed. 20:52 #12600=al-Zayn ed. 10:508 #12537=3:157 #12606) with a very weak chain according to al-Arna'ut because of Rishdin ibn Sa`d who is weak, Abu Hafs - the narrator from Anas - who is unknown, and `Abd Allah ibn al-Walid who is "soft" (layyin), although al-Zayn declared it fair with his usual laxity, as did al-Suyuti in al-Jami` al-Saghir. Cf. al-Haytami (1:121). Also narrated by al-Khatib in al-Faqih wa al-Mutafaqqih (2:70), al-Ramahurmuzi in al-Amthal (p. 51) - both with the same chain - and Ahmad in al-Zuhd, mawq�f from Abu al-Darda'. Also narrated mursal from al-Hasan al-Basri by al-Bayhaqi in al-Madkhal (p. 274).
This is what `Umar meant when he named the Companions: "Those whom people look at and take (knowledge) from" when he disapproved of the difference of opinion between Ubay ibn Ka`b and `Abd Allah ibn Mas`ud, as related in Ibn `Abd al-Barr's Jami` Bayan al-`Ilm (Misr: Dar al-Tiba`a al-Muniriyya 2:84).
Al-Hakim al-Tirmidhi said in Nawadir al-Usul: "Not everyone that met him and followed him or saw him once is meant by this hadith but only those that studiously kept his company morning and evening, received his conveyance of the Revelation, took from him the Law that became the path of the Umma, and looked to him for the ethics of Islam and to his noble traits. Those became, after him, the Imams and the proofs in which resides right guidance and in whose path is found right emulation and in them is safety and right belief."
There are many reports showing the validity or desirability of following and imitating the Companions in their religious practice, and in the case of the Four Well-Guided Caliphs this imitation is actually a Prophetic command.
please in the light of quran and sunnah please explain is it correct to follow the above explanation. please tell why not if its not correct. this will help a layman like me.

Salaam.Please refer to the two hadiths below.Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah : A funeral procession passed in front of us and the Prophet stood up and we too stood up. We said, 'O Allah's Apostle! This is the funeral procession of a Jew." He said, "Whenever you see a funeral procession, you should stand up." Bukhari 2:23:398.................................................. .................................................. ....Narrated 'Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila: Sahl bin Hunaif and Qais bin Sad were sitting in the city of Al-Qadisiya. A funeral procession passed in front of them and they stood up. They were told that funeral procession was of one of the inhabitants of the land i.e. of a non-believer, under the protection of Muslims. They said, "A funeral procession passed in front of the Prophet and he stood up. When he was told that it was the coffin of a Jew, he said, "Is it not a living being (soul)?" Bukhari 2:23:399The above two hadiths have been explained by a brother in this manner: "we learn the underlying cause (Asbaab-ul-Hadeeth اسباب الحديث) through authentic sources that Allaah�s Messenger Muhammad صلی الله عليه وسلم stood up so that the bier would not pass above the heads of the Muslims, as this is a form of humiliation to them. If this is the underlying reason (which in fact is) for his standing up, then the practice of standing up for a bier (Janaaza جنازه) will be restricted to the bier of a disbeliever.But i and all my other muslim brothers and sisters have always known that the Prophet (s) stood up because of what he said in the hadiths and basically to show respect to humanity.What is the correct explanation?jazakzwsalaam
