Amidst the fiercest persecution and abuse that the Muslims faced in the earliest Meccan period, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ would stand without wavering and convey to his followers God’s promise of Islam spreading all over the world. Tamīm ad-Dāri (rA) reports that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,:
“This matter will certainly reach every place touched by the night and day. Allah will not leave a house of mud or [even] fur except that Allah will cause this religion to enter it, by which the honorable will be honored and the disgraceful will be disgraced. Allah will honor the honorable with Islam and he will disgrace the disgraceful with unbelief.”[3]
In another narration, reported by Thawbān:
(rA), “Indeed, Allah gathered up the earth for me so that I saw its east and its west; and indeed the dominion of my nation will reach what was gathered up for me from it.”
The fact that these predictions were made at a time when Muslims were a powerless handful, and Islam was expected to be buried in its cradle, is nothing short of miraculous. At that point, presuming that the faith would even survive would be considered by most nothing short of a pipe-dream. But to predict that Islam would not just survive, but grow to thrive globally, was at that point inconceivable. For us nowadays, witnessing a quarter of this planet’s population Muslims that's makes it clear that this was no presumption, but instead another prophecy inspired by the Divine.

Indeed, you have not read the whole quran, verses like-
- Say, "The truth is from your Lord": Let him who will believe, and let him who will, reject (it)...(18:29)
- To you be your religion and to me,my religion. (109:6)
- There shall be no compulsion in the acceptance of religion. (2:256)
- So [Prophet] warn them: your only task is to give warning,(88:21)
- you are not there to control them. (88:22)
- And had your LORD willed, those on earth would have believed- all of them, entirely. Then, O Prophet, would you compell the people against their will in order that they become believers? And it is not for a soul to believe, except by permission of GOD, and he will place defilement upon those who will not use reason. (10:99-100)
- It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one, whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance. (28:56)
- [Believers], do not revile those they call on beside God in case they, in their hostility and ignorance, revile God. To each community We make their own actions seem alluring, but in the end they will return to their Lord and He will inform them of all they did. (6:108)
- if anyone kills a person- unless in retribution for murder or spreading corruption in the land- it is as if he kills all mankind, while if any saves a life it is as if he saves the lives of all mankind. (5:32)
- The Believers are but a single Brotherhood: So make peace and reconciliation between your two (contending) brothers; and fear Allah, that ye may receive Mercy. (49:10)
- ...Thus did We plan for Joseph. He could not take his brother by the law of the king except that Allah willed it (so). We raise to degrees (of wisdom) whom We please: but over all endued with knowledge is one, the All-Knowing. (12:76)
Islam teaches tolerance it teaches us not to mock other religions, Islam teaches "Truth stands out clear from Error" (2:256) so it is not for us to compel someone to abide to our beliefs. we all can live together peacefully we can accept our differences but at the end "...But Allah will judge between them on the Day of Judgment, as to their differences". (16:124).
