Jesus is a Muslim, described in surah Ali 'Imran: 52, which reads [3:52] When Jesus sensed their disbelief, he said, "Who are my supporters towards GOD?" The disciples said, "We are GOD's supporters; we believe in GOD, and bear witness that we are Muslim."

Moses is a Muslim, explained in surah Yunus: 84, which reads [10:84] Moses said, "O my people, if you have really believed in GOD, then put your trust in Him, if you are really Muslim."

Abraham is a Muslim, described in the letter Ali 'Imran: 67, which reads [3:67] Abraham was neither Jewish, nor Christian; he was a Muslim. He never was an idol worshiper.

Abraham bequeath Islam to his descendants, explained in surah Al-Baqarah: 132 which reads [2:132] Moreover, Abraham exhorted his children to do the same, and so did Jacob: "O my children, GOD has pointed out the religion for you; do not die except as Muslim."

Islam is the religion of the Prophets, explained in surah Al-Baqarah: 136 which reads [2:136] Say, "We believe in GOD, and in what was sent down to us, and in what was sent down to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs; and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and all the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction among any of them. To Him alone we are Muslim."

Clear that the Prophet Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad have One Teacher. Then One Teacher teaches one lesson. And One lesson of all the religion of the Prophets is Islam.
