I believe that there is no god besides our true God (Allah) and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the last and final messenger.
I realized that I am now a real follower of Jesus (peace be upon him) because In Islam, Jesus (Arabic: Nabi Isa) is considered to be a Messenger of God who was sent to guide the People of Israel (banī isrā'īl) with a new scripture, the Injīl or Gospel. He is the Messiah. He is a word from Allah and a spirit from Him. He is considered honored in this world and in the Hereafter, and he is one of those brought nearest to Allah.
As a result, Islam teaches Muslims to love Jesus, honour him, and believe in him. In fact, no Muslim can be a Muslim unless he or she believes in Jesus.
The Qur'an, considered by Muslims to be God's final and authoritative revelation to humankind, mentions Jesus twenty-five times. It states that Jesus was born to Mary (Arabic: Maryam) as the result of virginal conception, a miraculous event which occurred by the decree of God (Arabic: Allah). To aid in his ministry to the Jewish people, Jesus was given the ability to perform miracles, all by the permission of God rather than of his own power. According to the Qur'an (Koran), Jesus was neither killed nor crucified, but rather he was ascended to heaven. Islamic tradition and commentaries states that he will return to earth near the day of judgment to restore justice and defeat al-Masīḥ ad-Dajjāl ("the false messiah", also known as the Antichrist)
Like all prophets in Islam, Jesus is considered to have been a Muslim by the term's definition; i.e., one who submits to the will of God, as he preached that his followers should adopt the "straight path" as commanded by God. Islam rejects the Christian view that Jesus was God incarnate or the son of God, that he was ever crucified or resurrected, or that he ever atoned for the sins of mankind.
The Qur'an emphasizes that Jesus himself never claimed any of these things, and it furthermore indicates that Jesus will deny having ever claimed divinity at the Last Judgment, and Allah will vindicate him.
Rather, the Qur'an emphasizes that Jesus was a mortal human being who, like all other prophets, had been divinely chosen to spread God's message. Islamic texts forbid the association of partners with God (shirk), emphasizing a strict notion of monotheism; i.e., God's divine oneness (tawhīd).
So Alhamdulillah now I am trying my best to follow Islam because it is not just a religion, it is a way of life. May Allah guide us all believers always and those people, who are seeking for truth to straight path, accept our repentance and protect us from mischief makers...Amen
