Dan, you seem to be providing an explanation of Surah 2:62 which is totally different from the explanation other posters have provided. To summarize your claim:
- surah 2:62 was revealed first
- surah 3:85 was revealed second
- since 3:85 contradicts 2:62, 2:62 is abrogated by 3:85
- any Jews, Christians, and Sabians who died prior to the date surah 3:85 was revealed are now in heaven (assuming they believe in the Final Judgement and did good works).
Is that an accurate summary of your interpretation of Surah 2:62?
