Islam is the religion of nature (fitrah)
Hadith Number: 22
338- وبه: ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: ”كل مولود يولد على الفطرة، فابواه يهودانه وينصرانه كما تناتج الإبل من بهمية جمعاء، هل تحس من جدعاء؟“ فقالوا: يا رسول الله، افرايت من يموت وهو صغير؟، قال: ”الله اعلم بما كانوا عاملين“.
And with this same chain (it is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Every child is born upon the natural disposition (Islam), then his parents make him a Jew or a Christian (or otherwise), just as camels give birth to offspring that are whole—do you see any among them that are mutilated in ear or nose?" So the people said: O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him! What if a child dies in childhood? He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah knows what they would have done."
