What is the validity of this statement: "The religion of all the messengers is Islam, but their Shari'ahs differ"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is this statement correct? The religion of all the messengers (peace and blessings be upon them) is Islam, but their Shari'ahs differ. Without a doubt.

Answer:
This is correct. The religion of the messengers is Islam, which is the pure tawhid (the oneness of Allah) for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Their Shari'ahs differ due to the needs of the people, because the needs of people differ according to times and places. Therefore, Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) abrogates what He wills until the Shari'ah of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) came, and it remained until the Hour occurs, not to be abrogated or changed. Yes.
