This is also untrue. The Quran says:
Surely those who believe,
those who are Jewish,
the Christians,
the converts;
anyone who
(1) believes in God, and
(2) believes in the hereafter, and
(3) leads a righteous life,
will receive their recompense
from their Lord;
they have nothing to fear,
nor will they grieve.
