Please enlghten me, why this doubt comes to you?
What do you know about Islam?
Who is a muslim?
Anyway i humbly would like to furnish my opinion.
One meaning of Islam is submission to God (Allah The Almighty). One who declares his beliefe in oneness of Allah he becomes muslim.
Quran and teachings of Prophet PBUH guides the life a muslim. Allah the Alimighty only knows whether one lived according to islam or not.
Allah The Almighty has all powers. Punishing and forgiving is all according to His (Allah the Almighty's) wish

If Allah is so powerful why did he create Kafirs who dont submit to him !
If Allah did not create the Kafirs whoever did that has a 2 to 1 advanatage over Allah !
Palani - Bhaa my objective is not to hurt or embarrass you but to make a point that Islam as well as all relgions are equally flawed when one goes deeper and deeper into the logic.
All religion was directed mainly at removing the fear of death and promising that even when the physical body dies the soul lives on.
But put to logic there is no explanations that stand scrutiny .
- What is the purpose of life?
- If God is almighty how come he cannot show the right way to people ?
- If God is almighty why does he tolerate a Satan ? Is Satan also Almighty ? Is the Almighty and Satan having 20-20 match on the earth?
People like Zakir Naik or Hindu Swamis 0r Christian Priests etc are merely peddling relegion.

But moderate, he means that one is willing to accept Kafirs in their midst.
In other words, by being a moderate, one is not a terrorist.
