Islam




Islam is the same religion
that God revealed through His messengers (peace be
upon them) to all people. Islam is a complete way of life. It impacts every
part of life, from eating and sleeping to working and playing. It is not only a
personal religion, but also a social one.


Muslims are supposed to live in accordance with God's laws. By doing so, they
strive to obtain nearness to God and victory over temporary trials and
temptations in this world. All aspects of their practice including prayer, fasting,
charity, and pilgrimage are intended to help meet this goal.


Muslims believe in Allah, the Supreme and Eternal, Infinite and Mighty,
Merciful and Compassionate, The Creator and The Provider, He begets not, nor
was He begotten, and there is none equal or comparable unto Him.


Muslims believe in all Messengers of Allah without any discrimination among
them, as every known nation has a Warner or messenger from Allah. They were
chosen by God to teach humanity and deliver His Divine message. The Qur'an mentions the name of some of them including Jews
including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses,
Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John the Baptist, and Jesus (peace be upon
them).


While we as Muslims believe that the entire Qur'an is
the word of God and we would like every one to accept it as such, God Himself
has given the freedom of religion which we respect. With that in mind, all we
hope is that non-Muslims will at least enlighten themselves by knowing what
Islam is. We hope that Muslims, Christians and Jews will find ways to work
together to bring peace on earth by eradicating immorality, fear, hate,
disease, poverty and injustice. We hope that the following articles will be
useful in understanding basics of Islam.


Muslims also believe in another prophet named Muhammad, who is a direct
descendant of Abraham through his first born son, Ishmael. His prophethood is prophecied in the
Bible in several places, including Deut 18:18 and John 14:16. Mohammad stands
as the last messenger and the crowning glory of the foundation of prophethood.


Muslims believe in all original scriptures and revelations of Allah, accepting
them as the guiding light that the messengers received to show their respective
people the right path to Him. However, some of these books and revelations had
been lost or corrupted before the revelation of the Qur'an.
The only authentic and complete book of Allah in existence today is the Qur'an, which has been preserved as it was revealed to prophet Muhammad through Angel Gabriel in its pristine, pure
form.


The Qur'an contains many stories that are familiar to
Christians and Jews. It contains no scientific fallacies or internal
contradictions. In fact, it contains much scientific knowledge discovered by
scientists only in this century. The Qur'an is an
unparalleled Arabic literary masterpiece
