(peace be upon them) to all people. Islam is a complete way of life.
It impacts every part oflife, 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, andpilgrimage are
intended to help meet this goal.Muslims believe in Allah, the Supreme
and Eternal, Infinite and Mighty, Merciful and Compassionate, The
Creatorand 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 discriminationamong them, as every known nation
has a Warner or messenger from Allah. They were chosen byGod to teach
humanity anddeliver 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).Muslims also believe
in another prophet named Muhammad, who is a direct descendant of
Abraham through his first born son, Ishmael. His prophethood is
propheciedin the Bible in several places, including Deut 18:18 and
John 14:16. Mohammadstands as thelast 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 Muhammadthrough
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.People living in the West and throughout the world should
not allow themselves to be ignorant about Islam and Muslims. For
example, there are ten million Muslims living in the United States out
of 1.8billion in the world. Only 18% of Muslims live in the Arab
world. Demographers say that Islam is the fastestgrowing religion in
the U.S.and the world. Islam is the second largest religion in
America, France, Great Britain and many more, surpassing Judaism,
Mormonism, Jehovah's Witness, and other religions.
