“”
 God does not judge you according to your bodies and appearances, but He looks into your hearts and observes your deeds. |
—  Prophet Muhammad
|
Islam is an Abrahamic 
monotheistic religion based on the 
Quran and the teachings of Muhammad. Muslims believe Islam is the complete and universal version of a primordial faith revealed through prophets like 
Adam, 
Noah, 
Abraham, 
Moses, and 
Jesus. Islam is also the second largest 
religion in the world.
Islam is also the fastest growing religion. Throughout his history, Islam mostly grew and spread through conquest under the 
caliphates. Islam was founded by Prophet Muhammad in the Middle East. Whether he's calling for peace, war, or sharia law, Islam is a major force on the world stage — religiously, politically, and culturally.
History
Founding
Islam was founded by the Prophet Muhammad in the early 7th century in 
Mecca, in present-day 
Saudi Arabia. Around 610 CE, Muhammad began receiving "revelations" from the angel 
Gabriel, which were later compiled into the Quran, the holy book of Islam. His teachings centered on monotheism, calling for the worship of one God, Allah, and emphasized social justice, charity, and 
moral conduct, He tried to preach for 12 years, but was only able to recruit his immediate family and friends.
After facing persecution in Mecca, Muhammad and his followers migrated to Medina in 622 AD, an event known as the Hijra, which marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar. Medina was the 
Jewish hub of trade. Muhammad established an Islamic Theocracy, uniting the tribes under Islam and leading a community governed by Sharia (Islamic law). Over the next decade, Muhammad successfully spread Islam across the 
Arabian Peninsula, culminating in the conquest of Mecca in 630 AD. Muhammad passed away in 632 when Arabia was unified under Islam, leaving behind a rapidly growing religious community.
Early Days
After Muhammad's death, his close companions were chosen as caliphs (successors), marking the beginning of the 
Rashidun Caliphate. This period is considered the golden age of Islamic governance and saw the first four caliphs, known as the "Rightly Guided Caliphs," lead the Muslim community.
In 637, Islam spread to the Levant. In 640, Mesopotamia. In 643, Egypt, and Persia in 651.
Caliphates & Golden Age
Islam grew and spread, and the Muslims kept on gaining land. Muslims started to make lots of scientific and cultural contributions. For hundreds of years Islam dominated, through the caliphates of the Rashidun, 
Umayyad, 
Abbasid and 
Ottoman.
Contemporary
In 1924, the Ottoman Empire fell apart. The rule of caliphates is over. Islam could no longer compete with the more advanced 
Christian countries. So, Muslims began to mainly use Dawah to spread.
From the Arab Spring (2010s) and onwards, Islamists have controlled many regions in MENA.ms)
Beliefs
Islam's quick spread influenced Arabian society very much. The notable ideas of Islam are as follows:
Angels - Holy beings of Allah.- Day of Resurrection - Day of final judgement, where everyone is resurrected and sent to their eternal fates.
Oneness of God -- Predestination
- Prophets
- Ramadan
- Revealed Books - Muslims believe in the teachings of the Quran, which is considered the final revelation to humanity, and the example set by the
Prophet Muhammad as recorded in the Hadith.
The Five Pillars of Islam form the framework of faith and practice, including the declaration of faith (Shahada), prayer (Salah), fasting (Sawm) during the month of Ramadan, charity (Zakat), and pilgrimage (Hajj) to Mecca 🕋 for those able.
More extreme variants of Islam includes 
terrorist ideologies like 
Jihadism, who many Muslims have denounced as "fake Islam".
Quran
According to Muslims, the Quran was revealed to the prophet Muhammad by Allah. They believe that the Quran is eternal and never wrong, since it is directly dictated by Allah. As the final and unaltered word of God, it serves as a complete guide for life, covering all aspects of morality, law, and spirituality. Muslims view the Quran as the ultimate source of truth, superseding previous scriptures, and it is recited and memorized by believers around the world as an act of devotion.
Angels
Angels in Islam are beings mentioned in the Quran and hadith. They are created to worship God and perform specific duties, such as delivering God's revelations, recording people's actions, and taking souls at death. Angels are described as being made from light (nūr) or fire (nār). They are often depicted in human-like forms with supernatural features, such as wings and immense size, and they do not have bodily needs like eating or drinking. Some angels, like Gabriel (Jibrīl) and Michael (Mika'il), are named in the Quran.
Day of Resurrection
Central to Islamic belief is the concept of accountability and judgment in the afterlife, where individuals will be rewarded or punished based on their deeds and adherence to Islamic principles on the Day of Resurrection (Yawm al-Qiyāmah). Muslims believe on this day, a day of judgment where everyone is resurrected and judged by their deeds. Those who have done good are rewarded with entry to Jannah (paradise), and those with evil deeds may be sent to Jahannam (hell).
Afterlife
Muslims believe in the afterlife.
- Jannah (Heaven) - Muslims believe when a Muslim die, they go to Jannah, or Heaven. In Jannah, everyone will be the same height and will be able to meet all the Islamic prophets. This place is considered a paradise, and according to one count, the word appears 147 times in the Qur'an. Jannah is described with physical pleasures such as gardens, beautiful houris, wine that has no aftereffects, and "divine pleasure".
Oneness of God
Islamic belief revolves around the concept of monotheism, emphasizing the oneness of Allah as the creator, sustainer, and sole deity worthy of worship. Tawḥīd, the belief in the oneness of God, is the central tenet of Islam. God is unique, transcendent, and beyond human comprehension. Muslims reject the Christian 
Trinity, and associating others with God is considered shirk (idolatry). God is personal and cannot be depicted.
Contrary to Christianity, the God of Islam, Allah, is described as distant, unknowable, and often detached, emphasizing mystery over intimacy.
Practices
Prayers
Islamic prayers, known as Salah or Salat, are a fundamental act of worship performed five times a day by Muslims. Each prayer consists of specific movements and recitations, including verses from the Quran, performed at prescribed times, facing the Kaaba in Mecca, to establish a direct connection with Allah.
Caliphates
A caliphate or khilāfah (Arabic: خِلَافَةْ [xi'laːfah]) is an institution or public office under the leadership of an Islamic steward with the title of caliph, a person considered a political-religious successor to Muhammad and a leader of the entire Muslim world (ummah). The caliphate is meant to uphold and implement Islamic law (Sharia) and govern the affairs of the Muslim community. Historically, various caliphates have existed, such as the Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid, and Ottoman caliphates, each of which played a crucial role in the spread of Islam and the administration of vast territories.
