(The Truth) " <img src="http://ryersonmsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Discover-Islam.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />What is Islam ?Islam is the name of the religion which comes from an Arabic root word meaning "peace" and "submission." The same Arabic root word gives us "Salaam alaykum," ("Peace be with you"), the universal Muslim greeting.The Muslim PeopleWho is a Muslim? A person who believes in and consciously follows Islam is called a Muslim, also from the same root word. So, the religion is called "Islam," and a person who believes in and follows it is a "Muslim." How Many and Where? Islam is a major world religion, with over 1 billion followers worldwide (1/5 of the world population). It is considered one of the Abrahamic, monotheistic faiths, along with Judaism and Christianity. Muslims are found all over the world, of every nation, color and race.Beliefs of IslamWho is Allah? Allah is the proper name for Almighty God, and is often translated merely as "God." Muslims believe that since Allah alone is the Creator, it is He alone that deserves our devout love and worship. Islam holds to a strict monotheism. Any worship and prayers directed at saints, prophets, other human beings or nature is considered idolatry. What do Muslims believe about God, prophets, the afterlife, etc.? The basic beliefs of Muslims fall into six main categories, which are known as the "Articles of Faith": Faith in the unity of God; Faith in angels; Faith in prophets; Faith in books of revelation; Faith in an afterlife; and Faith in destiny/divine decree.The Five Pillars of IslamIn Islam, faith and good works go hand-in-hand. A mere verbal declaration of faith is not enough, for belief in Allah makes obedience to Him a duty. The Muslim concept of worship is very broad. Muslims consider everything they do in life to be an act of worship, if it is done according to Allah's guidance. There are also five formal acts of worship which help strengthen a Muslim's faith and obedience. They are often called the "Five Pillars of Islam":Testimony of faith (or Kalima)* Prayer (or Salat)* Almsgiving (or Zakat)* Fasting (or Sawm)* Pilgrimage (or Hajj)* Daily Life as a MuslimWhile often seen as a radical or extreme religion, Muslims consider Islam to be the middle road. Muslims do not live life with complete disregard for God or religious matters, but nor do they neglect the world to devote themselves solely to worship and prayer. Muslims strike a balance by fulfilling the obligations of and enjoying this life, while always mindful of their duties to Allah and to others.May the Almighty God Allah(SWT) Show you the Correct path and Bless you all!</blockquote>
