Other religions have been named after the founder or after the community in which the religion prospered. E.g.:- <strong><em>Christianity</em></strong> has been named after <strong><em>Christ</em></strong>, <strong><em>Buddhism</em></strong> after <strong><em>Buddha</em></strong> and <strong><em>Judaism</em></strong> after the tribe of <strong><em>Judah</em></strong>. But Islam has not been named after Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). It is the name of Allah’s Guidance for mankind revealed through all the prophets, the last of whom was Muhammad (PBUH).</span></span></span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial'"><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-size: 12px"><strong><em>Islam</em></strong> and <strong><em>Muslim</em></strong> are words used in the <strong><em>Quraan</em></strong>.
