Islam 101

INTRODUCTION TO ISLAM

Islam is the formal name of the religion of nearly 1.3 billion people of diverse races, languages, and geographies of earth. It is often said that Islam began in the seventh century. This is true, but only partially so. Islam is also considered an ancient religion owing to the fact that all the Prophets and Messengers of God, since Adam and Eve, taught people to believe in and worship the one and only Godโ€“the Creator of the heavens, the earth, and the seen and unseen creatures that inhabit the universe. This was the essential message of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad. It is also the core tenet of Islam, its heart and soul.
