Islam is a faith centered on peace and submission to the one true God. It teaches that life has meaning — that we were created to know, love, and worship our Creator. Far from being a new religion, Islam continues the same message brought by prophets like Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and finally Muhammad ﷺ: to live with sincerity, justice, and compassion.
Muslims — nearly 2 billion around the world — come from all cultures and backgrounds. They believe in one God (Allah), follow the Qur’an as divine guidance, and look to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as a model of mercy and integrity. Their faith is built on belief in God, angels, divine books, prophets, the Day of Judgment, and God’s divine will.
The foundation of Islamic practice is the Five Pillars: faith in God, daily prayer, charity, fasting in Ramadan, and pilgrimage to Mecca. These acts bring spiritual focus, generosity, and unity.
Islamic history is filled with knowledge, creativity, and service — from scientific breakthroughs to the founding of the first universities. The story of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — a man of truth, kindness, and vision — continues to inspire millions today.
In a divided world, Islam offers a message of peace, humility, and a return to something greater than ourselves: the remembrance of God.
