WHAT IS ISLAM?

Islam is not a new religion. It’s the same truth that God (Allah) revealed through all His prophets to every people. More than fifth of the world’s population believe in islam.
Islam teaches the purest form of Monotheism and regards polytheism as the deadliest sin. Allah, according to islam, is the One God, who is Indivisible in Person and Who has no partner:wife,son or daughter. He is the First, the Last, the Eternal, the Infinite, the Almighty, the Omniscient, the Omnipresent. He is the Creator, the Nourisher, the Cherisher of all things. He is the avenger of the wrongs done to the weak and the oppressed, the compassionate, the Merciful and loving, the Guide, the Friend, the Magnificent, the Glorious, the Beautiful and the True. In short, He is Possessor of all Excellence.
According to Islam, the human intellect, though a great and powerful asset, has it’s natural limits, and, therefore, neither the normative nor the empirical sciences are capable of leading humanity to a sure knowledge of ultimate truths and the code of life based upon them. The only source of sure knowledge open to humanity is, consequently, Divine Guidance, and that course has been actually open ever since the beginnings of human life on earth. Allah raised His “Prophets” and “Messengers” and revealed His Guidance to them for transmission to humanity. Coming from the same source, all revealed religions have, therefore, been one, i.e., Islam, submission to Allah the Creator of the universe.
