Fist of all bobfartly is completely idiotic. Second of all, why is this in the Basketball section. Third, my Muslim friends live perfectly normal daily lives. Not a good question. bobfartly should not be saying this- it is a major stereotype, and I take offense, dummy.

Islam is a Intolorant religion.Most non Muslims move out of Muslim countries.Ask a Coptic who lives in Egypt what it is like living there.

Thank you for your question. \n\nI could write so much on how Islam has changed my life and how I feel inside my heart about Islam. But I will keep it short and sweet.\n\nIslam has made me a better person and brought me out of major sin. I am not going to go into what I was like before Islam, but I can say I was not going down a good path.\n\nEverything we do day in and day out is for Allah(God). From worship to our daily routine. I now have a reason to live a reason to be happy even when life is hard. \n\nIt has giving my life purpose and a feeling of peace. \n\nIslam is my salvation, and my reward, inshaAllah(God willing) will be paradise.

According to the holy book of muslims - Quran\n\nFor a Muslim, his faith is first demonstrated by the five daily ritual Prayers called Salah. These Prayers are so important that they are the second Pillar of Islam after the Testimony of Faith (“There is no god but God and Muhammad is the Messenger of God”), obligatory for all, and they are the first thing the Muslim will be asked about on Judgment Day.\n\nFive times a day a Muslim is asked to stop whatever he is doing — be it sleep, work, or play — and make a ritual ablution before facing his Lord in Prayer. No matter what his actions, the most important thing to a Muslim is his relationship with Allah. This relationship is demonstrated and put into practice, as well as improved and increased, by the ritual Prayers. Only if the Prayers are sound and proper will the deeds be sound and proper.\n\nIn the Prayer, the Muslim faces towards the Ka‘bah in Makkah, the symbol of the Oneness of Allah and the unity of Muslims. He stands, bows, and prostrates to his Lord while praising Him, reciting some of the words He revealed in the Qur’an, and asking for His forgiveness and mercy. In doing so, the Muslim reminds himself of his position in the universe as a humble servant of Allah and of his total dependence on his Creator, Cherisher and Sustainer.\n\nWhen the Prayer is performed properly — with due humility and remembrance of Allah — it has a lasting effect on the person. It fills his heart with the remembrance of Allah, and with fear of and hope in Him. He will not want to move from that lofty position by disobeying Allah.\n\nThe Prophet compared this experience of making ablution and praying five times a day to having a river running in front of one’s house. If one bathed in that river five times a day, would any filth remain on his body? Likewise, the ablution and Prayer five times a day removes one’s sins and also prevents him from sinning.\n\nPrayers also affect the life of the Muslim by encouraging him to schedule his activities around their fixed times. There is some flexibility, for each time is actually a span of one hour or more. But the Muslim who is conscious of Allah will strive to schedule his life in such a way that he does not miss any of the Prayers — for example, by postponing a shopping trip until after a Prayer, or by taking a break from work, or by sleeping earlier so as to able to rise for the Dawn Prayer.\n\nTherefore, if one really believes in Allah, he will show it by his commitment to the five daily Prayers, and these, in turn, will help him to live righteously.

The twin streams of Egypt's history converge just below the Delta at Cairo, where the greatest city in the Islamic world sprawls across the Nile towards the Pyramids, those supreme monuments of antiquity. Every visitor to Egypt comes here, to reel at the Pyramids' baleful mass and the seething immensity of Cairo, with its bazaars, mosques and Citadel, and extraordinary Antiquities Museum. It's equally impossible not to find yourself carried away by the streetlife, where medieval trades and customs coexist with a modern, cosmopolitan mix of Arab, African and European influences.\n\nCairo has been the largest city in Africa and the Middle East ever since the Mongols wasted Imperial Baghdad in 1258. Acknowledged as Umm Dunya or "Mother of the World" by medieval Arabs, and as Great Cairo by nineteenth-century Europeans, it remains, as Jan Morris writes in Destinations, "one of the half-dozen supercapitals – capitals that are bigger than themselves or their countries … the focus of a whole culture, an ideology or a historical moment". As Egypt has been a prize for conquerors from Alexander the Great to Rommel, so Cairo has been a fulcrum of power in the Arab world from the Crusades unto the present day. The ulema of its thousand-year-old Al-Azhar Mosque (for centuries the foremost centre of Islamic intellectual life) remains the ultimate religious authority for millions of Sunni Muslims, from Jakarta to Birmingham. Wherever Arabic is spoken, Cairo's cultural magnetism is felt. Every strand of Egyptian society knits and unravels in this febrile megalopolis.\n\nEgyptians have two names for the city, one ancient and popular, the other Islamic and official. The foremost is Masr, meaning both the capital and the land of Egypt – "Egypt City" – an ur-city that endlessly renews itself and dominates the nation, an idea rooted in pharaonic civilization. (For Egyptians abroad, "Masr" refers to their homeland; within its borders it means the capital.) Whereas Masr is timeless, the city's other name, Al-Qahira (The Conqueror), is linked to an event: the Fatimid conquest that made this the capital of an Islamic empire that embraced modern-day Libya, Tunisia, Palestine and Syria. The name is rarely used in everyday speech.\n\nBoth archetypes still resonate and in monumental terms are symbolized by two dramatic landmarks: the Pyramids of Giza at the edge of the Western Desert and the great Mosque of Mohammed Ali – the modernizer of Islamic Egypt – which broods atop the Citadel. Between these two monuments sprawls a vast city, the colour of sand and ashes, of diverse worlds and time zones, and gross inequities. All is subsumed into an organism that somehow thrives in the terminal ward: medieval slums and Art Deco suburbs, garbage-pickers and marbled malls, donkey carts and limos, piousness and "the oaths of men exaggerating in the name of God". Cairo lives by its own contradictions.\n\nThis is a city, as Jan Morris put it, "almost overwhelmed by its own fertility". Its population is today estimated at around eighteen million and is swollen by a further million commuters from the Delta and a thousand new migrants every day. Today, one third of Cairene households lack running water; a quarter of them have no sewers, either. Up to three million people reside in squatted cemeteries – the famous Cities of the Dead. The amount of green space per citizen has been calculated at thirteen square centimetres, not enough to cover a child's palm. Whereas earlier travellers noted that Cairo's air smelt "like hot bricks", visitors now find throat-rasping air pollution, chiefly caused by traffic. Cairo out-pollutes LA every day of the week: breathing the atmosphere downtown is reputedly akin to smoking thirty cigarettes a day.\n\nCairo's genius is to humanize these inescapable realities with social rituals. The rarity of public violence owes less to

I think what you are referring to is the Ka'ba, which is in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. It is not a wall, but a cubed structure (originally rectangular). The Muslims pray in this direction 5 times a day, and if they are financially able, make pilgrimage to it once in their life (as an obligation).\n\nYou can see a picture here:\nhttp://www.islam101.com/images/kabah51.JPG

Islam is a way of life.  Muslims practice their religion everyday, in everything they do, where as in christianity they practice every sunday.  Following the five pillars of islam will put u in the right path.

THIS is the translaition of the arbic statment \n Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: The Prophet said, "A Muslim is the one who avoids harming Muslims with his tongue and HANDs. And a Muhajir (emigrant) is the one who gives up (abandons) all what Allah has forbidden."  (Book #2, Hadith #9)\n=================\nIslam comes from the root word ‘salaam’, which means peace. It also means submitting one’s will to Allah (swt). Thus Islam is a religion of peace, which is acquired by submitting one’s will to the will of the Supreme Creator, Allah (swt).

It depends what you mean by pray. \nThere is 'salat' which involves not only prayers or supplication in words but also some body movements of standing with your arms folded slightly below your chest, bowing and then prostrating (like kissing the ground) and repeating this cycle either twice, thrice or four times depending on which out of the 5 'salats'. At every position, muslims recite in Arabic, prayers usually involving praising God, the Beneficent, the Merciful, Mostworthy of Praises.\nCompulsory salats are done 5 times throughout the day at specified times. The optional ones, suffice to say, can be done anytime up to how many times as you please.\n\nThere is also 'do'a' - a form of prayer where you sit in contemplation and ask God anything that you wish for, world peace, happiness for yourself, for others. Anything at all. Muslims pray for their parents, their children, friends and whomoever they  wish well. This can be done anytime, anywhere, in the buses and trains. It can be said in a whisper, loudly if the occasion permits and best in tears of humility. The prophet Muhammad taught specific do'as for various occasion in the daily life; you recite something specific the moment you wake up, put on your makeup, combing your hair, putting on a dress and I am not kidding, there is a specific do'a for everything and this ain't Dionne Warwicke lyrics.\n\n'Salat' takes precedence between the two as it is compulsory and a Muslim is judged by it on Judgment Day. \n\nStatistics shows that only 20% of Muslims worldwide perform the salat regularly, let alone use the do'a as a daily habitual practice. Hope that this might answer your question.

I think it is religious in nature.  Not being preduice at all.  i think that the muslin religion is to conquer the "non belivers" and they are following their religion.  Not saying it is right but that is the cause.

I am not a moslim, but I did see some good and not so good things about the Islam\n\nGood:\n1) It teaches you a lot about self discipline\n2) It does not give a human face to god. It considers the prophet as messenger of god, and not god himself\n3) It teaches you that life is a struggle and there is no shortcut. \n4) It teaches you that the only path to heaven is by being a good human being and putting humanity above every thing\n\nNot Good: I thing there is no problem with the religion, but the so called problems are because of following reasons.\n\n1) Some fanatics do not believe that the relgion should evolve with time\n2) In some cases, the men use the religion to curb the fredom of women.\n3) It does not allow inter racial marriages. A moslim must marry only moslim or convert the other person.

The Mursi people, number about 3900.  They live in Africa, in Ethiopia. They are nomadic cattle herders, they move around to take advantage of available grazing and water for their cattle, as well as suitable conditions for growing their crops of sorghum and maize.  They live close to the border of Sudan.  The area where they live is surrounded by mountains and three rivers so they are very isolated.  they ahve their own language which is called Mursi.  Level of literacy among the Mursi is very low.  The Mursi women are famous for wearing plates in their lower lips, ornaments similar to those worn by the Suya people, a tribe in Brazil.\n\nThat's about as short as it can get.  Check out these websites.  I hope this helps.
