Salam All !\nQuran mentioned many many scientfc facts, which led many scientist to embrace Islam like Maurice Bucaille, Garry Miller, you can find more in this link;\nhttp://thetruereligion.org/modules/xfsection/index.php?category=3\n\n. Some of these Topics that Quran mentioned:\n40 Days in the Womb \nEmbryological & Fetal Devt \nPollution & wasting natural resources \nClouds \nThe Water Cycle \nThe dual nature of iron \nThe Spread of Disease \nSun & Moon and Their Orbits \nSun & Moon Move With Own Motion\nIron

The world is an illusion and Islam is the reality. The Qur'an is an eye-opener:\n"The same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah, hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. Allah chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him)."\nAl-Qur'an, 042.013

It all boils down to one thing, and one thing only.  Muhammed, when he was inventing allah and islam, took and corrupted (intentionally or not) a lot of factoids from Judaism and Christianity.  His ONLY defense against his inadequate knowledge of science, astronomy, anatomy, physiology, history, religion (esp Judaism and Christianity), and many OTHER fields of thought was to declare EVERYTHING ELSE as wrong or corrupted.  (nice try, Mo)  \n\nIslam "claims" to be correct and complete, yet denies the divine nature of Jesus.  Islam is at a loss for anything spiritual (resorting instead to lavish physical pleasures and rewards for following allah/Muhammed).  There are so many blatant errors in the koran that it's not worth listing.\n\nChristianity (rightfully) views islam and allah as a false god.

Islam agrees with Both.... God is The Creator, and He is also Evolver. these are one of the attributes of God in islam. Whereever there is a Creation, He is "The Creator", Whereever there is an Evolution, He is "The Evolver"\n\nIt depends on which evolution you are talking about .>>>> Islam does not believe that humans have been evolve from monkeys??? \n\nThis evolution is not a fact. thats why it is called as "darwins THEORY of evolution"\n\nIslam belives that God created the whole universe... and we know ,, that after big bang there is a continues evolution in the universe. God says in Quran that first human being was "Adam" , and he was a complete man. Islam believes that "God is also the evolver">>> and we know ,, that when child borns,,, he is not able to sit properly ,, and evolution of his body does takes place. and child grows up. whereever you see,, there is a design in teh evolution... because there is a designer behind that. i.e GOD ALMIGHTY. ... GOD IS THE CREATOR AND SUSTAINER OF ALL THAT EXIST,,,, God makes that child to grow up. SO! WHERE EVER THERE IS A CREATION... GOD IS THE CREATOR,, WHEREEVER THERE IS AN EVOLUTION. GOD IS THE EVOLVER. \n\nTHESE VERSES OF QURAN MIGHT HELP YOU..hope this is clear to you\n\n\n30:27 God begins the process of creation; Then repeats it; and For him it is most easy. Yusaf Ali \n\n24:45 And God created from water every living creature. Some of them walk on their bellies, some walk on two legs, and some walk on four. God creates whatever He wills. God is Omnipotent.

Yes\nIt is Islam.\n\nIslam, a name given by Allah to this religion (Quran 5:4), is an Arabic word which literally means obedience and peace. ISLAM is derived from the Arabic root "SALEMA": peace, purity, submission and obedience. So 'Islam' would mean the path of those who are obedient to Allah and who establish peace with Him and His creatures. Its follower are called Muslims.\n\nIslam is not a new religion. It is, in essence, the same message and guidance which Allah revealed to all prophets before Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Allah says in the Qur’ân:\n\n"Say, `We believe in ALLAH and that which has been revealed to us, and that which was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and in that which was given to Moses and Jesus and other Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them and to HIM we submit." (Qur’ân 3-85)\n\nSix main Articles of faith in Islam\n\nTo believe in the Oneness of Allah. \nTo believe in all His Angels. \nTo believe in all His Books. \nTo believe in all His Prophets. \nTo believe in the Day of Resurrection. \nTo believe in the Decree of Allah \n\nThe Five Pillars of Islam (Declaration of the Islamic Faith)\n\nIn order to enter into the fold of Islam i.e. to be Muslim, one has to know, believe, accept totally and sincerely apply the five basic principles (Pillars) on which Islam is based: Ibn Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah - Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) said: Islam is based on the following five pillars (principles).\n\nBearing witness that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah \nObservance of Prayer \nPaying Zakat \nFasting during Ramadhan \nPilgrimage to the house of Allah.

Islam is a monotheistic Abrahamic religion based on the Qur'an. With approximately 1.2-1.3 billion adherents [1][2], it is the world's second-largest religion. Followers of Islam are known as Muslims. Muslims believe that God (Arabic Allāh) revealed his word to humanity through many earlier prophets, and that Muhammad was the final prophet. Muslims believe that the core message of Islam, which is submission to God, has been the central messages in the teaching of all God's prophets.\n\nSecular historians view the religion as being founded by the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century C.E. The faith went through a period of rapid expansion after the prophet's death, and its followers can be found all over the world today.\n\nenet of Islam is found in the shahādatān ("two testimonies"): lā ilāhā illā-llāhu; muhammadu-r-rasūlu-llāhi — "There is no god but God (Allah) and Muhammad is the messenger of God (Allah)." A person who truly believes in the meaning of these words is a Muslim. However, for practical reasons one may need to recite the words in the presence of witnesses to be considered one by other members of their society.\n\nMuslims believe that God (or, in Arabic, Allāh; also in Aramaic Alaha) revealed his direct word for humanity to Muhammad (c. 570–632) and earlier prophets, including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Muslims believe that Muhammad is the Last, or the Seal, of the prophets and that his teachings for humanity will last until Qiyamah (The Day of the Resurrection). Muslims assert that the main written record of revelation to humanity is the Qur'an (see below), which they believe to be flawless, immutable, and the final revelation of God to humanity. Muslims believe that parts of the Gospels, Torah and Jewish prophetic books have been forgotten, misinterpreted, incorrectly edited by humans, or distorted by their followers and thus their original message has been corrupted over time (tahrif). With that perspective, Muslims view the Qur'an as a correction of Jewish and Christian scriptures, and a final revelation.\n\nMuslims hold that Islam is essentially the same belief as that of all the messengers sent by God to humanity since Adam, with the Qur'an (the text used by all sects of the Muslim faith) codifying the final revelation of God. Islamic texts depict Judaism and Christianity as derivations of the teachings of Abraham and thus acknowledge common Abrahamic roots. The Qur'an calls Jews and Christians (and sometimes people of other faiths) "People of the Book." Historically, the second Caliph Umar ibn Khattab created what came to be known as "the Pact of Umar" in establishing that any people of the book who submitted to Muslim authority as dhimmis during the wars of Muslim expansion retained their freedom of religion and their existing churches.

I dont think you're a Muslim, cause we Muslims dont believe in evolution...\n\nAnyways, I dont believe in such a theory, because it contrdicts with the doctrines of many religions as well as Islam...God is one and only, and Prophet Mohammed (prayers and peace be upon him) is His messenger

Your question alone shows me that you have no idea what Islam is.  Let me put a question to you have you ever read the Holy Quran?  I know the answer is NO.  My friend read it before you talk or atleast visit my site to get some basics about Islam.  http://askmuslims.com\n\nHope to hear from you.  E-mail me....

Muslim, \n       Someone here said that there is no God and it's proven by science and said something about Darwin's theory.\nWell.  1st of all it was just a theory and it was never proven. and later on aftern many years IT WAS PROVEN that his theory was WRONG.  and as far as science is concern, it is not the final word.  scientists creat one medicine and say it's the best and just after few years we find out that this drug has killed that certain amout of people and now it's banned. Like affedra.

You won't find any accurate statistics, but the good question is " WHY "??\nhttp://members.iinet.net.au/~asmaazam/what_doyou_know.htm\n\ntake a look, Islam brief:\n\nand don't belive the west media lies, you search for what Islam says\n\nTHE RELIGION OF ISLAM The first thing that one should know and clearly understand about Islam is what the word \n\n"Islam" itself means. The religion of Islam is not named after a person as in the case of Christianity which was \n\nnamed after Jesus Christ, Buddhism after Gotama Buddha, Confucianism after Confucius, and Marxism after Karl Marx. \n\nNor was it named after a tribe like Judaism after the tribe of Judah and Hinduism after the Hindus. Islam is the \n\ntrue religion of "Allah" and as such, its name represents the central principle of Allah's "God's" religion; \n\nthe total submission to the will of Allah "God". The Arabic word "Islam" means the submission or surrender of one's \n\nwill to the only true god worthy of worship "Allah" and anyone who does so is termed a "Muslim",Islam is the \n\nreligion which was given to Adam, the first man and the first prophet of Allah, and it was the religion \n\nof all the prophets sent by Allah to mankind. The name of God's religion lslam was not decided upon by later \n\ngenerations of man. It was chosen by Allah Himself and clearly mentioned in His final revelation to man. In the \n\nfinal book of divine revelation, the Qur'aan, Allah states the following: "This day have I perfected your religion \n\nfor you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion". (Soorah Al-Maa'idah 5:3) "If \n\nanyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah (God) never will It be accepted of Him" (Soorah \n\nAal'imraan 3:85) "Abraham was not a Jew nor Christian; but an upright Muslim." (Soorah Aal'imraan 3:67)

THANK YOU FOR ASKING ABOUT ISLAM. \n\nIslam believes on one True God without any partner. we muslims call HIm by "Allah"\n\nA person can call Allah by any name but it should be the most beautiful name. for example, Most merciful, Most gracious. Etc\n\n"Say: ‘Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names....‘"[Al-Qur’an chapter 17:verse 110]\n\nThe most concise definition of God in Islam is given in the four verses of Chapter 112 of the Qur’an:\n\n"Say: He is Allah,  The One and Only. "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.\n"He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him."  \n[Al-Qur’an chapter 112: verse 1-4]\n \nIslam comes from the root word salam, which means peace. It also means submitting your will to the will of God almighty. In short Islam means peace acquired by submitting your will to the will of God almighty. Anyone who submits his will to almighty God is a Muslim. \n\nIslam states that Allah sent messengers and prophets throughout the ages with the message of oneness of God, and accountability in the Hereafter. Islam thus makes it an article of faith to believe in all the prophets, starting with Adam, and continuing with Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, John and Jesus, Muhammad amongst many others (may peace be on them all). If any Muslim rejects faith in any of these messengers he ceases to be a Muslim. \n\n"Say: we believe in God and in what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham, Isma'il: Isaac, Jacob and The Tribes, and in (the Books) given to Moses, Jesus and the Prophets, from their Lord: We make no distinction between one and another, among them, and to God do we bow our will (in Islam)."\n(Quran,  3:84 & 2:136) \n\nThere are six beliefs in Islam. \n\nBelieve in oneness of God \nBelieve in His angels, \nBelieve in prophets of God, \nBelieves in books (i.e. the revelations of God almighty), \nBelieve in the day of resurrection, \nBelieve in divine destiny i.e. Qadar \n \n There are five pillars of islam \n\n1.      Testimony of faith i.e. There is no god worthy of being worshipped except Allah, and Mohammad is His Messenger.\n\nPrayers i.e. Salaah \nCharity i.e. Zakaah \nFasting in the whole month of Ramadan i.e. Saum \nPilgrimage i.e. Hajj \n \n \n\nMany people have the misconception that Islam is the new religion and Prophet Muhammad pbuh founded Islam. Prophet Muhammad is not the founder of Islam but he is the last and final messenger of Allah. Islam is there since Man sets foot on Earth. In fact, the first man on earth i.e. Adam pbuh was first messenger of Allah.\n\n \n\nThe messengers before Prophet Muhammad pbuh were only sent for a particular group of people at a particular time period, and their complete message was not sent for the whole of humanity but was only send for a specific group of people at that time period. Prophet Muhammad pbuh was sent for the whole of humanity.\n\nQur’an, is the word of God revealed to His last and final prophet, Mohammed (peace be upon him). The Qur’an is the Last and Final Revelation. All previous Revelations before Qur'an were only sent for a particular group of people and for a particular time period. The Qur’an was Revealed for the Whole of Mankind. \n\nQur'an 14:52 Here is a Message for mankind: Let them take warning therefrom, and let them know that He is (no other than) One Allah. let men of understanding take heed.

Islam (Arabic: الإسلام; al-Islām) means "submission to the will of God". It is a monotheistic faith and the world's second-largest religion. Islam is considered an Abrahamic religion, along with Christianity and Judaism. Followers of Islam, known as Muslims, believe that God (Allāh in Arabic) revealed his divine word directly to humanity through many earlier prophets, and that Muhammad was the final prophet of Islam.
