what u wrote clarifies that u don't know anything about any religion.\nAny way.... I'm Muslim & I'm PROUD of my religion & The Holy QURAN which is revealed by Allah to His prophet Muhammed PBUH.\n\n"Alif Laam Raa. A book which we have revealed to you (Muhammad) so that you may lead the people from out of the darknesses into the light by their Lord's leave to the path of the All-Mighty, the Praiseworthy." [Qur'an 14:1] \nSo.....\n\nDon't say writers.........our holy book QURAN is revealed by Allah.\nit's the words of Allah.\n\nlet's talk logically...\n1st... \nProphet Muhammed lived his life in the Arab land & never read about Hinduism, judaism, zorastrianism  ..... simply coz he was illiterate.(PBUH)\nNotice that Allah has chosen him PBUH to be the last prophet and to TEACH us how to live in peace & worship ALLAH , the Creator of the whole universe.\n\n2nd.....\nDo u consider it logical for a religion -supposed to be a religion calling for Tawheed ( worshipping only one God)- to borrow from other believes & thoughts that associate others with God in His Divinity ?!!\n\n3rd...\nthere is nothing called islamic or non-islamic version of paradise.... All religions that came from God has the same paradise.\n\n4th....\nthe five prayers of Muslim were not 5.....actually they were 50\nin the night of Israa & Miraj......\nthe Prophet (PBUH) began his ascent through the seven heavens, where he saw the other prophets till he reached Sadrat Al-Muntaha, the remotest lote tree, symbolizing the end of worldly knowledge. He was then taken before the Divine Presence. Allah enjoined the Muslims to perform salah (ritual Prayers) 50 times a day. After his audience with Allah and on his way down, Muhammad (PBUH) met Musa (Moses PBUH), who asked him how many Prayers were laid upon his followers. When the Prophet (PBUH) replied 50, Musa (PBUH) told him that the congregational Prayer is heavy and your people are weak. He advised him to go back and ask Allah to reduce them. Muhammad (PBUH) made several trips back and forth, and each time The Merciful reduced the number, till finally He reduced it to 5 Prayers a day and if they are performed properly the worshipper will be given credit for 50.\n\nIs this present in zorastrianism???\n\nWaiting for ur replies.....waiting for more examples to discuss.\n\n\n\nThose who remember Allah, standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth: "O Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to You! So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire." \n(Surat Al 'Imran: 191)\n\n\nThese will help u....\nstudy them ..... \n\nConsept of worship \nhttp://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/tawheed/conceptofworship.html\n\nIsraa& miraj......prayers\nhttp://www.islamicity.com/mosque/isra/\n\nhttp://www.islamonline.net/English/introducingislam/Prophet/Life/article04.shtml

Islam.\n\nBecause it makes sense.\n\nEverything about Islam is good.  I think the best part is the message of equality of all men and women that it brought in the 7th century. :)

i wud like ya to tell...that read both scriptures..Bible and Quran..n decide...which one is best......\n\nto know about islam ... ya can add me .. afrasiyabk@yahoo.com \n\nIslam is a Semitic religion, which has over one billion adherents all over the world. Islam means "submission to the will of God". Muslims accept the Qur’an, as the word of God revealed to His last and final prophet, Mohammed (peace be upon him). Islam states that Allah sent messengers and prophets throughout the ages with the message of Unity of God, and accountability in the Hereafter. Islam thus makes it an article of faith to believe in all the earlier prophets, starting with Adam, and continuing with Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, John and Jesus amongst many others (may peace be on them all).\n\nISLAM IS THE FASTEST GROWING RELIGION OF THE WORLD.\n\nAccording to the statistics of USA.more then 400 pple accept Islam every day..in USA.....and the growth increased after 9/11...do u know why? read Qu'ran with understanding.....after 9/11 ..when media started misrepresent islam...pple started to learn about Islam...and they read scriptures , hadiths etc...which they found a true religion ....thats why Islam is the fastest growing religion....\n\n\nPEACE.

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.

Islam isn't really an "offshoot" of Judaism. And Judaism predates Islam by thousands of years.

schneb, on the contrary, 2500 B.C the cannanites from southeast Arab occupied the area and were said to be the first to occupy the land. They were said to be the first to name the area Urusalem i.e. Jerusalem. The first king and religious leader of the tribe was Sadek. It was said that during the time of Sadek, Abraham (a prophet in Islam as well as few other religions) brought Islam to the area.\n\nIt should be understood that for Muslims, the religions of their forefathers' prophets has always been Islam i.e. Adam is a muslim, Abraham is a muslim, Moses is a muslim, King David is a muslim as well as Solomon and Jesus. Mohammed was sent to redirect the faulty that mankind has created in this initially pure religion by altering and mending the books of God i.e. Torah, Bible and Zabur (sorry not sure of the English translation for this particular book). The Quran is, as believed by the muslims, words of God that corrects the amendments as well as bringing the messege of God's One-ness.\n\n2000 B.C. the Amorites (from the same origin as the Cannanites) joined in with the Cannanites followed by the Phonicians that came from the north.\n\nThen only at around 1300-1200 BC, the Philistines race occupied the south of Jerusalem. It is believed that it was around this time that Moses and his followers left ancient Egypt which was then (believed to be) ruled by Ramses II. His followers were said to be of 6000-8000 people. They occupied East of Jerusalem i.e. East of Dead Sea which did put pressure on the Cannanites, the original occupier of that area.\n\nThe Quran doesn;t mention Jerusalem by Jerusalem or by its arabic name,Baitul Maqdis. The Quran refers it by the name of the Holy Mosque within Jerusalem, Masjid Al-Aqsa.\n\nIt was between 1025-586 BC that the Israelites, followers of a few prophets in Islam (different time span), e.g. King David and Solomon, occupied Jerusalem. It was also within this time that the First Temple was built i.e. around 3000 years ago.\n\n586 BC - King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon conquered the Israelites and brought them to Babylon as prisoners of war. It was between this time that the Old Testament was WRITTEN.\n\n539-331 BC - Persian King, Cyrus defeated the babylonians and conquered Jerusalem. He allowed the Israelites brought to  Babylon (above) to come back to Jerusalem.\n\nThe authorities in Jerusalem changed hands quite a few time after that, starting with Alexander the Great of Macedonia, Maccabean Jews, King Titus of Rome (that completely destroyed the Temple and killed many Jewish people in Jerusalem), Uryanus of Rome (prevent a rebellion from Jews at 117-138 AD and almost wiped out the whole Jewish population in Jerusalem) and finally the Byzantine Empire until 636 AD when Muslims under the leadership of Umar Al-Khattab, the 2nd caliph after the life of Mohammed.\n\nThus, it is almost impossible that Jerusalem been a Jewish capital for 3300 years if there were so many empires taking turns to conquer Jerusalem, what more with the likes of mighty Rome.\n\n363 AD, the muslims take over Jerusalem from Byzantine under the Umariyah Peace Treaty. There was no war on that day, as the Byzantine surrendered peacefully.\n\n7th June 1099, the Crusades army took over Jerusalem. 70,000 people were killed despite seeking refuge in mosques. They remained in charge for 91 years.\n\nBetween then and 1187, battles took place between the muslim army lead by Salahuddin Al-Ayubi (Saladin) and the crusades army. A 3 year ceasefire treaty was signed between the 2 parties. But during the early months of 1187, Arnat, one of the generals in the crusade army broke that treaty by ambushing a muslim trade convoy from Egypt to Damascus. Saladin demanded the convoy to be released but Arnat replied synically, "Tell Mohammed to release you all" At that time, Saladin swore to kill Arnat.\n\nMay 1187, Battle of Shufuriyyah between the muslim army and the Crusade army took place to lure the crusade army out of th

Yes. Islam is the latest in history, which was preached through rulers' patronage either by invasions or by conversion. So, St. Pittsburgh was a place of Christians which got converted to Islam at one stage of history. Within first 100 years of Muhammad's death 90%  of European population was converted on point of sword to Islam, but later again through wars they got reconverted to their original faith.

Islam has yet to reach its peak. It came into existence roughly 400 years after Christianity and is making steady progress. By the time it is matured it will probably be the dominant religion (and a new one will be in its infancy)

islam does not teach peace mercy and forgivenes. it teaches hate racism and the killing of innocent people. what other religion teaches that if you blow your self up you will be rewarded with 72 virgins. this is a crazy an violent religion.

I have said this now for years, and I say it because I believe it to be true. (Note here: This is in no way meant to put down any one or any faith. Its just an opinion, based on a variety of reasons that I won't go into here. Going into my reasons here now would take to much time and detail.) From a monotheistic standpoint, given the Abrahamic tradition, Islam is the only truly viable religion in the world today. And that is my main thought concerning Islam. ~ Peace & Blessings ~
