What is the origin of Muslim?
467745
Prophet Mohammad wrote the Quran, the foundation of Islam. Muslim means "one who submits" and Islam means "submission". These are references to submitting to God and His will. It is related to the Jewish faith in that Muslims believe that there has forever been only one faith. It just gets regular updates from Allah when needed. So ... God sent Prophet Moses. Latter God sent Prophet Jesus. Then God sent Prophet Mohammad. In Islam this represents a steady, unbroken stream of faith. And for what its worth ... Arabic and Aramaic are closely related languages. Aramaic would have been the everyday language Jesus used. The word for God is the same in both. Its Allah.

The real reasons seem to go back to the days of the Crusades and following invasion of Europe by Muslims.\nChristians and Muslims have been at each other's throats for centuries.  All in the name of God or Allah as the case may be.

It is very much true that both Jesus, as well as, Mary were muslim. A muslim does not mean that he should necessarily be an Arab or an asian. \nA muslim may be any one, irrespective of his race, nation, clan, etc. who does not follow his own will or desire , but totally surrenders before the will of Almighty God. The first man, Adam, who was the first prophet of God also, was appointed to convey to his descendants the way of life, which God designed for human being.\nThousands of prophets, including Noah, Abraham, Issac, Ishmael, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, John, Jesus and the last one, Muhammad were appointed the same way by God all over the world, during different times, who all had the same message, same mission.\nThese prophets, beside other aspects of life, had explained what should be the dress code and appearance code of a believer or a muslim. It never meant that particular style or cloth's cutting or particular type of beard should be adopted, but the dress should be simple, neither extravagant nor exposing directly or indirectly any or all prohibited body parts, as defined by God. The beard should be such that the man may be recognized that he is from the group of believers.\nAlas! the people of book have every thing in the book but do not follow deliberately. May God guide them to the right path! Amen.

christanity and islam both originate from jewism. the difference is that jews accept only the old testament, while christians and muslims accept the new testament too. christians believe the christ is the son of god, muslims believe he is a prophet but not son of god, and jews that he is just an ordinary human, not a prophet nor a son of god

First let me correct your question. The right word here to use is " Muslim Reverts ". A Non-Muslim is reverted to Islam but not converted. According to Holy Q'uran, Every human being by birth is a Muslim. Muslim means, " One  Who  Submits  His  Will  To Allah(SWT) ".\n\n If that child is born to a Non-muslim then that child owns the religion of his father after certain age unfortunately.\n\nNow the answer for your question. The only condition for a Non-muslim to revert to Islam is that, he has to say from his heart the Kalima " LAA    ILAAHA    ILLALLAAH    MUHAMMADUR    RASOOLULLAAH " . This means, " There  is  None  Worthy  Of  Worship  But  ALLAH(SWT)  &  MUHAMMED (PBUH)  is  ALLAH (SWT)  Messenger ". \nIf you say this then only u r reverted to Islam. Thats it.\n\nAnyone who kills in the name of religion that person has nothing to do with that religion.\n\nPLEASE  PLEASE  PLEASE  SEE  THIS SOURCE :http://www.kavalec.com/thisisislam.swf\n\n" ... whosoever  killeth  a  human being,  it  shall  be  as i f  he  had  killed   whole  of  mankind  &  whosoever  saveth  a  human being,  it  shall  be  as  if  he  had  saved  whole  of  mankind... "\n                                                                     ( the Holy Q'uran 5:32 )\n\nGot it.

Their religion is probably Muslim...however, from what I know about the tenants of the Muslim religion, what these people are doing have nothing to do with the generally peaceful Muslim religion.

What evidence do you need? They've been murdering each other for as many centuries as the Islamic faith has existed. Islam was invented in the late 7th century.  Early in the 8th century it had already caused so much bloodshed and suffering, such a change in the tribal power structure that in Arabia a power-struggle began over who were the legitimate heirs of "the prophet", i.e. heirs of the power for rule and conquest that Islam supposed.  The majority of moslems are "ahl as-sunnah wa al-jumah" (people of the community); the shiah believe the imam must be descended from Ali by Muhammed's daughter, Fatima, a bit like saying the President should be a direct descendent of Jesus Christ (or Alexander the Great) since Jesus didn't go about murdering his enemies.

Because early Muslim thought included the belief in the superiority of the Arab race. This is why it was stressed that the Arabs were descendants of Ishmael. As Islam spread to non Arab lands or people became Arabized(the Egyptians/North Africans/Syrians etc. originally spoke other languages, not Arabic) the theory of Arab superiority became a theological liability- especially since a majority of Muslims were no longer Arab.\n\nThe language thing is the only thing left in the original Arab master race theory of Islam, other than isolated hadiths.

In Arabic, "Mu" means someone who does..\n\nMuslims practice the religion of Islam\n...."Mu" + "Islam" = "Muslim"\n\nthis HAS to be a best answer....

Am not a Muslim, but might have a lot to do with the fact that Islam as a religion only started about 1400 years ago, therefor there doctrine would supersede the words of the Mosaic laws as they received the New Words of God at this time!

Well, must say some very creative ansers here! Islam doesn't claim a name to any original language, or not to my knowledge anyways. The original language of Islam was Arabic, but not of mankind. Both Arabic and Hebrew stemmed from Aramaic, which came from another language, which came from another.... so Hebrew also is not the original language of mankind, nor of Abraham, as it is believed that even Jesus spoke Aramaic, not Hebrew.\n\nSo basically nothing in Islam lays a claim to that question, and to be honest, I don't believe that question has ever been asked, so I gotta give kudos for going beyond the normal boundaries and for such creativity!

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.

Arab is an ethnic term and Muslim is a religious term. Not all Arabs are Muslim and not all Muslims are Arabs.\nAn Arab is a person from Arabia.\nA Muslim is one who accepts Islaam as his religion. \n\nBoth Isaac (pbuh) and Ismael (pbuh) were prophets.\nIshmael (pbuh) was the one who was offered for sacrifice.\nIshmael (pbuh) was the first born.\n\nBoth Abraham (pbuh) and Ishmael (pbuh) built the Kaa'ba in Makkah.\nIshmael (pbuh) lived in Makkah.\nGod ordered Abraham (pbuh) to take Ishmael (pbuh) and Hagar to Makkah before Ishmael (pbuh) was weaned.\n\nMuhammed (pbuh) is a descendant of Abraham (pbuh) from his son Ishmael (pbuh).\nMoses (pbuh) and Jesus (pbuh) are descendants of Abraham (pbuh) from his son Ishaac (pbuh).\n\nYes! The roots are the same.
