To become Muslim you have to believe in 5 essential things:\nBelieve in God “Allah” and that he’s the only God and that Mohamed is his prophet.\nTo pray to God\nTo give a specific amount of your money yearly to the poor people.\nTo fast in Ramadan. And fasting means to stop drinking, eating bad doing anything bad from sunrise to sunset.\nAnd to go to Mecca for Hajj at least once in your life if you had the money and the good health to do so.\nIf you did these five things then you’re Muslim. And then, after you become one, you shouldn’t drink alcohol, eat pork, gamble and lots more… so if some Muslim ate pork on purpose I wouldn’t say that he’s not Muslim, I would say that he’s not good Muslim. But if he doesn’t believe in God or that Mohamed is his prophet I would say that he’s not Muslim.\nIf course, saying that Mohamed the prophet of God doesn’t mean that he’s his only prophet. Muslims believe that Muses, Abraham, Jesus and lots of others are all the prophets of God.\n\nI hope that this answers your question

Any person who declares their faith in Islam these days needs to know they won't be the most popular kid on the block. The tragedy of September 11th, is something that will never be forgotten and unfortuneately it's perpetrators were Arabs. No matter how vehemently any Muslim would seek to explain the differences between true Islam and Arab nationalism, it simply won't wash with your average American. It's all the same in just about everyone's eyes. So whomever is truly seeking to become a muslim nowadays better know, He or she is surely going to be tested for their faith.

At the bottom of this page there are some Interesting Facts based on this list. \n\nMany of the figures here are estimates. Different methods have been used to collect these figures. Where possible, the figures shown here are for adherents, a larger and more inclusive figure than members. Details may be found in the detailed source notes for each group found in the main Adherents.com listing, although currently a few of the religious bodies on this list are not yet incorporated into the main, online Adherents.com database. (At the end of this document is a list of the world's largest international religious bodies, shown in bold in the main list.) \n\nReligious Body Number of Adherents \nCatholic Church** 1,100,000,000 \nSunni Islam* 1,000,000,000 \n\n\nIn terms of practicing adherents, there are more Sunni Muslims than there are Catholics

The coordinated efforts of islamic forces is not new; just look at Kosovo and Chechnya.  We've read of converted muslims leaving the US to help these efforts abroad.  The main problem, and the thing the average american doesn't realize, is most of these forces have personnel trained by US special forces and/or CIA when we assisted Iraq during the Iran/Iraq war and in aid of Afghanistan during the Afghan-Soviet war, so it's going to become increasingly difficult to capture key persons when they have our playbook (for that terrain)\n\nIf anyone knows future al-Quida movements, they surely couldn't share them in this forum.  As an opinion, I feel a strong effort needs to be initiated to work with the ruling bodies in the region so that stronger governments arise, lessening the attraction of these off-shoot groups.  The only way this is feasible is if we start approaching the leaders from a position they are more comfortable with and that begins with sending envoys who understand and appreciate their culture.  Just as the FBI couldn't infiltrate the Black Panthers due to lack of black agents, we won't be able to gain full confidence until we can send some US representives over with whom the common man in the Mid East can relate.  The problem is, I'm not sure that is a priority and I worry that diplomacy is taking a back seat.  Egypt is increasingly turning anti-American on a grassroots level and you see more and more persons of higher stature (professors, physicians, lawyers) becoming involved in local politics in the region and they aren't preaching US policy.

I think that the best way to let your religion gain followers is by actually practicing it, or in your case, being a good Christian.\n\nThe only way people get converted is if they want it themselves. You can't push people into converting (as in relly converting, not just pretending). People who have strong beliefs in whatever they believe are unlikely to change their mind, no matter how often you tell them they're going to hell and no matter how often you quote the Bible. You only annoy them and give them feelings of persecution if you keep forcing your religion down their throats against their will.\n\nBut there are some people who aren't sure or are still searching for something. It's those people who might convert and the best way to attract them is by showing them the true colors of your religion. Practice what you preach and let them see the beauty in your religion. That is likely to inspire them to find out more and even convert eventually.\n\nChristians who preach without practicing what they preach are hypocrites and it's people like that who push possible converts away and gain enemies among firm non-Christians. Why would anyone want to convert to a religion whose own followers don't even bother following as much as the main message of the religion?

First, you need to posses a very charismatic personality and have the ability to get people follow your every word.  You also need a have a slightly distorted vision on what life in your country should be.  Once those are in place you then need to systematically get people to believe in your vision and have them vowel to lay down their lives for you and your cause.  Once this is in place you then create a plan of the most vulnerable areas and begin to gain a strong hold in these areas. Once that is accomplished you then eliminate your opposition and start laying down rules and punishments for the unconverted masses.  Once all this is completed and you are in power, you then need to rule with an iron fist and make examples of those who reject your thinking.  Just make sure you are surrounded by people who you most trust.  \nGood luck in your future endeavors.

The United States Congress is divided into two houses, the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House has 435 members, with the numbers from each state based on the population of the state, while the Senate has 100 members, two from each state. Every two years, the entire House and 1/3 of the Senate goes up for election. As of now, there are no Muslims in Congress, and I know of none that ever have. There do not appear to be any Muslims who have announced their candidacy for Senate. The list of candidates so far is in the first source below. The election is not until November 2006, so there will likely be more candidates. There is, unfortunately, no list of all candidates for the House, but the other source has a list of key races in the election. I can't find anything online mentioning Muslim candidates. There will likely be more info as the election nears.

Holy war.\n\nI looked it up.\n\nJihad, in Islam, the spiritual struggle against evil. Jihad is the duty of all mainstream Muslims, or Sunnites. There are four ways they may fulfill a jihad: by the heart, the tongue, the hand, and the sword. These refer to the inner, spiritual battle of the heart against vice, passion, and ignorance; spreading the word of Islam with one's tongue; choosing to do good and avoiding evil with one's hand; and waging war against non-Muslims with the sword. Most modern branches of Islam stress the inner, spiritual jihad. But Islamic law also states that all nations must surrender to Islamic rule, if not its faith. The Koran states that those who die in a jihad become martyrs of the faith, acquiring a special place in heaven.
