No one is comparable to Him.’” (112:1-4). “Say, ‘He is God the One, God the eternal. God describes Himself in the holy book of Muslims, the Quran (also spelled ‘Koran’), by stating: Arabic-speaking Jews and Christians also refer to God as Allah. Muslims often refer to God as Allah, which simply means “God” in the Arabic language. Muslims are encouraged to develop a direct and personal relationship with God without any intermediaries. God is the Creator of everything in the universe and is unique from His creation. The most essential principle in Islam is the purely monotheistic belief in one God. Today, Islam is one of the fastest growing religions and is practiced by more than 1.2 billion Muslims across the world. A Muslim is someone who adopts the Islamic way of life by believing in the Oneness of God and the prophethood of Muhammad, peace be upon him (pbuh). Islam is a faith and comprehensive way of life that literally means ‘peace through submission to God.’ It provides a clear understanding of a person’s relationship with God, purpose in life, and ultimate destiny. This brochure introduces the central themes of Islam and its core components – with a special focus on our purpose in life and the all-encompassing nature of Islam. Additionally, Islam reiterates a return to basic principles of faith: belief in one God, righteous living, and faith in the afterlife. Meticulously preserved and thoroughly documented, Islam’s message has a familiar resonance, owing to its shared history and common values, with Abrahamic religions. Islam completes the long chain of guidance from God to humanity.
