A Muslim is a person who follows the path of Islam. The holy book of Islam is the Qur'an. Like any other religion it also has its holy book. Islam is a religion that is growing at an accelerating rate. Muslims have to pray 5 times a day. Each prayer has its own name. It goes in order the prayers are Fajir, Duhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha.
Islam is my religion that is why it is very important to me. My entire on my mothers side have been Muslims since as long as we have known. My mom is a Muslim and I am too. I also need to learn about it as much as I can. I want to be faithful to my god that is why I am a Muslim. I believe that this religion is the right path (I am saying this as my own opinion).
Islam fascinates me that is why I chose it. Being Muslim is kind of fun. The cool thing about it is that you can have some privileges that some other kids who are Muslim can't. This only applies to boys and girls who are Muslim. Since I am a guy I get more privileges than Muslim women. Which is kind of cool but is kind of bad at the same time? For example when you go to a funeral only the boy are allowed to the graves. The women have to stay behind. I chose it above all so that I could hit two birds with one stone. I would get my I-Search done and learn more about Islam.
What I Knew
I knew a lot about my topic when I started out. My entire family on my mother's side is Muslim. I knew that Jesus was a prophet and Muslims believe that Jesus is not the son of god. The signs of our hands in Arabic it says “Allah” which means “God” but it only says that when you put your hands together. The Qur'an is Muslims Holy book which we learn a lot from. Young Muslim kids have to memorize the entire Qur'an from cover to cover which 300 pages or more I am no very sure.
I wasn't really sure about the Muslim version of Jesus went. I always thought of the Christian way happened I didn't even know about the Muslim version of how the story went. I also didn't know that there were Muslim wars. I always thought that Muslims were peaceful all the time but sometimes we have to fight for our god.
These are the question I had about my topic before I started my search. How one religion became into many religions? Why some people detest Muslims? How one man or prophet could change the minds and control thousands? How he can convert thousands of people's minds to become Muslims? Why did God just not tell us himself? (I am sure nobody would forget that)
The rock in Mecca when it is full of sins and can't hold any more then what will happen? Because the more sins it takes the darker it becomes it is dark black now. It used to be white when it came down from heaven. When will judgment day come? That is the last day of every thing. What will happen to us all?
Islam: Islam and Muslims
Muslims now form the largest religious minority in Britain. They have also migrated too many countries in Europe, particularly France, Germany, and Holland. History books dealing with thirteenth and fourteenth centuries even up to nineteenth century reveal that their was a huge Muslim Empire occupying nearly the whole what is now known as Eastern Europe, including Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, and even portions of the USSR (Ashraf 1). Muslims were practically ruling on that side of the world.
Since the crusaders there has often been a misunderstanding and wrong presentation of Islam. Now that Muslims are living in Britain, non-Muslims need to get an accurate picture of these people and their religion. As their religion provides Muslims with a complete way of life, it is necessary for everyone to understand what Islam means and how its followers live, what they believe in and how they work according to their beliefs of themselves and the country as a whole (2). Muslims want everyone to know our religion. So that they can fully understand us.
At the rate at which people are becoming Muslim then soon Muslims will rule the entire world. Most of the world population will be Muslims. Islam is one of the biggest religions in the world. Muslims want people to understand our religion and how we live. We want them to know how we abide to our laws. So that when they understand stand us they might become Muslims also.
