Islam is a monotheistic faith that emerged in the 7th century CE in the Arabian Peninsula, founded on the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad as conveyed through the Quran, which Muslims regard as the literal word of God. The religion emphasizes submission to Allah (God) and encompasses a comprehensive way of life, including spiritual, ethical, and social dimensions, articulated through its Five Pillars: declaration of faith, prayer, almsgiving, fasting during Ramadan, and pilgrimage to Mecca. With over a billion adherents worldwide, Islam is not only a religious identity but also a rich cultural tapestry that influences art, law, politics, and community life across diverse societies.
