13 Islam The term Islam means to submit Religion Islam To Submit Follower Muslim One Who Submits
14 Islam Terms Shahadah: There is no god but God and Muhammad is the Messenger of God. Allah: Arabic name for God. It is preferred over other names because it has no gender affiliation and does not have plurality
15 Beliefs 1. Belief in only One God. He is defined as Eternal, Absolute, Infinite, Compassionate and Merciful, the sole Creator and Provider. 2. Engage only in Righteous Actions in all areas: spiritual, intellectual and physical activity. 3. All God s creation is Muslim. Only humans are given CHOICE to submit (be Muslim) or reject submission to God s will. 4. All children are born without sin and are Muslim. As they grow older, they make their religious CHOICE. 5. God created human beings with a body and soul. The body is a temporal host for this life, whereas the soul is eternal. It is the soul that will survive beyond death. 6. Universality of the call. All Muslims are brothers and equals without any distinction of class, race or tongue. Superiority is only based on the greater fear of God and greater piety.

31
32 PROPHET S MOSQUE in Madinah: the first mosque in Islam
33 Qur an Holy book of Islam which means recitation Records the revealed word of God that came through Angel Gabriel to Muhammad over 23 years Muhammad dictated revelations to scribes and companions who memorized passages It is the only revealed book that has remained intact and unchanged since its revelation (oral tradition) Principle source of Muslim faith and practice Children learn to memorize the Qur an as a child Divided into 114 suras (chapters); longest chapter has 286 verses, the shortest has 3 verses; approximately words in length
34 al-fatihah (The Opening) Qur an 1: 1-7 In the name of Allah, Most Gracious Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds. Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Master of the Day of Judgment. Thee do we worship and Thine aid we seek: Show us the straight way. The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose portion is not wrath and who go not astray.
35 Other Prophets These Prophets are regarded as most significant: Muhammad, Moses, Abraham and Noah Jesus is highly respected and considered as a great prophet by Muslims Qur an re-affirms the miraculous birth and abilities of Jesus Muslims believe in the Second Coming of Jesus before the end of time
36 Crash Course Islam
37 Human Equality O humankind! You were created from a single soul, male and female, and made you into peoples and tribes. So that you may know one another. Truly, the most honoured of you in God s sight is the greatest of you in piety. God is All Knowing, All Aware (Qur an 49:13)
38 Islam and War Like Christianity, Islam permits fighting in self defense, in defense of religion, or on the part of those who have been expelled forcibly from their homes Strict rules for combat, which includes prohibitions against harming civilians and against destroying crops, trees and livestock Fight in the cause of God against those who fight you, but do not transgress limits. God does not love transgressors (Qur an 2:190) And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for God. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrongdoers (Qur an 2:193)
39 Day of Judgment All humans will be bodily resurrected and assembled for final accounting of deeds Soul will move on to afterlife Upon the Final Judgment = world will end and we will stand before God to confront our own life and actions Desire for purified soul= heaven (eternal abode of beauty and majesty) Disbelievers and unpure soul= hell (abode of great torment and anguish)
40 Jihad Jihad does not mean holy war Literally, jihad means to strive, struggle and exert effort. Concept includes struggle against evil inclinations within oneself, struggle to improve quality of life in society, struggle in the battlefield for self defense or fighting against tyranny or oppression There is no such thing as holy war in Islam, but it is the frequent repetition in the West that many people accept it as if it were a fact
41 Women s Rights According to Qur an, men and women are equal before God Under Islamic law, women have the right to own property, receive an education and take part in community life Islamic rules for simple, modest and dignified dress applies to women and men equally In many Muslim countries there are cultural practices that are inconsistent and contrary to the authentic teachings of Islam
42 Islam: Controversial Issues Polygamy Jihad vs. Holy War Hijab : liberation or suppression Muhammad Cartoons: freedom of speech vs freedom of religion Appeal of Suicide Bombers Afghanistan's Taliban War on Islam
