I disagree with you freaky gal. Islam is not a country but a religion. Muslims believe in one God( Allah) and His messenger ( Prophet Muhammad).

The word Islam in Arabic is a derivation of the word "Slm" which in Arabic means submission or to make peace with. By becoming a Muslim a person forms a covenant with Allah and other fellow believers. A Muslim submits his personal will, accepting the will of Allah and believing in a system ordained by God. A Muslim is supposed to be peaceful with his fellow human beings, Allah's creation and the world and is supposed to spend his life with modesty observing the conjunctions laid by the Divine Law as presented in the Holy Quran. There are seven pillars of Muslim faith which preclude as a condition to believe in Allah, Allah's Angels, Allah's books which are Torah, Bible and the Quran, Allah's Prophets which he sent to the human race for guidance, on the day of judgement and destiny of all good and evil that befells a person.

Don't tell me its christianity cause chistians belivie in A LIE!!!!! If you don't belivie me then hell will tell you.

ALLAH TALA know best.

          Islam is based on the concept that there is only one GOD and Mohammad (P.B.you.H) is last prophet of ALLAH.  He created every thing including living and non living things. Adam was the first human who was created by God. Hazrat Mohammad (P.B.you.H), is revered as the prophet of ALLAH (God), for completing the work of earlier prophets of Judaism and Christianity, including Moses, David and Jesus all of them were Prophet of ALLAH.

          Quran is the holy book of Muslims. The Quran, the words of ALLAH revealed to Hazrat Mohammad (P.B.you.H) that contains not only the rules for worship but also complete guidance about the creation of life.Quran tells about all the basic principals of life. There are five basic pillars in Islam. Islam gives a lesson of unity, love and care.

          In Islam there is no difference on the basis of color, race or caste. In Islam every one is equal. The basic concepts of Islam includes respect your parents, your teachers, be nice to your neighbors, protect the right of others. In Islam there is a concept of heaven and hell.Heaven is for those who follow the right path, and Hell is for those who do not follow the right path. Thus Islam provides us complete balanced and simple life.

Islam is not a new religion, but the same truth that God revealed through all His prophets to every people. For a fifth of the world's population, Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. Muslims follow a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the majority have nothing to do with the extremely grave events which have come to be associated with their faith.

Muslims believe in One, Unique, Incomparable God; in the Angels created by Him; in the prophets through whom His revelations were brought to mankind; in the Day of Judgement and individual accountability for actions; in God's complete authority over human destiny and in life after death. Muslims believe in a chain of prophets starting with Adam and including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John the Baptist, and Jesus, peace be upon them. But God's final message to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message and a summing-up of all that has gone before was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through Gabriel.

Simply by saying 'there is no god apart from God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.' By this declaration the believer announces his or her faith in all God's messengers, and the scriptures they brought.
