Islam is a religion. The followers of Islam (mostly called Muslims) believe in Allah which is Arabic for God. The name, "Allah", is used in some phrases people think are racist such as, "Allahu akbar" which is supposed to mean, "God is great.". However because of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the sentence is usually frowned upon. Some people think the Muslims support explosions and war, but that is not true. Because of ISIS, some people think Islam is a religion of hate which is not true. In fact, Islam is supposed to be an extremely peaceful religion. Furthermore, Islam strictly forbids the consumption of anything made out of pigs because of the unhealthy traits of pigs and their meat. Also, the Muslims forbid the consumption of alcohol because they thought it was one of the works of Satan himself. However, the Muslims allow the smoking of Hookah because it is neutral, but most Muslims say that those who refrain from doing Hookah will most likely be rewarded. In conclusion, this is Islam.

A religion that focuses on peace and Allah. Allah means god, as people may think because of 9/11 and terrorist attacks, that all people of Islam or Muslims are terrible people . They are encouraged by people sending more hate. They pray and obey one god , Allah ,on hopes of going the Jannah , heaven instead of hellfire. They go to mosques were they pray and have lessons and celebrations. They have a time period were they fasting, they wake up before sunrise eat and drink then no more food until after sun set . It teaches you to be mindful and caring for 30 days . After Its a holiday , the fasting is called Ramadan and the holiday is called Eid . They pray 5 times a day. They use the Quran as a guidance . Muslim in not pronounced mozlam it is pronounced how it is spelled.

The religion that all the prophets including but not limited too: Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed, believed in. Islam means to submit. By doing so you and I are submitting to the one creator that has created us and sent us down here to worship him and test us. Most religions have taught us to not worship idols or humans which correlates with the practice of Islam. In Islam god is perfect and he does not need sleep, rest, food, water or any substances imperfect humans need to survive. Islam has perfected the way of worship and way of life we were meant to live in this world.
Islam does not believe that Jesus was sacrificed by the father for our sins. Allah loved Jesus so much that he elevated him in the heavens until he decides to bring him back to guide us once again.
Judge judy would not sacrifice her beloved daughter or son so the she would find it in herself to forgive criminals of their crimes one day.
Say, he is God the ONE.
God, the Absolute.
He begets not, nor has he be gotten.
And there is nothing comparable to him.

Islam is not supportive of terrorism

As a practicing Muslim, some of these definitions are really hurtful. Let's get a few things straight. First of all, it is against Sharia (Islamic law) to force others to convert to Islam, to kill someone because they do not follow Islam, or to commit suicide. In fact, most of the terrorists you hear of today are NOT Muslims, even if they may call themselves Muslims. Islam is actually a peaceful religion, based on the learnings of a man who married a non-Muslim. If what some people here said is true, he would have had to kill his own wife. And for the information of some ignorant people, the only reason blood was shed during the initial spread of Islam from Medina was because people attacked Muhammad and his followers. And if you say that Islam cannot be true because it is absurd, then I say look it up. It is no more absurd than Judaism or Buddhism, and certainly less absurd than Christianity. So, I hope that some people who read this will understand that Islam is NOT equal to terrorism, and is a religion that can be respected and has followers with feelings. And if you are too narrow minded to realize this, then, !أنصرف معك!
Jim: Islam sucks. All its followers are violent extremists.

Islam, a religion everyone failed to define correctly.
Islam teaches Muslims (the people who believe in the One and Only God, Allah(S.W.T)) to respect everyone even if it's a elderly or a young, even if it's a man, woman or any other believer.
Islam is a religion of peace (and I mean it literally), beauty and many more. It doesn't teach violence AT ALL.
Qur'an is Muslims' Holy book. (just like Bible is of Christians)
It shows us the right path, it's a cure when in need, it's a reward.
It's not a cult nor does it encourage terrorism.
Prophets are our leaders and most specifically Muhammed (P.B.U.H) is going to be our Leader till the Day of Judgement (end of the world basically).
In order to travel the right way, it has some rules and it is there for a reason. For e.g. Halal-Haram.
Halal is permissible or lawful and Haram is prohibited. We have some things prohibited and it is for a reason. (Let's all wait till 'the scientific researchers' find it's bad for the body and Muslims will be there nodding their heads knowingly)
Islam is beautiful. Instead of hate, it promotes love.

IT IS ALL ABOUT SEX, INCEST, MURDERING PEOPLE WHO SPEAK AGAINST THEM, RAP-
Me: Honey stop wasting your time listening to Immature people saying something they don't even know of with their poor researching abilities and make it useful by actually reading from a rightful source. Don't copy paste what other people wrote wrong about it.
People who defined Islam: B-b-but I know Islam more than you okay? I know the truth!!1!1
me: Stop it gurlie

Islam means submission to God. God translated in the Arabic language is "Allah". This religion is a peaceful religion but not a pacifist religion. It is a religion that is practical. Verses in the Quran that people take out of context make it look like the whole religion is evil. Yes there is war in Islam but it is not just to spread violence. It is usually used fir self defense. God also prohibits Muslims in war to hurt women, children, the elderly, or even a tree, yes even a tree.
Islam does not preach to hate all non Muslims. Prophet muhammed in fact allowed traveling Christians to spend the night and even pray in his mosque before.
There's so much more incidents and facts to prove that Islam is not the violent evil religion people think it is.
Islam is about rationally submitting to God after being convinced Islam is the truth. The Quran is filled with historical, geographical, linguistic, and scientific miracles like the Big Bang.
It's not blind faith. It's based off pure logic and reason and of course faith.
