A religion based on manners and one that is often connected with terrorism. However, Islam is a religion, and terrorists are extremists in the religion and believe Islam is something it is not. Islam is not a religion of violence, which people often mistake it for. Muslims believe there is one and only 1 God, and Mohammad Peace Be Upon Him is his Messenger.

the religion of the Muslims, a monotheistic faith regarded as revealed through Muhammad as the Prophet of Allah.
The word Islam means voluntary “Submission” or “Surrender” to the Will of God. It derives from the root word “salam,” meaning peace.
In the Quran, God defines that the only purpose for which He created mankind is to Worship Him. Islam recognizes that humankind has free choice in whether to obey or disobey God, but ultimately we will be held accountable to God in the next life for the choices that we make in this life.
Islam is a natural way of life that encourages one to give due attention to their relationship with God and His creation. Islam teaches that it is through the doing of good deeds and seeking the pleasure of God that souls find true happiness and peace. It is in this context that the word Islam derives from the root word “salam,” or peace
God sent Prophets to teach mankind how to worship Him; starting with Adam, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and the last of the messengers, Muhammad (peace be upon them all). The Islamic position is that all of these prophets came with the same message, that there is no deity worthy of worship except the One True God, known in Arabic as Allah.

A : Hey did you hear that Islam is the world's second-largest religion and world's fastest growing religion.
B: Indeed. There is no god but Allah and Muhammad was his messenger.
A: I don't understand why people say we fuck goats even when our Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) prohibited sex with animals in many narrations:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Cursed is he who goes in unto (has sex with in other words in Arabic) an animal. 1
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Allah cursed who goes unto (has sex) with an animal. 2
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone has sexual intercourse with an animal, kill him and kill it along with him.3
After reading these it becomes clear that having sex with animals is indeed prohibited within Islam. The same viewpoint is also held in the Bible:
If a man has sexual relations with an animal, he is to be put to death, and you must kill the animal. 12
If a woman approaches an animal to have sexual relations with it, kill both the woman and the animal. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads. 13

A religion about peace in which its followers, Muslims, follow the teachings of God and his last prophet Mohammad. One misconception about Islam and Muslims is that it is a religion of violence in which its followers are to kill, enslave, or convert all non-Muslims which is not true. Many quote passages in the Quran such as
Quran (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with God, for which He had sent no authority".
or
Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah disbelief is worse than killing...
but if they desist, then lo! God is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah disbelief and worshipping of others along with God and worship is for God alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)"
Despite these passages one must not take the Quran literally, also the Quran was written at a time when Muslims ha to the defend themselves violently. When it says Unbelievers it means Muslims whom do not adhere to the faith of Islam despite having the title. Same goes for infidels and non-believers.

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.
