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
