Product Description
If the world's major religions, Islam is the newest. It is younger that Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, and Christianity. The word "Islam" literally means "submission" - to the word and will of the religion's one god, Allah, as revealed to the prophet Muhammad and recorded in the religion's sacred text, the Koran (or Qur'an). Muslims, as the followers of Islam are known, believe that the Koran is the transcript of a tablet preserved in heaven that contains God's word and was revealed to his messenger.
