From day one of human existence, religion has provided one of the most persistent explanations for that existence, often centered around the concept of an all-powerful Creator; it encourages us to reflect on profound questions about the origins of the universe and our interactions within it. And if science can and will explore the process and mechanics of our existence and the world around us, religion explores the purpose of that existence.
Exploring the possibility of a truth that religion may offer can profoundly impact your present and future life, making it a high-priority topic worth investigating. Being born into a wrong belief system or environment doesn’t invalidate the crucial role of spiritual life or the validity of a search for an authentic religion; objectivity and sincerity are all tools you will need on this journey.
Let’s embark on this quest together! We’re excited to share insights, spark discussions, and uncover the wonders of Islam for you.
What exactly is Islam?
“I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him – the wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity.”
- George Bernard Shaw

BECOMING MUSLIM
One God, one message.
A believer submits to God’s will and, therefore, lives according to His Divine revelation. That state of faith is called Islam, which is not a proper name but a state of being.
PRAYER
Prayer is a direct connection between the believer and the Creator that achieves the worship of Allah alone, which Muslims consider the purpose of life.
CHARITY
Zakat is a mandatory system of almsgiving in Islam. It is a religious obligation for every adult Muslim who meets the necessary criteria of wealth.
QURAN
The Quran is Islam’s holy scripture and is God’s literal verbatim. It is a duty upon every Muslim to read the Quran and pound upon it consistently
PILGRIMAGE
The pilgrimage is the fifth pillar of Islam. It is the only form of worship that combines all the components of any worship: spiritual, physical, and financial. It is also time—and place-specific.

The Messenger of Allah(Pbuh), said:
inhabitants of the heavens and earth, even the fish in the depths of
the water, seek forgiveness for the scholar. The virtue of the scholar
over the worshiper is like the superiority of the moon over the stars.
The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets. They do not leave
behind gold or silver coins, but rather they leave behind knowledge.
Whoever has taken hold of it has been given an abundant share.”
Rooted in the principles of monotheism and submission to the will of God, Islam represents a collective journey towards harmony, a path where individuals unite in faith and practice to achieve a greater sense of peace and balance. This journey is about personal enlightenment and fostering harmony within communities and societies, promoting compassion, justice, and equality among all people.
Through objective sources of morality and practices like prayer, charity, fasting, and an authentic source of revelation, Muslims strive to create a harmonious society where compassion, justice, and respect for all are paramount.
Contrary to what the media has been spreading for decades, the teachings of Islam emphasize the importance of tolerance, empathy, and mutual respect while maintaining justice, and offer a path towards a harmonious existence both within oneself and to others, embodying the spirit of the collective journey towards peace and unity.
