“What is Islam?”

Islam is the religion of Allah's Prophets: Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and all the others in between; it is the worship of One God, without idols or intercessory saints. Islam consists essentially of five pillars: testimony of faith, performance of five daily prayers, fasting the holy month of Ramadhan, payment of charity to the poor, and performance of the pilgrimage to the holy city of Makkah once in a lifetime.

A person becomes a Muslim by testifying wholeheartedly that “there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is the Slave and Messenger of Allah.” This testimony marks the first pillar of Islam. It can be declared alone, but is often performed in congregation, such that the person making the decision to embrace the faith feels that he/she is joining a worldwide community of believers, a feeling reinforced by observing the Islamic congregational prayers and gatherings, the greatest of which is the pilgrimage to Makkah, which draws an annual gathering of around three million.

Islam is a complete way of life. Muslims strive to follow live that way of life by emulating the example of the Prophet Muhammad in integrity, moral reasoning, and devout worship. In the context of religious laws and credence, the Sunnah is a body of preserved, authoritative statements of the Prophet Muhammad.

The Qur’an and Sunnah are central to Islam. Muslims are encouraged to read the Qur’an daily, to believe in it factually, to memorize it verbatim, to comprehend it with depth of mind and reflection, and to implement its lessons and verdicts devoutly. They look to the Prophet Muhammad as a model human being, and as an enduring religious authority. His words are vital to proper interpretation and implementation of the Qur’an. This centrality is demonstrated by the historical endeavors to preserve and grade the authenticity of his statements.
