It is the second largest and fastest growing religion in the world , [7] [8] with approximately 2 billion followers [9] [10] and about 24.4% [11] [12] of the total population , known as Muslims . [13] [14] Muslims are the majority population in more than 50 countries . [7] Islam teaches that Allah is kind, merciful, one and only, and the only God worthy of worship. [15]
He has sent many prophets , heavenly books and signs throughout the ages to guide mankind . [16] The main scripture in Islam is the Holy Qur'an , which is the word of God himself ; And the last and final Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) (29 August 570 – 8 June 632) said, did and kept silent as Sunnah which was recorded as Hadith . However, all Sunnahs are Hadiths , but not all Hadiths are Sunnahs .

According to Islamic scriptures , it is the only complete way of life acceptable to Allah . Islam is universal religion. Islam is not only for Makkah - Madinah or Arab countries, but Islam is sent to all people of all races , tribes , nations and rich and poor, white and black and Arab and non-Arab people of the world .
According to Islamic belief , the Qur'an in the original Arabic language is the last, complete, unaltered and final version of the heavenly books that were revealed to all the prophets, including Adam , Abraham , Moses , and Jesus . [17] [18] [19] [20] On the day of the Farewell Hajj in 632 AD, this system of life was recognized as complete by the Creator himself.
Like other Abrahamic religions, Islam teaches a final judgment where the righteous will be rewarded with Paradise and the sinners will be punished with Hell . [21] [22] One of the religious practices is the Five Pillars of Islam , which is an obligatory duty for every Muslim . They have to abide by Islamic law or Shariah , which actually governs all spheres and activities of society and life. From banking to charity , from women to environment , it all belongs to it. [23][24] [25] Mecca , Medina and Jerusalem are the three most respected and holy cities in Islam . [26]
According to Islamic belief, Islam is not only a new religion , but the origin of Islam from the beginning of creation . Adam was the first human in this world and the first prophet of Islam among mankind . And the last and final prophet is Muhammad , who appeared for the entire creation from the Creator. [27] [28] [29]
Historically, its origins can be traced back to the early 7th century after the Prophet Muhammad's prophethood in Mecca. [30] By the 8th century, the Umayyad Caliphate extended over a vast territory from Iberia (Spain) in the west to the Indus River in the east. The 8th to 13th centuries are traditionally called the Islamic Golden Age .
Historically, during the Abbasid Caliphate , the Muslim world was at the peak of scientific , economic and cultural development. [31] [32] [33] Islam spread mainly through proselytism and conquest . Conquests occurred by separate empires , such as the Ottoman Empire , and conversions occurred with Islamic missionary activities [34] and under the influence of new conquests.
Muslims belong to two main sects , Sunni (80-90%) or Shia (10-20%). [35] Basically all non- Shia are counted as Sunni (Muslim) . Sunni Islam is basically a combination of many Islamic ideologies. Also, some Muslims do not classify themselves as Shia Sunnis, they do not believe in the division of Islam. They take the Qur'an and Hadith as their source in light of these ( Ijma and Qiyas) .) practices Islam and tries to make himself a pure Muslim. However, they believe that Ijma and Qiyas are not acceptable on the clear guidance of Quran and Hadith. And they think that all Muslims should unite and consider their religion as Islam and identify themselves as Muslims .
Indonesia is the largest Muslim majority country , with 13% of the world's Muslims living here. [36] 31% of the world's Muslims live in South Asia , [37] where the majority of the Muslim population resides. [38] 20% live in the Middle East - North Africa region [39] and is one of the main religions in the region. [40] 15% live in sub-Saharan Africa . [41] There are also significant Muslim communities in the Americas , the Caucasus , Central Asia , and China , Europe , Indochina , Philippines , Australia and Russia . [8] [42]
