A little something on Islam

La illaha illah allah, Mohammad rasool Allah.
There is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his messanger.

Islam is the truth that God revealed through all His prophets and to every people. For 1 billion muslims, Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. The Arabic word "Islam" simply means submission, and is derived from a word meaning 'peace'.

	O mankind! We created you from a single soul, male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, so that you may come to know one another. Truly the most honored of you in God's sight is the greatest of you in piety. God is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Qur'an, 49:13)
