Islam - What Is Islam ?

This day I have perfected for you your religion, and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5/3) Islam means peace. Islam is defined as submitting to Allah the one who has no partners nor equals and following the path He (s.w.t) showed us and not our desires. It means to turn towards Allah with devotion and unconditionally accept His (s.w.t) commands and prohibitions. The one who adopts Islam as their religion and complies with its rules are called “Muslim”.
