text: there are so many. This most important of which is the belief in one God, who has no partners,children, and parents. \nThe second is that Muhammed (peace be upon him) is the last and final prophet of God.\nThe Quraan- our holy book- is the word of God, revealed to the prophet Muhammed (pbuh). The Quraan has been unchanged from the time of revelation and every day 10000s of muslims memorize it regardless of their age or level of faith.\nIn Islam we believe that Jesus (peace be upon him), Moses, Jacob, Aaron, John, and many other prophets that the christians and jews believe in were all prophets of God.\nThe belief in the last day, heaven and hell, ressurection are all central to the Islamic faith.\n\nThere are five pillars in Islam:\nTo believe that there is non worthy of worship but Allah and that Muhammed is the messenger of God.\nTo pray five times a day.\nto give charity (2.4%  every year of ones wealth every year)\nto peform hajj- pilgrimage- once in a life time for those who can afford to.\n\nwell thats just some of it.\n Alcohol is forbidden in the Islamic faith\nso is the eating of pork.\n\nAnd being a women in Islam is very liberating!!!!!!\nfor 1 a man recieves a bit more inheritance than we do but the fact is with his money he has to oversee all the muslim women who have nothing, his responsibility is the old lady next door, and the bag lady on the street.\na woman can use her money to buy jimmy choo boots no problem there.\nsome of you are as good as racist and your ignorance pertaining to other faiths continue to amaze me. \nIslam does not teach us to kill as the media and some muslims have lead you to believe.\nInfact it is tottally forbidden except for in the an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth case, and in war women,children, the old, the sick, those praying and the innocent cannot be harmed.\nsuicide is forbidden.\ndonot let the ignorant lead you to believe otherwise.
