Muslims dey believe say Islam be de complete den universal version of a primordial faith wey na ebe revealed chaw times thru earlier prophets den messengers, wey dey include Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, den Jesus. Muslims dey consider de Quran e be de verbatim word of God den de unaltered, final revelation. Alongsyd de Quran, Muslims sanso dey believe insyd previous revelations, such as de Tawrat (de Torah), de Zabur (Psalms), den de Injil (Gospel). Dem dey believe say Muhammad be de main den final of God ein prophets, thru whom na dem plete de religion. De teachings den normative examples of Muhammad, dem call de Sunnah, wey dem document insyd accounts dem call de hadith, provide a constitutional model give Muslims. Islam dey base for de belief insyd de oneness den uniqueness of God (tawhid), den belief insyd an afterlife (akhirah) plus de Last Judgment—wherein dem go reward de righteous insyd paradise (jannah) den de unrighteous go be punished insyd hell (jahannam).

Islamic law, sharia, dey touch on virtually every aspect of life, from banking den finance den welfare to men den women dema roles den de environment. De two main religious festivals be Eid al-Fitr den Eid al-Adha. De three holiest sites insyd Islam be Masjid al-Haram insyd Mecca, Prophet's Mosque insyd Medina, den al-Aqsa Mosque insyd Jerusalem.
Etymology
Insyd Arabic, Islam (Arabic: إسلام, lit. 'submission [to God]')[3][4][5] be de verbal noun of Form IV wey dey originate from de verb سلم (salama), from de triliteral root س-ل-م (S-L-M), wich dey form a large class of words wey mostly dey relate to concepts of submission, safeness, den peace.[6] Insyd a religious context, e dey refer to de total surrender to de will of God.[7] A Muslim (مُسْلِم), de word give a follower of Islam,[8] be de active participle of de same verb form, wey dey mean "submitter (to God)" anaa "one wey dey surrender (to God)".
Na Islam einself be historically called Mohammedanism insyd de English-speaking world. Na dis term fall out of use wey na sometimes dem say e be offensive, as e dey suggest say a human being, rather dan God, be central to Muslims dema religion.[9]
Articles of faith
De Islamic creed (aqidah) dey require belief insyd six articles: God, angels, revelation, prophets, de Day of Resurrection, den de divine predestination.[10]
God

De central concept of Islam be tawḥīd (Arabic: توحيد), de oneness of God. Dem usually think am of as a precise monotheism, buh e sanso be panentheistic insyd Islamic mystical teachings.[11] Dem dey see God as incomparable den widout multiplicity of persons such as insyd de Christian Trinity, den dey associate multiplicity to God anaa dey attribute God ein attributes to odas as dem dey see am as idolatory, dem call shirk. Thus, Muslims no be iconodules wey dem no dey attribute forms to God. Dem instead dey describe den dey refer God to by chaw names anaa attributes, de most common be Ar-Rahmān (الرحمان) wey dey mean "De Entirely Merciful", den Ar-Rahīm (الرحيم) wey mean "De Especially Merciful" wich dem dey invoke for de beginning of chaw chapters of de Quran.[12]
Islam dey teach dat na de creation of everything insyd de universe be brought into being by God ein command as expressed by de wording, "Be, and it is,"[3] den dat de purpose of existence be make dem worship God.[13] Dem dey view am as a personal god wey der be no intermediaries, such as clergy, make dem contact God. Dem dey refer to consciousness den awareness of God as Taqwa. Allāh be a term plus no plural anaa gender being dem ascribe to am wey e sanso be used by Muslims den Arabic-speaking Christians den Jews in reference to God, whereas ʾilāh (إله) be a term dem use for a deity anaa a god for general.[14]

De chronologically earlier chapters, dem reveal for Mecca, be concerned primarily plus spiritual topics, while de later Medinan chapters dey discuss more social den legal issues relevant to de Muslim community.[3][18] Muslim jurists dey consult de hadith ('accounts'), anaa de written record of Muhammad ein life, to both supplement de Quran den assist plus ein interpretation. De science of Quranic commentary den exegesis be known as tafsir.[19] For addition to ein religious significance, de Quran be widely regarded as de finest work insyd Arabic literature,[20][21] wey na e influence art den de Arabic language.[22]
Islam sanso dey hold say na God send revelations, dem call wahy, to different prophets chaw times thru out history. However, Islam dey teach say na parts of de previously revealed scriptures, such as de Tawrat (Torah) den de Injil (Gospel), cam be distorted—either insyd interpretation, insyd text, anaa both, while de Quran (lit.

Non-denominational Muslims be an umbrella term wey na e be used for den by Muslims wey no dey belong to anaa no dey self-identify plus a specific Islamic denomination.[102][103]
Mysticism


Sufism (Arabic: تصوف, tasawwuf), be a mystical-ascetic approach to Islam wey dey seek to find a direct personal experience of God. Classical Sufi scholars define tasawwuf as "a science wey ein objective be de reparation of de heart den dey turn am away from all else buh God", thru "intuitive den emotional faculties" wey one for be trained to use. Na Ahmad ibn Ajiba define tasawwuf as "a return to de tradition, wey ein beginning be knowledge, ein middle be action [upon dat knowledge], wey ein end be a gift [from Allah]."[104] E no be a sect of Islam, wey ein adherents dey belong to de various Muslim denominations. Isma'ilism, wey ein teachings be rooted insyd Gnosticism den Neoplatonism[105] as well as by de Illuminationist den Isfahan schools of Islamic philosophy, na dem develop mystical interpretations of Islam.[106] Hasan al-Basri, de early Sufi ascetic dem often portray as one of de earliest Sufis,[107] emphasize fear of failing God ein expectations of obedience. For contrast, later prominent Sufis, such as Mansur Al-Hallaj den Jalaluddin Rumi, emphasize religiosity based for love towards God. Such devotion sanso get an impact for de arts, plus Rumi still be one of de bestselling poets insyd America.[108][109]
Sufis dey see tasawwuf as an inseparable part of Islam. Traditional Sufis, such as Bayazid Bastami, Jalaluddin Rumi, Haji Bektash Veli, Junaid Baghdadi, den Al-Ghazali, argue give Sufism as e be based upon de tenets of Islam den de teachings of de prophet.[110] Historian Nile Green argue dat na Islam insyd de medieval period be more anaa less Sufism. Followers of de Sunni revivalist movement dem know as Salafism view popular devotional practices, such as de veneration of Sufi saints, as innovations from de original religion. Na Salafists sam times physically attack Sufis, wey dey lead to a deterioration insyd Sufi–Salafi relations.[111]

Law den jurisprudence

Shariah be de body of Islamic religious law.[121] De desire make dem delineate den discover laws insyd a comprehensive den consistent method lead to de development of de theory of law, dem call fiqh.[122] Conversely, dem dey use bid'ah refer to unlawful innovations insyd matters of religion.[123] Na differing methodologies, dem call principles of fiqh anaa Usul al-fiqh, develop den a school of jurisprudence wey dey arise around a methodology dem know as a madhhab (Arabic: مذهب). De conformity insyd following of decisions by a religious expert anaa school be called taqlid. De term ghair muqallid dey refer to those wey no dey use taqlid den, by extension, no get a madhab.[124] Dem dey call de practice of an individual wey dey interprete law plus independent reasoning ijtihad.[125] Dem know those wey dey interpret shariah as muftis wey dema legal opinions be called fatwas.
De primary sources of Shariah be de Quran den Sunnah.[126] A common third source be qiyas (analogical reasoning) wich dem dey use for legal questions wey dem no deal plus literally insyd de Qur’ān anaa Sunnah. Dem go search parallels make dem find de ‘’illah’’, anaa effective cause, wich be de reason behind de existing ruling.[127] For example, from de specific prohibition of wine be deduced a broad prohibition on alcohol as dem share de operative cause dem identify as de mind-altering nature of all alcoholic drinks.[128][129] De Zahiri school dey adhere to strict literalism den thus dey reject qiyas. Consensus of opinion be ijma, while ikhtilaf dey refer to scholarly disagreement. Rulings assign actions to one of five categories dem call ahkam: mandatory (fard), recommended (mustahabb), permitted (mubah), abhorred (makruh), den prohibited (haram).[125][122]
