Islam began in the Arabian Peninsula in the early 7th century, around 610 CE. The religion's founder,
the Prophet Muhammad, was born in the city of Mecca around 570 CE. He experienced a revelation
from the angel Gabriel while meditating in a cave on Mount Hira when he was 40 years old. This event
became known as the Night of Power, and it marked the start of his mission to convey the message of
Islam to the people of Mecca.
Initially, Muhammad's teachings were met with resistance from the polytheistic society of Mecca.
However, as he gained more followers, the leaders of Mecca began to see him as a threat to their
power and wealth. In 622 CE, Muhammad and his followers migrated to the city of Medina, an event
known as the Hijra. This migration marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
In Medina, Muhammad established the first Islamic state and continued to spread his message. Over
the next several years, he fought several battles against Mecca until the city surrendered to him in
630 CE. By the time of Muhammad's death in 632 CE, much of the Arabian Peninsula had converted to
Islam.
After Muhammad's death, his followers continued to spread his teachings throughout the Arabian
Peninsula and beyond. Within a century, Islam had spread across much of the Middle East, North
Africa, and Spain. By the 15th century, the Ottoman Empire had become one of the largest and most
powerful states in the world, with Islam as its state religion.
Today, Islam is the second-largest religion in the world, with over 1.5 billion followers worldwide,
spread across every continent. Its impact on world history, culture, and society is difficult to
overstate.
The fundamentals of Islam are known as the Five Pillars, which are the basic religious obligations that
all Muslims are expected to fulfill:
1. Shahada: It is the declaration of faith and the most important pillar of Islam. It is the testimony that
there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger.
2. Salah: It is the five daily prayers that are obligatory for all Muslims. These prayers are performed at
specific times during the day and involve facing the Kaaba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
3. Zakat: This is the obligatory charity that Muslims are required to pay. It is usually a set percentage
of wealth and assets which is given to the poor and needy in the community.
4. Sawm: Fasting during the month of Ramadan is the fourth pillar of Islam. During this month,
Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, and engaging in sexual activity from dawn until sunset.
5. Hajj: It is the pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia, and it's the fifth pillar. All able-
bodied Muslims are expected to complete this pilgrimage at least once in their lifetime.
These five pillars are considered the foundation of Islamic practice, and they help to unite Muslims
around the world with a common set of religious practices and shared beliefs. In addition to the Five
Pillars, Muslims are also expected to follow other Islamic teachings and principles, such as the tenets
of faith, which include belief in Allah, his prophets, and holy books, as well as the belief in the Day of
Judgment and life after death.
Muslims are also expected to follow the moral guidance of the Quran and Sunnah, including principles
of honesty, charity, and social justice. Other important practices in Islam include the recitation of the
Quran, which is the holy book of Islam, as well as celebrating Islamic festivals, such as Eid al-Fitr and
Eid al-Adha.

SLIDE 4: CONCEPT OF GOD IN ISLAM (TAHWEED, THE ONENESS OF GOD, AND ISLAMIC BELIEFS
ABOUT GOD
In Islam, the concept of God is based on the belief in one, unique, and indivisible God, who is the sole
creator of the universe and everything in it. Muslims believe that God, or Allah in Arabic, is the
supreme being and the ultimate source of all existence.
1. Tawheed - The oneness of God, which is the most fundamental belief in Islam. Muslims believe that
there is no God but Allah and that He is the only deity worthy of worship.
2. Allah's attributes - Muslims believe in a number of attributes for Allah, including His mercy, justice,
wisdom, and power, all of which are mentioned in the Quran.
3. Omnipotence - Muslims believe that God is all-powerful and capable of doing anything that He
wills, and that nothing happens unless God permits it to happen.
4. Providence - Muslims believe that God is the ultimate source of everything, and that every aspect
of existence is subject to God's control and oversight.
5. Transcendence - Muslims believe that God is beyond human comprehension and that His existence
cannot be fully understood by the human mind.
6. Compassion and Forgiveness - Muslims believe that God is compassionate and forgiving, and that
He is always ready to forgive those who genuinely repent for their mistakes.
7. Judgment - Muslims believe in the Day of Judgment, when every person will be held accountable
for their actions in this life and will be rewarded or punished accordingly.
In Islam, the concept of God is central to the religion and to the daily lives of Muslims. Muslims are
keen on fulfilling their obligations to God and every aspect of their life encapsulates the Islamic belief
in one God who is merciful and just.
