Question:

Hi. I’m a non-Muslim wishing to know more about Islam, and how to properly read the Quran, and some terminology on Muslim culture. Thanks, and I hope I will be able to learn.

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Islam is a complete way of life revealed by Almighty Allah (God) for the success of Humanity in this life and the eternal life after death.

Islam teaches the Oneness of God. The Proper name of God is Allah. Allah is alone and has no partners. He has no wife and children. He is the Creator of everything. He alone controls everything. Nothing can occur except with the Will of Almighty Allah.

Allah sent Messengers to teach mankind the correct method of living life i.e. Islam. The final Messenger was Muhammad (Peace be Upon him). He practically demonstrated to mankind the way of Islam.

Hence, anyone who follows Messenger Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) will be given complete success by Almighty Allah in this life and also in the everlasting life after death.
