Muslim
Muslims believe
that God is eternal, transcendent, absolutely one (the doctrine of tawhid, or
strict or simple monotheism), and incomparable; that he is self-sustaining, who
begets not nor was begotten. Muslim beliefs regarding God can be summed up in chapter 112 of the Qur'an,
al-Ikhlas,
referred to as "the chapter of purity". Muslims also believe that
Islam is the complete and universal version of a primordial faith that was
revealed at many times and places before, including through the prophets
Abraham, Moses and Jesus.
Muslims maintain that previous messages and revelations have been partially changed or corrupted
over time, but consider the Qur'an to be both unaltered and the final
revelation from God—Final Testament.
Most Muslims
accept as a Muslim anyone who has publicly pronounced the Shahadah
(declaration of faith) which states, "I testify that there is no god
except for the God [Allah], and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of the God."
Their basic religious practices are enumerated in the Five Pillars of Islam, which consist of
daily prayers (salat),
fasting during Ramadan
(sawm),
almsgiving (zakat),
and the pilgrimage to Mecca
(hajj) at least
once in a lifetime.
Currently, the
most up-to-date reports from an American think tank and PBS have estimated 1.2 to 1.57 billion
Muslims populate the world, or about 20% of an estimated 2009 world population
of 6.8 billion.
In
Islamic
theology, God (Arabic: Allah)
is the all-powerful
and all-knowing
creator, sustainer, ordainer, and judge of the universe. Islam puts a heavy
emphasis on the conceptualization of God as strictly singular (tawhid). God
is unique (wahid) and inherently One (ahad), all-merciful and
omnipotent. According to the Islamic teachings, God exists without a place. According
to the Qur'an, "No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision.
God is above all comprehension, yet is acquainted with all things" (Qur'an
6:103)
According to Islam there are
99 Names of
God (
al-asma al-husna lit. meaning: "The best
names") each of which evoke a distinct attribute of God. All these names
refer to Allah, the supreme and all-comprehensive divine name. Among the 99
names of God, the most famous and most frequent of these names are "the
Compassionate" (
al-rahman) and "the Merciful" (
al-rahim).
Creation and ordering of the universe is seen as an act of prime mercy for
which all creatures sing God's glories and bear witness to God's unity and
lordship. God responds to those in need or distress whenever they call. Above
all, God guides humanity to the right way, “the holy ways.”
Islam teaches that God, as referenced in the
Qur'an,
is the only God and the same God worshipped by members of other
Abrahamic religions such as
Christianity
and
Judaism.
(
29:46).
Three centuries after the death of the
Islamic
prophet Muhammad, the
Arab Caliphates extended from the Atlantic
Ocean in the west to Central Asia in the east. The subsequent empires of the
Umayyads,
Abbasids,
Fatimids,
Ghaznavids,
Seljuqs,
Safavids,
Mughals,
and
Ottomans
were among the influential and distinguished powers in the world. The
Islamic civilization gave rise to many centers
of culture and science and produced notable scientists, astronomers,
mathematicians, doctors, nurses and
philosophers during the
Golden Age of Islam. Technology flourished;
there was investment in economic infrastructure, such as irrigation systems and
canals; and the importance of reading the Qur'an produced a comparatively high
level of literacy in the general populace.
In the later Middle Ages, destructive
Mongol
invasions from the East, and the loss of population in the
Black Death,
greatly weakened the traditional centre of the Islamic world, stretching from
Persia to Egypt, and the
Ottoman Empire was able to conquer most
Arabic-speaking areas, creating an Islamic
world power
again, although one that was unable to master the challenges of the
Early Modern
period.
Later, in
modern history (18th and 19th centuries), many
Islamic regions fell under the influence of European
Great powers.
After the
First World War, Ottoman territories (a
Central
Powers member) were
partitioned into several nations
under the terms of the
Treaty of Sèvres.
Modern interpretations of Islamic texts advocate the
unification of religion and state ruled by
a
Caliph.
Such a polity has not existed since the early Islamic city-states and universal
imperial period beginnings. The common slogan
al-islam dinun was dawlatun`
(translation: Islam is a religion and a state) is neither a Koranic verse nor a
quote from the
hadith,
but a 19th century political
Salafi slogan popularized in opposition to Western Egyptian
influence. Such a recent origin was a handicap for a belief system bound by the
scripture revealed, and the ways of those who lived, twelve centuries earlier.
Although affected by ideologies such as
communism
during much of the 20th century, the
Islamic
identity and the dominance of
Islam on political issues intensified
during the
early 21st century. Global interests in
Islamic regions, international conflicts and
globalization
changed the influence of Islam on the 21st century.
