What is Islam

Islam:-
       Islam demands conformance to countless rules for living. Most Muslims live their lives in fear that Allah will send them to hell for eternity for not following the rules well enough.

Islam teaches Muslims they are superior to non-Muslims intellectually, spiritually and physically, and that Allah has given them the authority and ability to judge others. Unfortunately for them, Muslims judge other Muslims as well as all non-Muslims; Sunnis and Shiites have been slaughtering one another since AD 656.

        Where there is Islam there is conflict, chaos and death. A core belief of Islam is that oly Muslim men killed or wounded while fighting to spread Islam are guaranteed immediate entry into Islamic Paradise. Others must wait until Judgment Day for Allah to weigh their good and bad deeds toward other Muslims. Thus, many Muslims choose to fight. It may interest some that Allah, in deciding whether to send a Muslim to Paradise or Hell, does not consider how Muslims treated infidels. Allah’s concern is that Muslims fight to spread Islam.

        All Muslims are expected to abide by the five pillars of Islam.

1. Profess the faith.

2. Recite “prayers” 

3. Fast during Ramadan

4. Give alms

5. Make a pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

      To maintain the integrity of the umma, Muslims are prohibited from assimilating into non-Muslim societies. (Umma means the world community of Muslims bound together by their Islamic beliefs.) 

      Islam is a way of life. Muslims are told what to eat and drink, whom they may associate with, how they must recite Arabic phrases and perform Islamic rituals, how to enter a residence and how to sit on a toilet. Islam teaches that Allah keeps a record of every person’s words and deeds, and that their best chance of enjoying sensual pleasures in paradise for all eternity is to correctly perform Islamic rituals and obey Islamic rules. 

      Muslims must recite passages in Arabic. They refer to their five-a-day recitations as “prayers” even though more than 80 percent of all Muslims do not understand Arabic. Some know the meaning of their recitations, but most just perform the rituals by rote. The English translation of the most frequent recitation is, “In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Master of the Day of Judgment. Thee (alone) we worship and Thee (alone) we ask for help. Show us the straight path. The path of those whom Thou hast favored [Muslims*]; Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger [Jews] nor of those who go astray [Christians] (Qur’an 1:1-7).” A frequent addition to this prayer is, “Say: He is Allah, the One! Allah is He on Whom all depend. He begetteth not, nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him” (Qur’an 112:1-4).”
