Islam is a monotheistic religion founded in the 7th century CE in the Arabian Peninsula. It is based on the belief in one God (Allah) and follows the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, who is considered the last prophet in a long line that includes figures like Abraham, Moses, and Jesus.

The Quran is the holy book of Islam, believed to be the literal word of God as revealed to Muhammad. Central to Islamic belief are the Five Pillars, which are:

1. Shahada: The declaration of faith, affirming that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His messenger.


2. Salah: The performance of ritual prayers five times a day.


3. Zakat: Almsgiving or charity to support the community and help those in need.


4. Sawm: Fasting during the month of Ramadan, a time of spiritual reflection and self-discipline.
