Islam

Islam is a monotheistic faith that believes in the worship of Allah (God), revealed through the prophet Muhammad, who is considered the last and final prophet. The central text of Islam is the Qur'an, believed to be the literal word of God as revealed to Muhammad. Followers of Islam, known as Muslims, practice the Five Pillars of Islam, which include belief in one God, prayer, fasting, charity, and pilgrimage to Mecca. Islam teaches that salvation is attained through submission to the will of Allah, and it encompasses both a personal faith and a system of law known as Sharia.

​

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.  Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

-Matthew 28:18-20
