Muslims are monotheists — they believe in a single, almighty God, whom they call Allah. They also believe that Muhammad, born in Mecca in 570 CE, was the last true prophet sent to preach the message of Allah. Transcribed word for word in Allah's own language, these messages make up the
Qur'an, the most well known of the Muslim's sacred texts. This holy book is strictly observed by most Muslims and is handed down from one generation to the next to preserve the integrity of the religion.
Extremely devout and sincere, Muslims engage in ritualistic prayer five times per day to prove the passion of their commitment and surrender to Allah.
