When and where did the religion Islam originate?

Answer 1

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the central prophet of the Islamic faith. Born into a noble Quraish (Quraysh) clan, he was orphaned at an early age. He grew up to be a successful merchant, then turned contemplative. It is said that when he was 40, Muhammad was commanded by Allah (God) to recite the words that would later become Islam's holy book, the Qur'an (or Koran) in the year 610 AD. This was the begining of his prophethood.

As the revelations continued, Muhammad pbuh preached publicly of the duty to submit to the one true God, gaining followers whilst earning the enmity of the polytheistic authorities. To escape persecution, Muhammad was forced to flee in 622 AD to Yathrib (later called Medina). His poetic recitations and pleas for social justice continued to win converts, and Muhammad was repeatedly called into battle in his efforts to unite Arabia behind the faith known as Islam (meaning "submission"). After finally conquering Mecca in 630 AD, Muhammad returned to Medina, where he died in 633 AD.

So, as can be seen, Islam has been practiced as a religion (brought on by prophet Muhammad) for around 1,438 years until now after Prophet Muhammad pbuh was elevated by God as a prophet in the year 610 AD.
