Why is the Middle East region called the Middle East?

The Middle Eastern region, like every other, is socially constructed based on race, language and religion. The region, which by most accounts spans from Morocco to Iran, is called the Middle East as a reference to its geographic relationship to Europe and East Asia (not western, nor far eastern). The place is lumped into a single region because the majority shares an ethnicity (Arab), religion (Islam) and language (Arabic, though Iran speaks Persian).

Why did Islam become so popular in the middle east?

The reason why "Islam" is so popular in the Middle East is because prophet Mohammed (PBUH) was born in the Middle East in the city of Mecca or Makkah and at the age of 40 came with the religion of Islam. So basically why is Islam so popular in the Middle East its because its started there. Don't get me wrong it started at the beginning of time but then more and more people don't follow Islam so Allah (Arabic word for God) sent down messengers/prophets to follow people on the straight path. Religion in also much more central to political and cultural importance in the Middle East as a region than Europe or even America. As Islam is the dominant religion in that region, its effects are much more pronounced. ________________________________________________________ Islam religion is important to the follower of Islam where ever he is living. Only small percentage of world Muslims are in the Middle East. Muslims in the Middle East are only around 15% of total world Muslim population. So, Islam religion importance is not limited to the Middle East.

What is the primary relgion in the Middle East?

"Primary" can be defined as 'first' or 'most important'. Judaism is the source of all modern monotheistic religions. It continues to be a source of spiritual peace and harmony to all people of all religions (if only everyone would be open to receiving that message). "Primary" can also be defined as 'most populous'. That answer would be Islam. For Christianity, the Middle East (Israel) is the primary source for their religion.
