No, Islam is older than the Catholic church. Islam split off from Christianity because they believe Jesus Christ is a prophet, not Lord...or the Trinity.
A Catholic Answer (Catholics in union with the Pope)
The Prophet Muhammed (570 - 632), founder of Islam, was born several centuries after the founding of the Catholic Church, which Catholics believe took place on the first Pentecost (ca 33 A.D.). The region in which the Prophet lived was inhabited by Christians in union with the Pope, Jews, and Arabian polytheists, although there is no evidence that the Prophet himself was ever a Christian in union with the Pope.
