Why does the hijra mark the beginning of the Islamic calendar?
First and foremost for a Muslim anything that has been commanded by Allah and the Prophet Muhammed(SAW) is to be followed and obeyed thus we Muslims being commanded to do so hear and obey. Secondly it provides a separate and unique identity for the Muslim so that even though he would live amidst Non-Muslims but can scycologically isolate himself from activities that are non Islamic. Thirdly it reminds Muslims of their origins as this calender starts from the time when the Holy Prophet Muhammed(SAW) migrated along with his followers to Madinah from Mecca and established the first Islamic government in Madinah. Fourthly the Hijri Calender is lunar and not solar and thus Muslims can enjoy many activities such as fasting and Eid in different seasons of the year and not remain stagnant in the summer or winter.

Why is memorizing Qur'an so important?
Quran is God revelation to prophet Muhammad through the Angel Gabriel. The Quran is the real God words (without a single letter alterations) with the same Arabic language that is still a live language. That is why Quran is different than other holy books. The texts of other holy books are not real God words but translations of the meanings of God words with alterations and additions made effective by many human contributors.
That is why memorizing Quran means memorizing God words.
In addition, Quran includes all morals and guides for a Muslim to lead a good life that meets God commands and in the same help a Muslim to maintain good characters and to do good deeds for his society.
Memorizing Quran also is an important factor that ensured having Quran without a single letter change since start of Quran revelation until the moment and will remain without single letter change, by god will, until the Day of Judgment.
Refer to the Quran related questions below for more information.
What is a common ancestor of Judaism Christianity and Islam?
Judaism is undoubtedly the ancestor of both Christianity and Islam, although many Muslims consider the Islamic religion to be older than Judaism.
Judaism, in turn, evolved from the polytheistic religion of the early Hebrews, as evidenced by many religious artefacts found by archaeologists throughout ancients Israel and Judah. Zoroastrianism is not an ancestor of Judaism, but it does seem to have influenced Judaism, as well as directly influencing both Christian and Islamic beliefs.
Why are Muslim Jewish and Christian religions fighting?
Islam doesn't fight anyone. In fact a Muslim is no Muslim unless he believes in Moses and Jesus as prophets sent by Allah to guide people to the right path just as Muhammad (PBUH) is. Islam teaches people how to be tolerant with all other people of all faiths unless they-other people-started war.
Opinions- Muhammad,(founder of Islam) who lived in the seventh century C.E., claimed to be an Ishmaelite descendant of Abraham. Ishmael was the firstborn son of Abraham,from earliest times the first born son held an honored position in the family and was the one who succeeded to the headship of the household. He inherited a double portion of the fathers property. Since the firstborn sons among the Israelites were those in line to become the heads of the various households, they represented the entire nation. Ishmael, as Abraham's oldest son, was prospective heir for about 14 years. (Ge 16:16; 17:18-21; 21:5) But at Sarah's request and with God's approval, Abraham dismissed Ishmael, then about 19 years of age. Isaac then possessed the first born's right and later received everything that Abraham had.(Ge 21:8-13) 25:5,?6). Muslims, as descendants of Ishmael, believe they are God's chosen people, and Christendom believe they are by virtue of Issac, Jesus came through the line of descent from Abraham Issac and so on,but the Muslims feel strongly that their inheritance was stolen.
- There is also too much of a generalization in the question. The religions themselves are not fighting. The dispute is between the inhabitants of a certain region of the Middle East. The factions just happen to be uniform in their religious affiliations because a dispute over land allocation was handled badly. srael is a modern nation. After the Second World War, the Jews wanted a homeland. Unfortunately this meant some one else was going to have to give up some real estate. It eventually wound up being the Palestinians. Regardless of ones faith it is difficult to be told one day that you are just going to have to give up your home so some one else can live there. Israel/ the Middle East is the home and birth place of all three of these faiths so many of their holy sites share common ground. There is a constant tension over ownership and always has been.If you are talking about the war on terror that is another issue all together with quite complex socio political causes and implications that have very little to do with religion even if Islam is used as a banner by evil doers.
- Near as I can tell, each group believes that God is Love and are willing to kill one another to prove it.
- The religious war taking place in Palestine boils down to a clash of civilizations; Secrets lay beneath.

They fight just for political reasons and they take religion just as excuse. Otherwise, could you explain the reasons behind WW1 and WW2 that both opposite rivals are mainly Christians.
All God religions call for tolerance and mutual respect and never call for fighting unless to defend their homes, territory, and free will.
yes the would cause the Muslim way is if you marry a Muslim man and your not you have 2 convert but sence your not your children need to be

You cannot marry a Muslim unless you revert to Islam. If you do get married it is not accepted in Islam and you will be living in sin. Muslim man can marry people of the book, that is Jews and Christian, but they have to believe in Prophet Mohammed as the Last Prophet of God and also that Jesus is not God or Son of God.

How did the death of Suleiman I lead to the decline of Islamic States?
Firstly, the question should be narrowed. While the Ottoman Empire declined after the death of Suleiman I, the Safavid Empire in Persia was only beginning to rise and the Mughal Empire in India had not even begun to form.
As for the reason for the Ottoman Empire's decline, Suleiman I was the last Ottoman Emperor to care more about the state than the harem where he could indulge in pleasures of the flesh.
Which country are mostly Muslims?
The largest percentage of the world's Muslim community lives in Indonesia, roughly 260 million Muslims. However, with a worldwide population of 1.6 billion, this is still a far cry from most (>50%) Muslims.
Answer 1
By the original definition of barbarism, they don't speak Greek. However, in a modern sense some may consider them barbaric because some Muslims live nomadic lives and possibly because of the strict system of Islam itself.
Answer 2
this is a disgusting stereotype Muslims are not barbaric
Answer 3
Muslims as an entire group are not barbaric. Most Muslims live relatively uneventful lives in cities or the countryside and are not violent to one another. However, there are a number of serious cultural and economic problems in many Islamic countries. Different parts of the Islamic community believe that they have different viable solutions to this problem. Some want to adopt a more liberal democracy like Western countries because they believe that Western countries do not have these general types of problems. Others wish to return to a more religious type of system because the Islamic Empires of the 1400s and 1500s were among the most powerful countries in the world and ostensibly ruled with Islamic Law. Since they wish to return the past to the present, many forms of punishment that they advocate are barbaric by modern standards, such as the hacking off of limbs, punishments for crimes of blasphemy and homosexuality, and police to regulate the dress patterns of people. The majority wish to find a more moderate path, mixing some of the traditions of the past with modern systems of governance.

What are the two major divisions of the Muslim Community?
That would probably be Shiites and Sunnis. Both pray to Allah(swt) and follow the prophet Muhammad (pbuh). The difference is that Sunnis believe the first four caliphs were the rightful successors of the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) as they were his closest companions during his rule. Shiites insist that true leaders of Islam must be descendants of Ali, the fourth caliph and Muhammed's son in-law. By the way, Sunnis account for about 85 percent of the world's Muslims while the Shiite Muslims Account for about 15 percent of the world's Muslims.
