How many years ago was Islam started?

Islam is the religion of God. It is based on nature. In Islamic Theology the first man sent to the earth by God was Adam who was a prophet or apostle. He lived his life according to the obligations of Islam.

After that the world population started to grow and people started deviating from the way of Islam. Hence God sent many prophets (once again in Islamic theology about 124 thousand of them) to different nations, at different times . However the people kept changing the teachings of their prophets. In 712 A.D, the last prophet Hazrat Mohammad came to this world, through him God completed the religion which is called Islam in this world.The Quran is the complete and most comprehensive book of all which contains every teaching of Islam in it.

So it can be said that Islam started from the creation of this universe. But it was completed about 1400 years ago.

Jurneys to shrines for the purpose of worship are called pilgrimages. Neither pilgrimages nor shrines are part of true worship as practiced by true saints.

God is worshiped in spirit at all times and in all places.

After the loss of pure Christianity and before the 4th century, apostate Christendom inaugurated the practice of pilgrimages of worship to Bethlehem, the Mount of Olives and such places. Pilgrimages have no place in true Christianity.

pilgramige is when people go on a special jurney to do prayer. Muslims go to makkah for pilgramige and the go round the holy cube. they believe that it is gods house and they go round it 7 times. a few people keep a special key and about once a week they clean it.

Why is the quran the model for poetry?

It has been a source of faith and pride for Muslims over the centuries in that the Holy Qur'an is the preeminent word of the Almighty, inimitable in style and absolute in nature. This conviction is as strong for believers of today as it has been for believers of the past.

One such issue regards the question of pre-Islamic poetry in the Arabian Peninsula. The pagan Arabs of the pre-Islamic period were a proud and boastful people who were characterized by epic tales, heart-rending poetry, and eloquent prose. Indeed, their literary excellence had intoxicated them with glaring arrogance and self-worship. And then, with the revelation of Prophet Muhammad(pbuh), the Arabs had found a contest for their genius - The Holy Qur'an.

Suddenly, their pride had been undermined by something even greater than anything they could have ever dreamed of, a book that had never been matched in beauty, wisdom, and structure, and which has remained unchallenged right to the present day. For the Arabs, the question must have found it's time; can a more powerful book exist other than the one whose pen belongs to the Almighty himself?

Poetry is something which appeals to the emotions and feelings. The Quran, on the other hand is designed to inspire by arousing consciousness, conscience and will. When did poetry create a world movement, a civilization and empires?

Many Orientalists do not understand that Muslims regard the Quran as the Word of God, that it comes through a higher consciousness from an Objective Source, and that is how they interpret the words in the Quran. But even if they do not accept or understand this, it is surely unintelligent, to say the least, to interpret a book by criteria which are not the same as those which the author intended.

The Quran does not teach Muslims to reject all Christians, in fact the Quran in chapter 5 mentioned that the closest to the Muslims in faith are the Christians, because amongst the Christians one will find people who are devoted to learning, who have rejected the world and they are not arrogant.

Unfortunately they are some people who like to pit Muslims against Christians to serve their own agenda...the Quran addresses the Christians with great respect by calling them 'People of the Book'

What is the main idea of the Koran?

The main idea in the Koran (from my personal point of veiw) is that there is an unseen spiritual world that co-exists with the physical world. When we access the unseen world spiritually, our physical senses detect a certain quality and freedom that Allah has provided and we have a profound sense of appreciation and the oneness and unity of life and a realization of who we truly are which will become even more illuminous when we die. The less connected we are to the unseen world, the more materilistic and dissatisfied we become and demand activities that satisfy our physical desires which is the core of all pain and suffering, which again will be more amplified in death. We are able to access this unseen world through fasting, prayer and good deeds like giving money to the poor, protecting our sexuality, supporting orphans, kindness, compassion, and being fair and just in all that we do, and most importantly appreciation.

him in next world. Very important are the words only or except. If this prayer seen in Quran; should have been a contradiction. God says IT is free of contradictions.
