Their efforts were unabated, and the remarkable job they did is unparalleled in the experience of any other religion or civilization.

At the time of the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ):

One of the main reasons behind this is the fact that the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) clearly taught the Companions may Allaah be pleased with them the importance of his Sunnah, its place in Islam and their role in saving it, teaching and conveying it to others around them and to those who would come after them. In so doing, he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) followed an effective methodology, which will be briefly outlined below:

    According to Malcolm Clark, “Muslims today who want to establish a Muslim state often look to the first Islamic states for models to emulate and for inspiration” (Clark 15). Therefore, to develop an understanding of the Muslim culture, we must review the birth and expansion of Islam. Islam began when the angel Gabriel appeared before Muhammad, telling him that God had declared him as “His last prophet” (Clark 9). This happened in 610 A.D. in Mecca, presently known as Saudi Arabia. Over the course of twenty years, Muhammad spread word of God’s messages, which later became the Qur’an.…

On one of these occasions the archangel Gabriel appeared to him. This was one of the first revelations that became the basis of the Qur'an, the holy book of Islam.

    Islam's development has resulted from major political, economic, and military effect both inside and outside the Islamic world. Muhammad's death in 632 caused disagreements over who would follow him as leader of the Muslim world, thus many different leaders arose. The Umayyad aristocracy viewed Islam as a religion for Arabs only. Islam spread quickly during 750-1258 the era that they call The Golden Age. Muslims believe that Allah revealed the Qur'an to Muhammad who was thought to be God's final prophet, and regard the Qur'an and the Sunnah, the words of Muhammad, as the basis of Islam. Islamic tradition says that Judaism and Christianity have distorted the messages of these prophets throughout time either in interpretation. Allah (God) is one and indivisible. They believe in monotheism. "Allah" means God in Arabic God is the one True Creator. The Muslims, like Christians, believe God has always existed and there was no one before him and he will exist forever; he has hold over life and death. (Chapter 112 in Al Quran) The principle scriptures of Islam are the Quran and the Hadith. The Quran is the main book of Islam telling of Allah's revelations to humanity, told through his…
