What is Islam?

Islam is the faith of worshipping the One God, Allah, and following His guidance as revealed through His prophets, including Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad (peace be upon them all). Muslims believe that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the final messenger of God.

The word "Islam" means submission to God and attaining peace through that submission.
