The Meaning of Islam

Islam means “peace and submission to the will of God” Its basic tenets are: that there is no God but Allah and Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is the final prophet of God; that God create man and the world, and endowed man with a moral sense and free will, and assigned him a vice-regency on earth for which he will be held accounted; and that morally correct behavior is achieved by following God’s Law as revealed through the Angel Gabriel to the Prophet (PBUH).
