What is Islam?

What is Islam?

Recent world events have raised a general curiosity about Islam and its teachings. Tons of questions have been raised about Islam: What is Jihad?, is it a struggle to achieve peace or is it related to terrorism?, what about women? Second class citizens or equal to a man? Four wives?,
What is the Quran all about? Who is this Allah that Muslims worship? Etc. etc.

Though information about Islam is readily available online, not every website is teaching authentic information and not every scholar appearing in the media is reliable, thus the need for an app about Islam that supplies detailed info is authentic and is easy to use.

Brief Introduction to Islam:

Islam is not a new religion, but the same truth that God revealed through all His prophets to
every people. For a fifth of the world's population, Islam is both a religion and a complete way of
life. Muslims follow a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the majority have nothing
to do with the extremely grave events which have come to be associated with their faith.
