Islam is one of the youngest monotheistic religions. The first mention of it dates back to the 7th century. The founder of Islam is considered the prophet Muhammad. Muslims have a number of clear principles and provisions that every Muslim must know and abide by.
Muslim Faith Fundamentals
First of all, every Muslim should know the so-called pillars of the faith of Islam. In Islam, there are five principles or pillars of faith, which are based on the holy scripture of Islam - the Koran. The first pillar says that there is no deity but Allah. A Muslim believes in one God-creator of all things, and polytheism is considered one of the worst sins. The respectable Muslim also believes in the angels of Allah. The Qur'an says that the angels closest to the Creator are the angel of Revelation Jibril; an angel broadcasting the decisions of Allah on the fate of people, Israfil; guardian of hell Malik; angels who meet and question a person after death, Munkar and Nakir; angels of trial Harut and Marut; angel of death and guardian of the paradise of Israel.
The third principle of Muslim faith prescribes an unshakable faith in the prophets - the messengers of Allah. The scriptures and stories about the life of Muhammad require a Muslim to receive all the messengers of the Creator. There are more than 120, 000, but the most faithful are nine. Muhammad is considered the "seal" of the prophets - it was through him that Allah transmitted the Qur'an to people.
The fifth pillar of faith is faith in the coming Judgment Day. Also, every Muslim must believe that everything happens according to the will of Allah. According to the Qur'an, Allah knows everything, and whoever believes in him is on the right path.
