The Rise of Islam
How did islam begin and who started it?Islam started in 630 AD
Muhammad said that he was a descendent from Ishmael and that he was the decendent to take revenge on the Christians. People said that Muhammad was a prophet like Jesus and that Jesus was just a man.. Muhammad created a bible for the Islamic religion, The Q'uran. Muhammad also said that God dictated it to him. The Q'uran states that its a crime to try and depict a picture of God because he is unknowable. There are two ways to read the Q'uran. One half states that Islam should be peaceful to their neighbors, but the other half of the book states "If people dont believe in "Allah" , and Muhammad, then they must be cut frm the earth because they are poison to all people." |
