QUESTION.
What do Muslims believe?
Answer:
Muslims believe in one, unique, incomparable and singular God, 'Allah' in the Arabic language, literally meaning 'The God'.
They believe in the angels created by Him; in the prophets through whom His revelations were brought to mankind; in God's complete authority over human destiny and in life after death.
Muslims believe in a chain of prophets (may the peace and blessings be upon them all) starting with Adam and including: Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John and Jesus, peace be upon them.
God's final message to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message and a summing-up, synopsis and completion of all that has gone before was revealed to Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, the last Prophet and Messenger, through the angel Gabriel.
