Islam

Islam is an attitude towards the world AND the Creator; a disposition of the soul voluntarily accepted And a practice consistent with it. It is the path of health, peace and salvation. And in all these senses it is NOT just a religion, but rather a way of life supported by a doctrine, a worldview that encompasses all human topics and interests. The term Islam comes from the Arabic root sim which includes the ideas of peace (silm, salám), health (saláma), and salvation. It literally means the state of submitting to divine will to obtain peace AND salvation. Whoever proceeds in this way, he submitted to the divine Will and to his Commands, is a muslim, a Muslim. Muslims never designate themselves with reference to the name of the messenger of Islam, Muhammad, so denominations such as Mohammedanism or Mohammedan DO NOT fit.
