In Islam, God (Allah) is considered the all-powerful, all-knowing, and merciful creator of the universe. The central religious text is the Quran, believed to be the literal word of God as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel. Islam emphasizes the importance of faith, prayer, charity, fasting during Ramadan, and pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj) as key practices. The religion promotes principles of justice, compassion, and submission to God's will. Muslims follow the Five Pillars of Islam as fundamental acts of worship and practice, which are Shahada (faith), Salah (prayer), Zakat (charity), Sawm (fasting), and Hajj (pilgrimage).
