Islam has the meaning of "surrender", or surrender completely to God (Arabic: الله, Allāh). Followers of Islamic teachings are known as Muslims which means "one who submits to God" [5] [6], or more fully is Muslim for men and Muslimat for women.
Islam teaches that Allah revealed His word to humans through His prophets and messengers, and firmly believes that Muhammad is the last prophet and messenger to be sent to the world by Allah.
Early period
Islam began in 611 when the first revelations were revealed to the last messenger, Muhammad bin Abdullah in the Cave of Hira ', Saudi Arabia.
Muhammad was born in Mecca on the 12th of Rabiul Early Year of the Elephant (571 BC). He was born in the midst of the Quraysh tribe in the days of ignorance, in the life of desert tribes who liked to fight and worship idols. Muhammad was born orphaned, because his father Abdullah died while he was still in the womb. When he was 6 years old, his mother Aminah died. After leaving his mother, Muhammad was raised by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib and continued by his uncle, Abu Talib. Muhammad then married a widow named Siti Khadijah and lived a simple life.
