As one of the three Abrahamic religions—the others being Judaism and Christianity—it too is a monotheistic faith that worships one God, called Allah. The word Islam means “submission” or “surrender,” as its faithful surrender to the will of Allah. Although its roots go back further in time, scholars typically date the creation of Islam to the 7th century, making it the youngest of the major world religions. Islam started in Mecca, in modern-day Saudi Arabia, during the time of the prophet Muhammad. Today, faith is spreading rapidly throughout the world.

It is during this month that Muslims believe the first verses of the Quran - “Islam's holy book “- were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. Fasting during the month of Ramadan, called the sawm, is considered one of the five pillars of Islam that shape a Muslim's life.
