A community portal about The Qur'an with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Qur'an , is the central religious text of Islam. Muslims believe the Qur'an, in its original Arabic, to be the literal word of God that was revealed to Muhammad over a period of twenty-three years until his death, and believe it to be God's final revelation to humanity .
The popular Western view of the word Islam meaning "peace" is neither accurate nor Qur'anic. Qur'anically speaking, Islam means "submission" or "surrender." But certainly not "peace" by any definition! Islam cannot be defined as a religion in the Western sense of the word; neither can it be termed as a faith.
