Islam is the second-largest religion in the world after Christianity, with about 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide. 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, the faith is spreading rapidly throughout the world.

About 23% of the global population term themselves followers of Islam, making it the second most popular religion after Christianity.


"Whoever kills an innocent... it is as though he has killed all mankind. And whoever saves a life, it is as though he had saved all mankind."

Qur’an, 5:32[1]

Origin

History of Islam - Karya Atakan

Islam is the second-largest religion in the world after Christianity, with about 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide. 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, the faith is spreading rapidly throughout the world. Widely practiced in the Middle East and North Africa, it is also has many adherents in South Asia—Indonesia, in fact, has the largest number of followers of the Islamic faith.[2]

As of 2020, 1.8 billion or more than 25% of the world population are Muslims. By the percentage of the total population in a region considering themselves Muslim, 91% in the Middle East-North Africa (MENA), 89% in Central Asia, 40% in Southeast Asia, 31% in South Asia, 30% in Sub-Saharan Africa, 25% in Asia, 1.4% in Oceania, 6% in Europe, and 1% in the Americas.[3]

Factions

The biggest split amongst Moslems is Shia/Sunni.

“The British had been deliberately exploiting and exacerbating the Shia/Sunni divide as early as 1836 to the Imperial purpose.”
Craig Murray (20 December 2018)  [4]

Corporate Media

Since around 2001, the commercially-controlled media has been consistently linking Islam with "terrorism" and "extremism". Having researched big media's sources of information for "terrorism" stories, David Miller suggests that arms of the UK government such as MI5 are deliberately encouraging hatred of Muslims.[5] Russian media quickly followed Vladimir Putin's official narrative about the Russian apartment bombings, where Muslims were blamed, even though non-Russian journalists, politicians and police officers died in suspicious circumstances after questioning and trying to disprove that claim.[6]

Since immigration in Europe and to the US caused a lot more Muslims to live in Europe, a lot of young Muslim people are said to have fallen to radicalism causing them to join Islamic "terror" groups. Until the 2000s, this wasn't even formally a term in western communities, as most Muslims only killed each-other in regional conflicts.[7]

Since the events of 9-11 2001 were officially blamed on "19 Muslim men", a campaign has been underway to cultivate the enemy image of the fanatical Muslim "terrorist". Public perceptions of the Muslim faith have been shaped by the multiplicity of false flag attacks attributed to "Islamic terrorists". Operation Gladio/B, a development of the original Operation Gladio, replaced communism with Islam as its choice of enemy image. The Al Qaeda brand is was originally dominant, but was later replaced by ISIL. Local branding is used in Africa (Boko Haram).

In 1947 and 1948 officials from MI6, the armed services, the UK Colonial Office and the UK Foreign Office undertook Operation Embarrass, a series of false flag attacks intended to try to stem Jewish immigration. These wre blamed a fictional group, the 'The Defenders of Arab Palestine'. The operation was exposed in 2010.[8]

Radical Islam

How Did Radical Islam Get Spread Throughout the World?

Western media , often point to oil-rich countries in the middle east often point to forms of Islam promoting violence against non-Muslims, often not mentioning most - if not all - of these countries rely on the US in parapolitics, placing questions, who is promoting who.[9][10][11] The dependence on Islam oil countries, is slowing down somewhat, because of American fracking on their own soil.[12]

China

In 2018 the BBC accused China of "locking up hundreds of thousands of Muslims without trial in its western region of Xinjiang", and stated that "Uighur government officials are prohibited from practising Islam, from attending mosques or from fasting during Ramadan." The Chinese government reportedly countered that people willingly attended special “vocational schools” (complete with guard towers), as part of its program to which combat "terrorism" and religious "extremism".[13]

Joe Biden“Our allies in the region were our largest problem in Syria. The Turks were great friends, and I have a great relationship with Erdogan, [who] I just spent a lot of time with, [and] the Saudis, the Emirates, etcetera. 
   What were they doing? They were so determined to take down Assad, and essentially have a proxy Sunni-Shia war, what did they do? They poured hundreds of millions of dollars and tens of tons of weapons into anyone who would fight against Assad – except that the people who were being supplied, [they] were al-Nusra, and al-Qaeda, and the extremist elements of jihadis who were coming from other parts of the world.
   Now, you think I'm exaggerating? Take a look. Where did all of this go? So now that's happening, all of a sudden, everybody is awakened because this outfit called ISIL, which was al-Qaeda in Iraq, when they were essentially thrown out of Iraq, found open space and territory in [eastern] Syria, [and they] work with al-Nusra, who we declared a terrorist group early on. And we could not convince our colleagues to stop supplying them.
So what happened? Now, all of a sudden – I don't want to be too facetious – but they have seen the lord. Now we have ... been able to put together a coalition of our Sunni neighbors, because America can't once again go into a Muslim nation and be the aggressor. It has to be led by Sunnis. To go and attack a Sunni organization. And so what do we have for the first time? President Erdoğan told me, he is an old friend, said you were right, we let too many people through, now we are trying to seal the border.”		Joe Biden
The Washington Post		2014
George Carlin“Sanctity of life. You believe in it? Personally, I think it’s a bunch of shit. Well, I mean, life is sacred? Who said so? God? Hey, if you read history, you realize that God is one of the leading causes of death. Has been for thousands of years. Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Christians all taking turns killing each other ‘cause God told them it was a good idea. The sword of God, the blood of the land, vengeance is mine. Millions of dead motherfuckers. Millions of dead motherfuckers all because they gave the wrong answer to the God question. “You believe in God?” “No.” Boom. Dead. “You believe in God?” “Yes.” “You believe in my God? “No.” Boom. Dead. “My God has a bigger dick than your God!” Thousands of years. Thousands of years, and all the best wars, too. The bloodiest, most brutal wars fought, all based on religious hatred.”George Carlin
