people are being wayy too discriminating here and frankly rather rude and offensive..i dont reckon u would like it if i made fun of ur religon now
islam means so many different things to different people. i get how ppl are being just plain insensitive and saying it means blah blah but yea..its like how u do a good deed for no reason at all and feel good about urself
the people who make headlines for blowing themselves up or wva sh*t they do DOES NOT define islam

Depends who you ask - there seems to be a variety of Islams on offer. Just like Christianity. Like all religion, it will mean whatever any given follower wants it to mean since it is not based on reality so the follower is not constrained by the real world.

Islam comes from the word "submission" (not peace) and muslims are the one's who submit to the so-called God's laws, revealed in the Koran and maybe in the ways of the prophet too.
Luke.

What do you mean?
Islam is a religion, the followers of which are called Muslims.
If I've missed your point, sorry.
The holy book is the Koran (or Qu'ran, and a few other ways of writing it). Have a read!

Submission to Allah (God).
Sound familiar? Us Christians say every Sunday (every day?) "Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."
Therefore, true Muslims and Christians surrender to God, and commit to doing the will of God.
Peace.

Own your women, kill infidels, blow yourself up for 72 virgins and die with a pork-roll sandwich in your mouth, pretty easy question.
