It's emphasis on charity and tolerance and also the fact that it did not discriminate between rich and poor, although I don't think it always measured up to the ideals.

Islam is a framework of morals that is shaped around human nature. It is logical, flexible and progressive. Unfortunately some Muslims are NOT hahah. It has simple doctrines. God is God. There are no sons, no daughters, no demi-gods, no trinity etc. He has prophets to spread his word. The Quran is the last and final word of God in its exact preserved form. The hadiths are an account of the Prophet's actions. You can use these at your own discretion (that's where most arguments come). There are different ways to live by Islam from Sunni to Shiah to Sufism but we all believe in the basic principles. It is a brotherhood. It is all I could ask for in life! :-)

Mine will be a bit long
Islam usually encourage people to think and not to follow just as a religion and in fact the first word in Islam was READ was relayed to Mohammad PBUH.
It discusse the science like if a scientest was dicussing his speciality with confiedence.
like e.g if you talk about the issue of human being creation, it discusse the early stages of emberyo and give it the typical describtion " some of these issue has been published by textbook of emberiology by one of the leaders in this subject and he him self is not Muslim from Canada".
If come to Astrology will find the describtion of stars and the creation of the earth and sky very specific and these informations has been discovered recently by scientest mostly non Muslims even.
I'll give an example for this like what we are perciving in the sky is not the STARS but only there lights and star might has fanished or move somewhere.
If you he talk about the sea you find surprizing knowledge about the occeans and how some of these still harburring an active valcano's with burnning fire under the sea??
and a lot of these scientific facts whih ALLAH has SWEARED to show it to non believerse to show them that this is the true religion!
And if refuse or accept it is up to you but YOU and ONLY you will responsible to your self not others.
Islam is awide subjects and cann't be discussed in short, but I do encourage every body to read abiut it, you are not forced to be Muslim but see where is the truth where you can't close your brain or eyes, it is the power of ALLAH ALMIGHTY .

That everything in it makes sense, and all of it is connected to each other, it is the unaltered version of God's original word, the one that was altered by many other religions, e.g. Christiainity and Judaism)(NO offense), Priests and relgious people of other religions that want to communicate with God and can't through Christianity, but they find it through the islamic way of Prayer.

Mohammed couldn't read and he recited a great deal of the stories in the Bible without a great deal of deviation. Many people believed that this could only mean he had a theophany.
