The word "Islam" is an Arabic word which means "submission to the will of God "Allah - SWT". This word comes from the same root as the Arabic word "salam", which means "peace". As such, the religion of Islam teaches that in order to achieve true peace of mind and surety of heart, one must submit to Allah (SWT) and live according to His Divinely revealed Law. The most important truth that Allah (SWT) revealed to mankind is that there is nothing divine or worthy of being worshipped except for Almighty Allah (SWT), thus all human beings should submit to Him. The word "Muslim" means one who submits to the will of Allah (SWT), regardless of their race, nationality or ethnic background.
Being a Muslim entails willful submission and active obedience to Allah (SWT), and living in accordance with His message. Some people mistakenly believe that Islam is just a religion for Arabs, but nothing could be further from the truth. Not only are there converts to Islam in every corner of the world, especially in England and America, but by taking a look at the Muslim World from Bosnia to Nigeria, and from Indonesia to Morocco, one can clearly see that Muslims come from many various races, ethnic groups and nationalities. It is also interesting to note that in actuality, more than 80% of all Muslims are not Arabs - there are more Muslims in Indonesia than in the whole Arab World! So though even though it is true that most Arabs are Muslims, the large majority of Muslims are not Arabs. However, anyone who submits completely to Allah (SWT) and worships Him alone is a Muslim.

Hello, I am a Christian woman, and my daughter is married to a Muslim man from Egypt. I am trying to learn all I can of Islam. I love my daughter and her husband,whom I have never met.

Please, I do not want to miss judge your beliefs nor do I want to offend you. I want to learn.

My daughter and I don't agree on everything, but we didn't agree on ANY thing before she choose to change her faith.

God loves us all HE created ALL of us, He is love and that is what He calls us to do. He does not want to reject any of His creation.

If any believer rejects any of Gods creation (man), and without understanding, Do we also reject Him?

Thank you for asking this question and thank you also to Punter for explaining something I did not know.
