Muslim means the believer who submits his/her will to God Almighty - The Creator and Lord of universe.

Muslim believe in one god and call him Allah since no other name can define his attributes so nicely.

Islam is not a new religion. It is a continuation of the spiritual teachings /faith brought by prophet Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and finally prophet Muhammad, peace be upon all.

Muslims adopted customs and traditions from the regional cultures around Middle east and made them Islamic traditions in the light of Commandments given in The Nobel Quran. Muslim Customs became unique and different with the spiritual guidance based on New Commandments.

In islam there's no traditions,
Please read all answers by Muhammad Ishfaq, there's the custom in Islam. As we study history, traditions is practice by group of ppl. Islam is a religion not a culture or a custom. Same as a christians. The traditions and custom came from the country they live in.

Islam is the continuity of the religion from Adam pbuh updated/refined with the growth of collective human mind up to the highest level achieved at the last/final Prophet of Allah, Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Holy Qura'n is the final updated and well refined word of Allah All Mighty, the complete code of life. It was revealed on Muhammad pbuh, in 23 years, 13 years in Makkah and rest 10 years in Madeena.

Islam is based upon 5 basic pillers.
1) Taoheed (Islamic monotheism) "there is no Deity/God except Allah, Muhammad is Allah's Messenger"
2) Sala (daily 5 times obligatory prayers) to be performed in proper way, on right time daily.
3)Fasting The luminary month of Ramadan is fixed as the fasting month in Arabic calender.
4) Zaka (obligatory Charity, 2.5% of annual income after expenditures) to be paid poor Muslims
5) Hajj, (sami/conditional obligation) Muslims having resources and bodily health to visit Makkah holy Kaaba, once in life.

Muslims believe Jesus(Isa pbuh) as prophet of Allah, not son of God, was lifted up in heaven, will come back as a follower of Muhammad pbuh and will clerify the Christians beliefs.

Not shaking hands is one of them. Its a common custom in the west, but in some places its seen to be a form of extravegance (touching body parts denotes the 'honor' of doing so) and thus is against modesty. Instead, a slight bow and a smile usually suffices.

There are a few more, but like all things, it comes with cultural differences. For example, I know many Australian muslims who have no trouble in shaking hands. It depends more on the local culture, and of the individual.

I am not sure, but since that faith drove my kid sister insane, not ONE member of Islam has gone to the insane asylum to comfort or show her support, I guess all organized religion is the same these days.
