The first Surah Al-Fatiha from a Quran manuscript by Hattat Aziz Efendi.

Islam (Arabic إسلام ‚surrender, submit‘) is a monotheistic religion founded in Arabia in the early 7th century by the Prophet Muhammad and based on strict surrender, devotion and submission to the will of Allah as the one and only God. With 1.6 billion (2010)[1] followers, it is today the second largest and currently the fastest growing world religion after Christianity with approx. 2.2 billion followers (2010)[2].

Under the Sign of the Crescent Moon

With Islam, the ancient Mosaic lunar religion of Yahweh revived six centuries after Christ and thus also reawakened the impulses of Egyptian-Chaldean culture, but in such a way that everything that was then still drawn from ancient clairvoyance is now, stripped of all imaginative imagery, translated into the intellectual. The prohibition of images in Islam, which is not yet contained in the Quran itself, has also developed from this tendency towards abstraction.

„In a certain way, therefore, what was there in the pre-Christian epoch during the ancient Hebrew culture also protrudes again, overlapping the Christ impulse, as it were, into the post-Christian period, so that that which prepared itself in the Yahweh world-view has in a certain way reappeared afterwards and, despite the existence of the other factors, nevertheless plays into the later factors. The reappearance of the Yahweh-Moon-religion can be seen in the religion of the Crescent Moon. In this world-view of Muhammad, the Christ-impulse has at first remained unconsidered, that this Muhammad religion was really a kind of revival of what could be found in the Unity God of Mosaism.“ (Lit.:GA 124, p. 171f)
