Islam is an Arabic word that means “peaceful submission”. Muslims believe that God is the center of all and therefore they must thank him peacefully and devote themselves to God. Muslims, just like Christians, have their main focus on giving themselves to God just as God has done so much. Christianity and Islam, as Hussain explains, also connect with previous stories. Just like Christians have the Bible, Muslims have the Qur’an that reveals God’s truth given to them by Muhammad. In the Qur’an, prophets such as Abraham and Jesus are mentioned along with their stories. For example, according to Hussain, the story of Jesus being burn of a virgin makes him “extraordinary” but not divine (p.55). Therefore, Hussain explains how Muslims have Muhammad who is believed to be the last prophet “who brings God’s final revelation to humanity”. Muhammad is valued by Muslims; they consider him to be a family member who they respect the same way Christians respect
