    Islam began in the 7th century CE in the Arabian Peninsula under the prophet Muhammad. Key beliefs include strict monotheism and that Muhammad is the final prophet of God. After facing persecution in Mecca, Muhammad and his followers migrated to Medina, an event known as the Hijra which marked a turning point. The five pillars of Islam are the shahadah, salat, zakat, sawm during Ramadan, and hajj pilgrimage to Mecca at least once. The Quran contains revelations received by Muhammad over 23 years which guide Muslim life and law.
