Muslim Identity

Muslim identity refers to a person’s sense of self rooted in the beliefs, practices, and community of Islam, a monotheistic Abrahamic religion. It involves adherence to the Quran and Hadith, belief in one God (Allah), and following the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. Cultural, ethnic, and personal factors shape how individuals express their faith, but core Muslim identity emphasizes devotion, ethical conduct, and a sense of belonging to the global Muslim community (Ummah). It can influence daily life, values, and interactions, fostering a shared spiritual and cultural connection among Muslims worldwide.
