Islam is derived from the Arabic root "Salema": peace, purity, submission and obedience. In the religious sense, Islam means submission to the will of God and obedience to His law. Everything and every phenomenon in the world other than man is administered totally by God-made laws,
Submission to the good will of God, together with obedience to His beneficial Law, ie, becoming a Muslim, is the best safeguard for man's peace and harmony.
Why do some Muslim men force themselves to get a dark, circular scar in the centre of their forehead caused by pressing it firmly on the prayer rug? What are they trying to convey - that they're holier than you?
