The word Islam means "submission to God", Allah in Arabic; followers of Islam are known as Muslims. Islam, the world's second largest religion, is one of the three major world's religions evolving from Abraham, an ancient Semitic patriarch who rejected multiple gods for the Oneness of God. "He is God, the one and only. Allah, the Eternal, Absolute the Self-Sufficient master. He begetteth not, nor is he begotten. And there is none like unto Him."
Muslims "testify" the prophet Muhammad (c. 570–632) to be the last of the Prophets that include Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Muslims believe the Qur'an (Koran) as the codified final revelation of God to humanity. One of the Five Pillars of Islam is Hajj or pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime for all who have an ability to do it. Declaration that Allah is the only One worth of worship and Muhammad is the final Messager, Prayer, Almsgiving, and Fasting are the other pillars of Islam. Jihad is precisely translated to mean struggle or endeavor with one's own conscious, not to project your inner struggle outwardly.
