Islam has been in existence as a world religion for more than fourteen centuries. Its main mission has been to provide mercy to the whole mankind (Chapter 21 : Al-anbiya', verse 107). Muslims built a majestic Islamic civilisation and for more than 800 years, dominated one of the largest empire on the face of the earth. This civilisation has tremendously contributed to mankind in the fields of science, the arts, skills of exploration, navigation, trade and industry. Yet, till this day Islam remains a misunderstood religion, both by the Muslims and moreso, the non-Muslims.
