Islam is a religion and not a location. Islam religion began in Arabia 1400 years ago but has spread all throughout the world since then. Islam is the world's second largest religion with the population of more than 1.5 billion Muslims. Muslims are everywhere in the world and include different nations, races, and colors. Islam teachings are true teachings that are based upon kindness and mutual respect. Muslims become Muslim by saying "I bearing witness that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah."

_______________________________________________________________

Islam is all over the world and Muslims are spread every where although with different percentages. It is to be emphasized that Islam started by God by start of universe creation and even before.

Islam is not a place, it is a religion. It is not located anywhere rather practiced, all over the world.

The majority of Muslims are in Indonesia (203 millions), Pakistan (174 millions), India (161 millions), Bangladesh (145 millions). Muslims in the middle East are less than 15% of the total world Muslims (not as some think that most Muslims are Arabs and located in the Middle east). Over 50 countries in the world are having Muslims as majority of the total population. Islam religion is represented in nearly every country in the world as Muslims are about 1/4 of world population and is the second world religion after Christianity.

Islam is a religion which has adherents all over the world, but not in equal measure. The region with the highest concentration of Muslims is the Middle East and North Africa which are over 90% Muslim. There are also significant Muslim populations in Southeast Asia (specifically Indonesia and Malaysia), South Asia, Central Asia, Southeastern Europe, West Africa, and the Eastern coast of Africa.
