51. Islam
It originated in Arabia in the XNUMXth century, therefore it is the youngest world religion. The founder was the prophet Muhammad. The basic principles of Islam are set forth in the Koran - the holy book of Muslims (VII-VIII centuries).
Islam has two main currents.
1. Sunnism. Along with the Koran, the Muslim sacred tradition recognizes - sunnah (VII-XI centuries).
2. Shiism. Unlike Sunniism, it does not recognize Sunni caliphs; it only recognizes the Alids.
The main dogma of Muslims is the worship of one god - Allah. Mohammed, who is the messenger of Allah, is very revered among Muslims.
Like Christianity, Islam believes in the immortality of the soul. Muslims also believe in an afterlife.
It is very important for Muslims islamic columns. These are five instructions that Muslims must follow. These include.
1. Shahada - belief in one god - Allah, veneration of his messenger Muhammad.
2. Salad - one of the main Islamic rituals, consisting in five daily prayers.
3. Sauna - fasting during the month of Ramadan (Ramazan) of the Muslim lunar Hijri year.
4. Sunset - charity to the poor.
5. Hajj. At least once in your life you need to make a pilgrimage to the main religious center of Islam - to Mecca, to the Kaaba temple.
Islam is characterized by a very strict monotheism (the idea of a single god). Allah is omnipotent, terrible and incomprehensible. And the whole human world is a sign of the God of Allah, which indicates his power. The difference between Islam and other world religions is that a person cannot ascend to God, cannot fully comprehend all his secrets, but at the same time he is obliged to believe in these secrets. Islam is not tolerant of other religions and worldviews. One of the basic precepts of Islam is jihad (war for faith), according to which it is necessary to spread Islam, even waging a "holy war" against adherents of other faiths.
Islam is a very influential religion; if the importance of other religions in the modern world fades into the background, then in the Muslim world the influence of religious views on the life and culture of supporters of Islam is enormous. Today there are about 9 million adherents of Islam. Islam mainly covers the countries of the East.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship
08.05.2024
Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Wearable device for emergency call of rescuers
25.06.2015
Mace has launched sales of a miniature wearable electronic device Mace Alert 911, which is designed to call rescuers in an emergency.
In fact, Mace Alert 911 is a specialized cellular terminal that operates without a monthly fee and performs one single function - to help preserve the health and life of its user in a critical situation. With the push of a button, it allows you to contact a 911 dispatcher for two-way voice communication. In addition, the device is equipped with a test button and a call cancel button.
Without replacing the power source, which is three AAA lithium cells, the device with dimensions of 64 x 61 x 19 mm works for a year.
Among those who will need the device in the first place, the manufacturer names children and the elderly, as well as those who work alone and will not be able to call a colleague for help if something happens.
The device costs $250. The kit includes a detachable clip for attaching to clothing and a band for wearing around the neck with a holder that prevents accidental pressing of the call button.
