The Quran and Muslim Culture

Many aspects of our culture is derived from the Quran. Some things that Muslims do almost subconsciously are actually mandated, or encouraged, or allowed by Allah in His holy book the Quran. For example:

• Women wearing the hijab and other Islamic dress standards.
• Greeting other Muslims with “As-Salaamu Alay-kum.” This greeting is standard amongst all Muslims the world over.
• Saying Bismillah (In the Name of Allah) before doing just about anything.
• Saying Inshallah (If Allah Wills) when speaking of future events.
