Islam is one of the world's largest religions, with over 1.8 billion followers across every continent. Founded in 7th-century Arabia through the Prophet Muhammad, it spread rapidly across the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, and beyond, giving rise to a rich civilization that shaped science, philosophy, art, and architecture for centuries.
The Islamic Golden Age (8th–13th centuries) produced towering intellectual figures such as Ibn Sina (Avicenna) in medicine, Al-Khwarizmi in mathematics — who gave us the word "algorithm" — and Ibn Rushd (Averroes) in philosophy. The city of Baghdad, capital of the Abbasid Caliphate, became the world's greatest centre of learning, hosting the legendary House of Wisdom. The faith's sacred text, the Quran, was revealed over 23 years and remains memorized in full by millions of *huffaz* worldwide.
From the rituals of Ramadan and the Hajj to the theological split between Sunni and Shia Muslims following the First Fitna, Islamic history is layered with profound events and figures. Whether you know your way around the Five Pillars or the early caliphates, this quiz will put your knowledge to the test.
