So what do you have to say on the idea of (see below)? Muslims like Abraham, before Muslims like Muhammad. Considering, Islam = Submission/Surrender (to the will of One Creator God). Muslim = One who submits (i.e. in a State of Submission/Surrender). The Arabic word 'Muslim' is like a verb/active participle. Therefore, it is all about what we do/are doing, not what we claim to be. Intentions, words and deeds, especially how actions speak louder than words.

The Arabic word 'Muslim' is like a verb/active participle. I'm sure it is similar in English as well.... Like a Christian is a form of living and belief... I think that's just standard when referring to religions in general, when someone claims to be something, Muslim, Christian or whatever, it brings the thought to mind that they are or act in a particular manner, while practicing certain rituals.... I often find those who make religious affiliational claims, fall considerably short of their perceived values though....
