Where can I learn more about Islam? Can you tell me how to pray, how to find a mosque in my area, how to perform the hajj pilgrimage, etc? Animals in Islam is not a comprehensive Islamic site. Our main focus is solely on providing information on animals in Islam and related topics. There are many excellent Web sites that can provide you with further information on Islam, including how to become a Muslim. We suggest you begin with the following:
