Islam 101

This is a site which explains some of the basic priciples of Islam. An interesting read for someone like myself who is completely ignorant when it comes to religious stuff.

A Bit of Trivia: The Sears Tower and John Hancock building were designed by a Muslim.

Note: Faislur Khan (sp?) was the structural engineer for Skidmore Owings and Merrill (Chicago's largest architectural firm) which created the two bldgs. He was a very talented engineer. His grave is in Graceland Cemetery (Clark & Irving) like nearly every figure from Chicago's architectural world (except Frank Lloyd Wright).
