am Proud Muslim. We all are proud to be muslims ? what makes muslim to be proud ? Word Islam is another word for peace. And word Muslim means those who surrender themselves to Allah. Islam is the second largest religion in the world. The religion of peace and simplicity. The religion that promotes justice and equality. Muhammad Peace be Upon Him is a real pride for Muslims in Islam as a best leader and guide to spend a successful life.

It tells us everything on every matter of life in a simple way. Everyone in Islam is equal. Even if you are white or black, there is no superiority over one another and you are treated equal. Islam is the only pure religion that shows us how to live a successful life and go to Heaven in the Hereafter. Muslims are proud to be Muslims because it is the only right and true religion with God. Therefore all Muslims have great respect for their religion. We are really grateful to Allah for this regard that He created us Muslims. This gratefulness make Muslims closer to Allah. We have shared some visuals of proud to be Muslim quotations which shows that what is the reason that make us a Proud Muslimah
