Islam is one of the world’s oldest religions, believed to date as far back as 622 A.D/CE when Prophet Muhammad received the first divine revelations from Allah and began constructing the foundations for what would become one of the most popular monotheistic faiths in history.
Muslim chronology starts with Anno Hijra (AH), which marks the date of Prophet Muhammad’s move from Mecca to Medina in 622 A.D/CE and marks year 1 in the Islamic calendar. From this point, all dates used in Islamic history will be according to AH that are considered new years days by many Muslims.
This is a myth that Islam is older than Christianity when someone asked the question “how old is the Islamic religion“.
