The primary scriptures of Islam are the Quran , viewed by Muslims as the verbatim word of God , and the teachings and normative example ( called the sunnah , composed of accounts called hadith ) of Muhammad ( 570 -- 8 June 632 CE ) . Mûsâ al ibn Amram ( [ ٰمُوسَى , Mūsa ] ) known as Moses in the Hebrew Bible , considered a prophet , messenger , and leader in Islam , is the most frequently mentioned individual in the Quran . The Quran ( [ kɔrˈɑːn ] ; القرآن , literally meaning `` the recitation '' ; also romanized Qur ` an or Koran ) is the central religious text of Islam , which Muslims believe to be a revelation from God ( Allah ) .
