the reason kamachi didn't use islam is because islam didn't have any god or any mythology

That's...not true? Or rather, you have a strange definition of mythology if it includes Christianity and Judaism, but somehow excludes Islam despite the fact that the 3 are Abrahamic. Archangel Gabriel (Jibril) is in Islam as well you know? And that's ignoring the fact that Arabic lore and litterature, especially the Arabian Nights, use Djinni (Genies) many times, which, I remind you, are mentionned and featured in the Qur'an.

Besides, Kamachi could have always used the pantheon of clan deities the Arabs worshipped before the advent of the Prophet, as reccounted in the Book Of Idols, if he felt too uncomfortable using Islam.

since the god (Allah) use a messenger or prophet to teach their own tribe or clan

Not really different from Jesus Christ and the Apostles, isn't it?

'''Yeah! Islam don't have any mythology like others'''

I don't consider Islam (or any religions for that matter) mythology, but how exactly do you make the distinction between it and Christianity, which doesn't have mythology as well?

Besides, we also cannot visualize in ANY way our prophet looks, physical and spiritual about our Messenger

Who said Islam in ToAru should have anything to do with representing the Prophet? Don't just do it and it should be fine, no?

 And, We prohibited from doing something fictional of our religion in story or arts

Really? I wasn't aware, but that does make a good argument against using Islam in ToAru.

While I'm at it, I will get a Muslim's opinion on a similar matter, another fictional franchise. Would say that the abilities of Assassin in Fate/Stay Night, namely his Protection from Wind and his Zabaniya, based on their descriptions could be considered an offense to the Islamic faith?

Everything must based on Koran and Hadith

What about the Sira?

I'm a Muslim which is the term for Islamic male believers!

Wait, since when female believers are named differently?

EDIT: huh, research tells me that Muslimah is apparently the term for female believers and Muslimin is the plural. Learn something everyday I guess.
