Despite the condemnation and criticism towards Islam, it seems that Islam has more converts than any other religion on this planet today.

If Islam teaches cruelty and violence, please read about Muslim Spain 10th - 16th Century the contribution of Islamic scholars is immense. In fact Islam would not have spread to the various parts of the earth had it not for its pure theological belief.

All other religion teaches a belief based on 'more than one god' whereas Islam is the only religion that teaches One God or the Unity of God. Apparently, this appeals to the human mind.
