Islam is the religion of God. It is based on nature. In Islamic Theology the first man sent to the earth by God was Adam who was a prophet or apostle. He lived his life according to the obligations of Islam.

After that the world population started to grow and people started deviating from the way of Islam. Hence God sent many prophets (once again in Islamic theology about 124 thousand of them) to different nations, at different times . However the people kept changing the teachings of their prophets. In 712 A.D, the last prophet Hazrat Mohammad came to this world, through him God completed the religion which is called Islam in this world.The Quran is the complete and most comprehensive book of all which contains every teaching of Islam in it.

So it can be said that Islam started from the creation of this universe. But it was completed about 1400 years ago.
