This is a very short summary:
GOD or in Arabic (ALLAH) sent an angel (Gabriell) to the prophet Muhammad to teach him about Islam so that the prophet could send the message to all people at first the prophet Muhammad was scared because it was the first time he saw Gabriell but after a while he knew that he was chosen to send this message to the world at first he started it secretly for about 3 years then he came out publicly a lot of people thought it was because he wanted money and power. At first people thought that this wouldn't last long but everyday Islam grew in no. and in power so people started torturing those who entered Islam.When the prophet saw the pain that the Muslims suffered he decided that they should travel to a place where no one would harm them and so they did travel to a place called madyna and continued to grow in power but a lot of people did not like this so they decided to fight the Muslims but from the first fight they lost and Muslims won even though Muslims were less than them in no. after that god wanted the prophet to let everybody that lived know about Islam so the prophet Muhammad would go to each country and ask them to teach people about Islam but all of them refused the prophet would give the country 3 days to think if still the answer was no he would have to invade it so that people could learn about Islam.
p.s : when the prophet went to war he ordered the Muslims not to kill or hurt a woman or a child or an old man and even not to cut a tree or set anything on fire he basically told them to fight the army who was fighting them.
very very short summary

History of Islam is as old as the history of mankind. The first man Hazrat Adam (AS) was the first Muslim and the first Prophet of Islam as Islam is the religion given to mankind by Almighty Allah. All the Prophets had been teaching Islam. The last Prophet of Islam Hazrat Muhammad (May peace be upon him) was born in Makka in 570 AD. He started preaching Islam in 610 at the age of 40. Islam is a universal religion. It is in fact continuity of Judaism and Christianity. It teaches equality of all human beings. It also teaches universal human brotherhood as all humans are the creatures of Almighty God, and He loves them all.
The division between Sunnis and Shiits is the largest and oldest in the history of Islam.
