Someone who studies the religion Islam is called a Muslim.

Someone engaged in formal or full time study of Islam is called a "Talib ul Ilm" (Student of Knowledge). Not a Sheikh but studying under one or many.

A Muslim also follows the religion. One can study this or any other religion without necessarily following it or even believing in any god, for academic purposes or simply to understand its believers' point of view.
