Islam is a religion which was not founded by a single person at any particular place. Islam was founded by Adam (as) when he was born on "Sanrandeep" island which is now known as "Sri Lanka" and then it was amended by the successive Prophets of Allaah until Rasoolullaah (saws) when Allaah pronounced in the Qur'an that "I have completed My Favor and Blessings" and this will never change till the day of Qayamat.
A major misconception amongst many people is that the religion Islam was founded by A specific person in a specific time period which is absolutely wrong.Islam was there before the creation of the world. Hazrat Adam was a Muslim and every other Prophet that came in this world was a Muslim.So Islam didn't begin in a specific time period it was there since the beginning of time.

God founded the religion of Islam. Refer to question below.
The Islam religion was founded by Allah (God in English and same God worshiped in Christianity and Judaism) since start of universe creation. Refer to related question below.
Islam; per the call of prophet Muhammad (PBUH); started in the city of Mecca (currently in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) by the revelation of the first verses of Quran by God to Prophet Muhammad through the Angel Gabriel in year 610 AD. Quran revelation on the prophet continued after his Immigration to Medina (also in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) and until prophet death in year 632 AD.
AnswerIslam, per Quran revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) began in the holy city of Mecca (or Makkah). The Islamic year counting starts with Muhammed migration to the city of Medina because he called for Allah as the only God. AnswerThe true split between Judaism and Islam occurred when Abraham impregnated Hagar, the maidservant of Sarai (Abraham's wife). When Sarai bore Isaac, Abraham; per God command; took Hagar and her son (Ishmael) to the vicinity of Kabah in Mecca (or Makkah). This is accounted in Genesis, starting in chapter 16.This is the very beginning of Islam per prophet Abraham call to Islam, because through Ishmael, the Islamic people came to be. You will notice that the "father" of both Judaism, Christianity, and Islam is prophet Abraham.
AnswerIslam originally began since the first creation. They first creation was made to do something for God, which was worship. The first creation worshiped God. Therefore, submitting to his will. This is what a Muslim is. They submit to God's will. They worship him and only him as he is the Creator. Later, more creations came to be and received revelation to do the same as the Creator wants. It came directly to a man named Adam, of whom is the first human being. Then, continued as the Ten commandments, the Bible, and finally the Quran. They are all the same message except, they came to a single person or being before spreading to more than one. Being humans,we have our own choice of whether we want to accept this message or abandon it.As mentioned above, Abraham(as) was of those who submitted to God, and brought the message to his people. His people, being so far apart in time from us would've caused much confusion if we were to read or hear them in their dialect. Also, just like in the telephone game , even more confusion would arise if word of mouth is used to tell us about what they have learned. So, every Prophet came to their own people , which is very convenient. Then we get to the last Prophet, Prophet Muhammad (saw). He is the only one that was given the Quran, with it's historic stories and universal morals, and was promised to have this revelation preserved until the end of time.
The Quran has no other versions and is exact same message as it was originally, no additions or subtractions. It speaks of people that is mentioned in other books such as the Bible. The Bible is a book of Islam but we recognize it as corrupted by people after it's revelation, not during.
There are many scientific miracles mentioned in the Quran, discoveries we've only begun to find, and wisdom that we can't fathom.
Islam originally began where ever Allah made his first creation. But it historically began on the Arabian Peninsula, in the towns of Mecca and Medina.
