The religion of Muslims is Islam. The religion of Christians is Christianity. You can talk about 'John Smith's Christianity', but can you talk about (for example) 'Salman Rushdie's Islam'? It doesn't quite scan right to me. I want it to have an '-ism' or something at the end. Can anyone help?

Except that lately "Islamist" has mostly been used in its meaning of "one who advocates the concept of a single orthodox Islamic state".
