Now you can join the club because Muahmmad the founder of the religion of peace (sic) also had no clue about how to respond to such a profound question (who really created Allah) that was posed to him by what I suspect were Ebionites ...

So what does this have to do with the fact that islam and salam are very different words?

I will leave the answer here to some other time
