Monotheism, or belief in one God, is a belief. There are many monotheistic religions. Islam, Judaism Zoroastrianism and Hinduism are just a few of the many monotheistic religious traditions. Each has its own set of beliefs and practices. Let's see the differences.
Islam
Islam is a monotheistic religion, which emphasizes God’s oneness. Islam holds that God is the only creator and deserving of worship. This concept is highlighted throughout the Qur'an. The Oneness Of Allah is stressed in most verses of the Qur'an.
Christianity, Judaism & Islam are three of the most important monotheistic religious traditions. Abraham is the source of all three traditions. Abraham, the father in Abrahamic religions and the founder of these traditions, was asked to give up his only son. God intervened to save him. He then offered Abraham a ram to sacrifice. In the Bible, the promise messiah is the focal point of Jewish people's hope.
According to Islam, worship is a very important part of Islam. Worship goes beyond mere prayers and rituals. Every person must worship God. These activities may include charitable donations, seeking knowledge, or being a force of good in the world.
Judaism
Judaism is a monotheistic ethnic religion belonging to the Abrahamic family of religions. Its roots lie in the Bronze Age of the Middle East. Its practice is based on Jewish history and beliefs. It is one the most well-practiced religions worldwide, having been around for over two thousand year.
Jewish people believe God created everything, and all humans were created in God's image. Judaism teaches that God will judge us at the end of our lives. It has many rules, traditions, and holidays and is different from other religions. There are approximately 5 million Jews in America today. There are many synagogues in the United States. The Jewish people believe in helping other people and making the world a better place.
The Torah portrays polytheism as a wicked and false religion. Deuteronomy 2:16-17 describes God's accusation of the Israelites of worshiping false gods. Modern scholarship suggests that polytheism originated in monotheism and is a complex question.
Zoroastrianism
Zoroastrianism has a deep impact on the worldviews its followers, even though it is one of most obscure religions. Teachings of the religion include the notions of hell and Heaven, the Judgment Days, and free will. It also teaches that angels and demons exist.
Zoroastrians believe human souls can achieve perfection in this life, and then meditate on their actions in the next. The good balance of deeds leads to paradise, while the evil balance leads to hell. Therefore, Zoroastrianism encourages people to become good and moral beings.
Zoroastrianism may be the oldest existing religion in the universe. Its followers were a well-off minority who believed strongly in education, honesty, respect, as well as respect. Eventually, they fled to India, where they are known today as the Parsis.
