and Judaism) differ in many ways, including how each religion is organized and the belief

history of the world and religious origins, and the use of sacred texts and objects.

in its accordance so just enjoy the article and get knowledge about these most beautiful
religions in the world.
Most Beautiful Religion in The World
Christianity
Christianity is a religion that resonates with over 2 billion adherents, more than 30% of the
world’s population. Although there are clear differences between Protestants, Catholics, and
Orthodox Christians, the core of the belief revolves around the figure of the 1st-century Jesus of
Nazareth. As an Abrahamic religion, Christians claim to believe in a single God who represents
Himself through three identities: Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and God the Father.
Christianity is a monotheistic religion that takes the New Testament and the Old Testament as
the Bible believes that human beings have original sin, and believes that Jesus is the Son of God
(Jesus is the Savior) and was crucified to wash away human original sin and save mankind.
Christianity originated from Judaism and is one of the three major religions in the world
together with Buddhism and Islam.
Another important aspect of Christianity is the death and resurrection of Jesus, where humans
were allowed to repent of all wrongdoings and ultimately spend the afterlife with their beloved
deities. Despite the growing acceptance of secularism, the philosophical values and principles of
Christianity are influential enough to form the backbone of Western institutions.
Islam
Islam has approximately 1.8 billion followers worldwide, most of them in North Africa, West
Asia, and Indonesia. The prophet wanted to restore what he believed to be a corrupt
Abrahamic religion.
Islam is characterized by discipline, a strict requirement to abstain from worldly behavior, and
observe daily rituals. Famous historic discoveries come from Islamic institutions in areas such as
algebra, surgery, architecture, and even coffee. The two main branches of Islam that coexist
with the Muslim world are Sunni and Shia.
The word “Islam” in Arabic means “obedience”, and etymologically, the root means “peace”,
“tranquility” and so on. Therefore, Islam teaches us that in order to achieve true peace of mind,
we must obey God and live according to His divine guidance.
Islam is not a new religion, because “obedience to the will of God”—Islam—has always been
the only connotation of a religion accepted by God. Therefore, Islam is not only the true
“natural religion”, but also the eternal mission revealed by Allah to the prophets and
messengers of all ages.
The missions of all the prophets are inherited in one continuous line, and their main
connotation is always to recognize the uniqueness of the Lord and worship the uniqueness of
the Lord. From the human ancestor Adam to the last messenger Muhammad, including Noah,
Ibrahim, Musa, Dawood, Suleiman, Yahya, Jesus, etc. All the prophets (peace be upon them)
have always been preaching this mission. As Allah says in the Quran.
Hinduism
Hinduism is a religion with 1.1 billion followers, and most Hindus worship only one god,
although they accept the existence of other gods. It’s one of the most beautiful religion in the
world.
The core Hindu values are karma and reincarnation. Karma determines that the moral sum of
our actions will eventually come back to us through consequences or rewards. Reincarnation is
a model of life cycles characterized by reincarnation. Hinduism’s historical contributions to the
world include mathematics as well as astronomy and yoga.
Buddhism
A prince who forsook wealth in pursuit of wisdom, Buddha Shakyamuni was an eclectic figure of
the 5th century BC who brought together many different beliefs to develop a revolutionary
philosophy of human identity and purpose. The goal is to achieve a kind of enlightenment
called Nirvana through meditation, kindness, and hard work. Values revolve around the
absence of an “essential self”, impermanence, and the reality that life is suffering. Therefore,
the primary goal of human beings is the elimination of all forms of suffering.
Buddhism, which has 500 million adherents, has been praised for its effective use of an
egalitarian philosophy that works to abolish the caste system worldwide.
Shintoism
Shintoism is a traditionally nebulous religion in Japan, with no fixed doctrine or origin story. At
its simplest, Shinto beliefs tend toward a fluid concept of gods. Gods have personified concepts
of winds, rivers, trees, and other elements of nature. Due to the influence of Christianity, the
concept of the afterlife was introduced, and some believers believe that people will become
gods after death.
With 104 million followers, Shinto is concerned with ancestors and nature, a belief that can be
understood through an obsession with Japanese storytelling.
Sikhism
Sikhism has 25 million followers. Sikhism promotes the principles of universal egalitarianism
and the belief that all faiths ultimately worship a single deity. A well-known example of this
mentality is the tendency of Sikh temples to have a community kitchen dedicated to providing
free meals to anyone. Sadly, the history of Sikhism is marked by political difficulties and deadly
rebellions against intolerant regimes.
Judaism
The original Abrahamic faith, Judaism has been practiced for over 3,500 years. Archaeological
evidence confirms the existence of two adjacent Jewish kingdoms between 900 BC and 700 BC,
and religious texts postulate that 12 tribes were united in faith before then. Each tribe and later
kingdom claimed to be descended from Abraham.
The faith is monotheistic, in contrast to the polytheistic history of the ancient Levant. Loyalty to
their god “Jehovah” comes from his commitment to them as a chosen people while being
constantly urged by him to return to pious behavior. Despite extreme persecution during World
War II, some 14 million Jews continue to practice their faith today.
Taoism
Taoism is a “one size fits all” belief, a set of principles and axioms that try to guide followers
toward balance. Two “persons” sit at the center of Daoism; Dao itself, and Lao Tzu, a sixth-
century contemporary of Confucius. Lao Tzu and his school of thought believed that Tao was
indefinable and could only be participated in through lived experience. It is a powerful force
that runs through the entire universe and encourages “de”, that is, to uphold the Tao.
Tao is the natural order of the universe and is not regarded as a god. It is believed that people
will merge with Tao after death. Adhering to a virtuous lifestyle, the 12 million followers of
Taoism believe they will reduce suffering. The inaction and passive effort that is in sync with
this balance is the key difference from the more intentional Confucianism.
Confucianism
Many see Confucianism as merely a philosophy, but religion establishes a theological
understanding of the universe, albeit an impersonal one. Among them, the primary task of
human beings is to strive to synchronize with the order of the universe, so as to achieve the
purpose of being one with the sky, and to achieve the tranquility of the community and self.
In addition, Confucianism believes that human beings should behave in ways consistent with
the most obvious morals: charity, obedience to teachers, humility, and compassion. All human
beings are inherently good and must strive to align themselves with this nature.
Caodaism
With nearly 4.4 million followers, Caodaism’s teachings teach harmony, and oneness with a
monotheistic deity, reincarnation, and anti-materialism. In addition to its connections to
Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism, Caodaism asserts the existence of several creator spirits
as well as demons led by Satan-like beings; a dynamic similar to the faith of Abraham.
