Description

Choose any religion apart from christianity and African tradition. After choosing, i will further give you the links to those religion

For students that are merely interested in a short list of my expectations, I simply want you to read about two traditions and write in two to three pages (this means nothing short of two full pages, double spaced, 12 point New Times Roman font): 1) what the key features are of each tradition you selected; 2) how the authors of the readings you selected dealt with (or did not deal with) some of the issues brought up in class over the first two weeks; 3) briefly compare and contrast the two traditions (this is where you have the most leeway, you can look at ritual, specific beliefs or doctrines, etc., really just about anything goes here); 4) finally, briefly mention how your use of comparison helped you or hindered you in understanding the two traditions; what else might have to be looked at; or what questions do you still have after this exercise; and do you feel your understanding of "religion" has increased, stayed the same, or perhaps even decreased?

The essays, however, should not be written in conversational form as the discussion boards are written, which is why I have included the link to the OWL at Purdue. You will need topic sentences, transition sentences, an introductory paragraph, a thesis statement, and you will need to cite. Do not use websites like “Wikipedia,” for this assignment I do not need a bibliography (or works cited page, or references) as long as you only use course materials, but within the text, any idea that is not your own original idea will require you to reference the author and page number in parenthesis

A Comparative Review of Islam and Hinduism
The study of religions is an interesting subject because one gets to learn how different
people and communities view the world. The focus in this paper is a comparative study of two
traditions and religions: Islam and Hinduism. This paper aims to compare the doctrines, beliefs,
rituals, and social dimension of these two world religions.
Features of Hinduism and Islam
As Smart puts it, some world religions are influenced by geographical boundaries. An example is
Hinduism. The term Hindu originated from the people who lived beyond river Sindhu or river
Indus. The Persians who came to India through the Himalayas first used the term. Before the
advent of Muslims to India, the term Hindu did not exist. Hinduism comes from the word Hindu.
It was given to people in Indus land because they had multiple beliefs and faith. The term
Hinduism suggests that it is a unified system of beliefs and ideas. However, this is not the case
because it does not owe its origin to any prophet or legend. It does not have uniformly accepted
belief sacraments, rituals, and practices. There are no criteria for observing the rules in
Hinduism.
On the other hand, Islam means ‘salaam’ which means peace. It also means that one
should submit their will to Allah- the Almighty God. Therefore, it is peace acquired by
submitting to Allah. Islam is a religion that has existed since time immemorial with Prophet
Muhammad as the final messenger of Islam. Islam Began in the 7th century BC. It encompasses
several cultures, languages...
