Evolution of Religions
All people are of one kind (002:214). So the message to them by their Creator must also be the same. Really man is given the same one message, Book (002:003) or Code consisting of the eternally applicable laws of universal application.
Man in his evolutionary stages resembled a newborn who could easily choke if fed solids and fruits. Of necessity during that physically vulnerable stage he is breastfed or nursed in the similar mode. The same way during Man’s stages of intellectual growth he could not be given all the knowledge. Only that part of Eternal Code was passed to him that he could understand and put into practice.
The Creator knew that man during primitive stages could not comprehend all He had in store for him. Whether man crawled out of water or lived on trees or caves he needed time to grow and evolve. As he became aware of the forces of natural elements he started to beg them for warmth and rain. The stars, the moon, the sun (006:077 to 006:079), the earth, the air, the water, he worshiped all. The definition of the word Saa-aiy-eena (002:63) fits such worshipers.
Man ascribed each need to a different deity and made thousands of them to worship, beg from and beseech. Recognized the world over is the prophet Abraham who realized (006:080) that He Who created (006:097 and 098) was the Master of all those elements (085:010) and was more worthy of worship than His creations that showed them so forceful. The concept that God is One became established regardless of whether one believes that Abraham was the same man that Hindus call as Brahama and those worshiping him as the Brahmins. Abraham rejected the deities and the idols that man had set up for each force of Nature. The idol-worshipers tried (Soorah 085) to punish him — and warn others who might follow such dissidents — by throwing him in the fire (021:069) but Almighty God extinguished the fire (021:070) and saved him. The followers of Zoroaster who worship ‘the fire’ that was cooled down and other off-shoots of the Hindus such as Buddhists and Jain essentially believe in the One Supreme Being.
Chronologically many centuries later prophet Moses advanced the mission of Abraham. He managed to remove malpractices like calf-worshiping. His followers known as the sraelites or Jews still profess, preach and practice the Oneness of God Almighty.
About six centuries later a well-known Jewish man Jesus son of Mary preached that God is One and all people are equal. Many followed him, took on his name Christ and are known as Christians. Thus the Judaism evolved into Christianity except those who stayed behind as Jews.
About six centuries later another man named Mohammed s.a.w received the complete Book (005:004) in the form of the Holy Qor-aan. Many worshippers of One God went with the flow of evolution and became Moslems except those who remained adherents of prior faiths.
Next fourteen centuries saw several sages follow the Holy Qor-aan in their own ways. Some as Mojuddids reformed parts of Islaam and remained Moslems, like the Ahmadies. But others founded new religions like Bhais and Sikhs of today. Certainly many more will follow.
