It's asking you to look up information on the faiths and holy books of each person. You'd compare the notes and facts you gain from that to compare it to each one. Not too hard, right?

    Islam and Hinduism Before we start with the description of Islam and Hinduism we need to understand what its religion, or at least try to comprehend the meaning of religion. The definition of religion is very difficult, many have try but they focus on only the few aspects of religion, some will exclude beliefs, practices and those religions that will not fit well.

To limit religion to only one of these categories is to miss its multifaceted nature and lose out on the complete definition.” The two religion that I choose to investigate are the Hinduism and Islam because Hinduism and Islam are the third and second most popular religion around the world.…

    In “Space”, Thomas A. Tweed characterizes sacred space as differentiated, interrelated, and kinetic. All of these characteristics can be used to justify Jerusalem as a sacred space. The “Holy Land” does not have the qualities of a “great city”. It is not on route to any important place, it does not have a trading market, nor is it on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. However, it does have a small source of water, the Gihon Spring, which is reason enough to settle anywhere.…

Similarly, he was attacked for this teaching, but Zoroastrianism became the state religion of the Persian empire. When the Islamic Arabs conquered Persia in 650 CE, Zoroastrians fled to India where most are concentrated today.…

    It is also the location that Abraham traveled three days with his son Isaac to sacrifice him as a burnt offering for the Lord. The similarities between God asking Abraham to sacrifice his son and God sacrificing his son have not gone unnoticed by scholars. Firstly, Jesus died and rose again in three days, resembling the idea that the day that God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son, was the day that Isaac died. While the moment when God told him not to kill his son, could be considered the moment Isaac was brought back to life in Abraham’s eyes, foreshadowing the idea that Jesus would die and rise again in three days. Secondly Isaac was Abraham’s one and only son, and Jesus was God’s one and only son.…
