First Introduction to God

How do people get their first introduction to God in different cultures?

In Muslim families its adhaan in ears of new born baby…

Read that in some tribes of Africa, father of new born, say name of the child in his/ her ears thrice and then put the baby in his (arms upward to sky) and say to baby: There is someone more powerful than you.

Re: First Introduction to God

parents/grand parents saying "Allah" 24/7 while playing with the baby. however, babies' first word is usually ma, mum, umm which is phonetically the easiest words [half words] to say.

Re: First Introduction to God

There is another aspect of this question. normally people are introduced to God, when they don't have any sense (childhood). Normally, How and when people get introduction to God, when they reach an age where they can understand / have some sense?

Re: First Introduction to God


true...and, the age at which they get real meaningful introduction to God depends on individual parents across the globe. some at a very early age, some in their teens, some in their adulthood and some never do. it all depends how close their parents are to God.

Re: First Introduction to God

In the literal meaning of the word "Introduction"...........None of us ordinary people has ever been introduced to the Almighty Allah Subhana hu wa Taala! it is like as they say a "Ghaibana Taaruf" we have to believe in the unseen like the Holy Quran States! "youminouna bilghaib" but life is a gift from the Almighty and over the years we can hope to achieve Ihsan!

The first thing that an Air Force kid listens to, is the jet roar

I think I heard 29's roar :D

Re: First Introduction to God

I think Amrit Chakhna (baptism) is the first formal introduction of a Sikh baby to God.

Re: First Introduction to God

No not that I think

None of us (father side) have done this.

Secondly, I here agree to champ, that let kids find the god on their own, and if they don't it doesn't make them bad anyway :)
