Re: How does one know?
so what is a religion and what is a system, name religions and systems to explain. thank u
A religion, such as Islam usually encompasses a particular belief geared to a higher force, with sociological and theological elements implemented for pleasing the higher being by showing aligience to it through rites and traditions which may or may not evolve, and in the long run tend to stagnate by creating a division of society into various classes: Elite, Clergy and Masses.
The system of islam is geared towards socialism with a specific methodology general enough to be adapted to all times... the belief in a higher, intangeable and hyper-transcendant being is an integral part of the governance, but there are no rites other than forming a moral society with emphasis on eradication of social divisions (racisim, religious division etc), spreading a specific message to neighbouring communities/species as being the best example, eradication of poverty, and following this general methodology (doing good and encouraging endurance) for all times for continuous growth and improvement to a state where we (humans) as a race are evolved enough to meet our Maker.
