Abrahamic religions
The term Abrahamic religion groups three of the major religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) together due to their historical coexistence and competition;[1][2] it refers to Abraham, a figure mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, the Christian Bible, and the Quran, and is used to show similarities between these religions and put them in contrast to Indian religions, Iranian religions, and the East Asian religions (though other religions and belief systems may refer to Abraham as well).[3][4] Furthermore, some religions categorized as "Abrahamic" also share elements from other categories, such as Indian religions, or for example, Islam with Eastern religions.[5]
Abrahamic religions make up the largest major division in the study of comparative religion.[6] By total number of adherents, Christianity and Islam comprise the largest and second-largest religious movements in the world, respectively.[7] Judaism is the smallest of the three major Abrahamic religions. Samaritanism is the smallest Abrahamic religion. Baháʼí Faith, Bábism, and Druzism are offshoots of Abrahamic religions.[8]
