i saw a video the other day and it was about this a man has questions and directs them to a jew a christian and a muslim isn't that interesting and i was reminded of the most frequently asked questions on the internet why has god sent many religions instead of one prophet and one religion if there have been many religions and new orders throughout history why have we believed the same thing for 1400 years if the bible the psalm and the torah were sent down by god why were they distorted and finally throughout history where did the prophets come and live in today in this video we'll get the answers to these questions let's begin first we need to know that from the first man and the first

prophet adam until the last prophet muhammad peace be upon all of them all the prophets conveyed the same belief system to people while one had faith in angels the other one didn't say no or maybe the main pillars were all the same so if the basics were the same where is the difference the answer to this question is the religious rules that is the sharia of the prophets when i say sharia i don't mean the sharia that most people think of the meaning of the word syria is provisions rules so please remember that when i use this word as we said the basic faith pillars were the same only the rules were different to give a clearer example friday is a blessed day for us muslims but for moses peace

be upon him and his people that day was saturday in fact they considered the saturdays so sacred on that day they completely stopped worldly affairs trade and hunting and they turned to worship another example is during the time of jesus peace be upon him wine was not forbidden but it's forbidden for us there are many rules like these that we do not know of if the basics of the faith systems were the same why were there different sharia and different rules the answer is simple the first difference we need to know here is that the medicine is given regarding the disease the lesson is told according to the student the speech is made considering the listener in other words as centuries and

societies change we actually see that people's needs and mentalities also change and accordingly the lessons and rules have changed until today i'm sure you have a lot of questions so let me give you an example it's 3000 bc and imagine four different societies one of them is in america the other one is in china the other is in saudi arabia and another is in russia four different societies that are completely unaware of each other in terms of civilization and knowledge one is twice as far ahead as the other while the other is five times more developed living conditions merits occupations education levels habits and addictions are completely different from each other so we can say it's almost

as if they live in separate worlds we understand that our lord has sent different rules according to the people who live in different worlds so to speak there were even times when there were different prophets and different syria on the same continent think of a sharia where interest is forbidden however no form of money or banking system has been invented in that society yet but when societies became intertwined relations between states advanced and societies became close to each other in terms of character intelligence and education that is like humanity kind of went from primary school level to high school level that's when they were able to take the same course from a single teacher at

such a time god sent his greatest prophet peace be upon him with the most comprehensive sharia and the greatest book that is the quran and it started to spread all over the world in a short time since there will always be some differences in some details between societies massheps are needed if you want to learn more about this topic you can check out our video from here okay we understood this issue but if the bible and the torah are books of god which means different books have been sent why were they allowed to become falsified in fact the answer to this was in the previous answer as people and societies changed over time a new abolish the rules of the previous one well if god would

abolish the rules of the torah himself and bring a new sharia with jesus why would he protect the torah because he would send new rules and the new book he didn't prevent the previous books from being falsified but since the quran is the last of the books to come and since there will be no more prophets until the end of time its protection is guaranteed and it is still preserved also you can check this video about the preservation of the quran it is said in the 47th verse of the tenth surah surah yunus it translates as for every nation there is a messenger so when their messenger comes the matter is decided between them with justice and they are not wronged we understand from this verse that

a prophet has been sent to every nation that's a very interesting piece of information and you know what is the biggest piece of evidence of this issue we came across the same religious data in societies that had no connection with each other in history and even had no opportunity to meet for example while we see that the flood of noah is told in aztecs and south america we see that the same data is told also in china not only this but the creation of man from dirt or that the sky has seven layers or the world was created in six stages and many more don't you think it's interesting that these two societies are stating the same facts when they couldn't have had any relations with each other

because it was impossible for them to meet anyone who contemplates this understands that a prophet was sent to the american continent and another prophet was sent to china and they learned this information from the single source i guess i don't need to tell you from which source they learned thank you for watching the video is allah
