Download or read book World's major religions, doctrines and sects written by Abdul Waheed and published by Abdul Waheed . This book was released on with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the population of the world is still of those who believe in religion. Religion is the priceless heritage of man. There are many religions in almost every country of the world. The ancient history of that country is still present in the holy books of that religion. Religion books are the only source of knowledge of ancient history, but today in the modern age (scientific age) the new generation is turning away from religion. The biggest reason for this is lack of proper knowledge about religion and not reading holy books. In today's era, identification of sects in every religion is due to new things (concoctions) in religion. It is almost impossible to get information about religious sects because there is lack of books related to it, and no one gives correct information. I wanted to know about this in many religions but no one told about it and I met many alims (scholars) but could not get any clear information and I went to Parsi (Zarathustra) pastor but there also got disappointed And met Arya Samaj and many other people but everyone said that you should read your holy book (Quran Sharif). Then I thought why these people are not giving any information? Many people provoked me not to get into its affair, otherwise there could be a fight. Then I took support of libraries but that too lacked Hindi language books, so I took support of English, Urdu, B.A., M.A. books and some encyclopedias, dictionaries helped a lot. Tafseers (explanation) of Bible and Quran Sharif also helped a lot in this. This book has been written since 28.09.2004 and is now completed on 30.08.2008. Today there is no difference between ancient history and religious history, only language, so pls read My book.thanks. Also available in paperback version.
