  13. Six Beliefs • God • Angels • Prophets • Books • Judgment • Divine Power and Determination

  14. Conclusions • Many practices are “continuous” with those of Judaism • Pilgrimage has many features of Shalosh Regalim. Ramadan comes inexhorably like the Sabbath. Prayer, alms, and “testimony” have points of contact. • As in Judaism and any other system, the basic rituals inculcate central beliefs, shape patterns of behaving to confirm them,and build a sense of belonging—identity as part of a group committed to those beliefs.

  15. The First Chapter of the Qur'an In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate! Praise belongs to God, the Lord of the Worlds. The All Merciful, the Compassionate,Master of the Day of Judgment. Thee only do we serve, to Thee alone do we pray for help. Guide us on the Straight Path. The Path of those whom Thou has graced; not of those against whom Thou art wrathful, nor of those who are astray.
