Do Islam, Christianity, And Judaism Have One Origin?
No. The original, unchanged revelations given to Abrahamic and other prophets reaching back to Adam all came from the One True God. This common origin explains their similarities in many beliefs and values.
Abraham is mentioned in the Qur’an as one of the great Prophets and was honored with the title, “Friend of God.” Abraham and his eldest son, Ishmael, were commanded by God to build a place of worship, the Ka’bah, in what is today the city of Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
The Ka’bah is a simple stone construction erected as a sanctuary for the worship of the One God. The Qur’an states that God commanded Abraham to summon all humankind to visit this place, and when pilgrims go there today they say “At your service, O Lord,” in response to Abraham’s call. The Ka’bah is the central place of worship toward which all Muslims face in prayer to God, Almighty.
