Religion plays a central role in the lives of human beings because it is believed to provide divine disclosure of sacred knowledge.

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all have in common a belief in revelation and the idea that a Supreme Being passed a set of holy injunctions to humankind.

In Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad are considered prophets.
