An Analysis of Hindu account ( various Vedas ) reveals solid evidences of faith lineage between Islam & Hinduism :
8 Areas Of Similarities between Hindu and Islam in Brahma:
1- The Meaning of Hindhu
Hinduism is not a religion, but a set of ‘pure beliefs, rites, ceremonies, customs, noble
traditions and cultures’, which have evolved over a period of time in the valley of river
Sindh. In Arabic Language, we can find one word represent the one who adopt ‘pure
beliefs, rites, ceremonies, customs, noble traditions and cultures’ called ‘Hanif’. In
Quran, ‘Hanif’ is known as the beliefs of Prophet Abraham.
2- Brahma is Abraham
That ‘Brahma’ is actually ‘Abrahim’, where initial letter ‘A’ in ‘A’brahim is moved to
the end making it Brahm’a’. This analysis is accurate when one writes the two words in
Arabic script, a language close to that spoken by Prophet Abrahim. Many historians and
researchers such as Suzanne Olsson (Suzanne Olsson Website) approved that Brahma is actually Abraham in Bible and Ibrahim in Quran.(It is according to human traditional of the past, grand prophets were extremely praised to the extend ‘same level with God’ or to relate them as families of God – Holy Quran)
3- The two sons of Brahma
The two sons of Brahma are :
1-Prophet Ismail in Alquran ( Ishmael in Bible )- Atharva in Veda
2-Prophet Ishaq in Alquran ( Isaac in Bible ) - Angira in Veda.
4- Wife of Brahma
Brahma’s wife is called ‘Saraswati’ in Veda or ‘Siti Sarah’ from Islamic historical
account.
5- The ‘Rig Veda’
The Rig Veda is known as one of Abrahim Suhuf ( revelations phamplets/ sheets ) because it contains events of the Babylonian and Egyptian kings and their wars. This coincide Islamic history of Abrahim facing Namrud ( Nebuchadnezar ) ,a king of Babylon.(ref : 1935 Dr Pran Nath-Times of India)
6- The Biggest Flood On Earth
Veda did mentioned a prophet name ‘Manuh’ during the biggest flood on earth which is
Prophet Nuh or Noah in Quranic and biblical account.
7- The Ka’bah in Veda :
Atharva Veda X, 2, Mantras 28 and 31
28. Whether it is built high, its walls are in a straight line or not, but God is seen in
every corner of it. He who knows the House of God, knows it because God is
remembered there.
31. This abode of the angels has eight circuits and nine gates. It is unconquerable, there
is eternal life in it and it is resplendent with Divine light.
Atharva Veda X, 2, Mantra 33
Brahma (Abraham) stayed in this abode which is illumined by heavenly light and
covered with Divine blessings. It is the place that gives (spiritual) life to the people and is
unconquerable.
The Kabah is not exactly cubical and its sides are not of the same length. The Holy Sanctuary (Haram) of which Ka'abah is at the center remains open day and night throughout the year and it is always filled with people praying and supplicating to Allah (the One True God). Muslims face toward it during prayer forming circle in the Haram (Holy House) and the circle extends out in this manner throughout the planet Earth. The holy sanctuary (Haram) has remained unconquerable. Abraha al-Ashram, the Abbysinian viceroy of Yemen, tried to demolish it in 570 CE with a strong army and hordes of Elephants. By Allah's Command, the 'Abaabeel' (flying creatures, birds) pelted stones at Abraha's army and decimated it, leaving them like green crops devoured by cattle. This incident is described in the Surah 105 of the Qur'an.
P N Oak writes that;
One Koranic verse is an exact translation of a stanza in the Yajurveda. This was pointed out by the great research scholar Pandit Satavlekar of Pardi in one of his articles.
[Note: Another scholar points out that the following teaching from the Koran is exactly similar to the teaching of the Kena Upanishad (1.7).
The Koran:
Kena Upanishad:
A simplified meaning of both the above verses reads:
God is one and that He is beyond man's sensory experience.
If there are two similar things in two different religions, that does not mean that one has been copied or plagiarized from other! It may mean that both had a same Creator. That's why Allah swt states in the Qur'an that;
SAY: “O PEOPLE OF THE BOOK!
COME TO COMMON TERMS AS
BETWEEN US AND YOU:
THAT WE WORSHIP NONE BUT GOD;
THAT WE ASSOCIATE NO PARTNERS WITH HIM;
THAT WE ERECT NOT, FROM AMONG OURSELVES,
LORDS AND PATRONS OTHER THAN GOD.”
IF THEN THEY TURN BACK,
SAY: “BEAR WITNESS THAT WE (AT LEAST)
ARE MUSLIMS (BOWING TO GOD’S WILL)”
(Holy Qur’an 3:64)
“PEOPLE OF THE BOOK” is the respectful title given to the Jews, Christians and Hindus* in the Holy Qur’an. The Muslim is here commanded to invite—“O People of the Book!”—O Learned people! O People who claim to be the recipients of Divine Revelation, of a Holy Scripture; let us gather together onto a common platform—“that we worship none but God”, because none but God is worthy of worship. Because He is our Lord and Cherisher, our Sustainer and Evolver, worthy of all praise, prayer and devotion.
In the abstract the Jews, Christians and Hindus* would agree to all the three propositions contained in this Qur’anic verse. In practice they fail. Apart from doctrinal lapses from the unity of the One True God, there is the question of a consecrated priesthood, as if a mere human being—Cohen, or Pope, or Priest, or Brahman,-- could claim superiority apart from his learning and the purity of his life, or could stand between man and God in some special sense. ISLAM DOES NOT RECOGNISE PRIESTHOOD!
In the view of Islam ALL Religion is ONE, for the Truth is One. IT WAS THE SAME RELIGION PREACHED BY ALL THE EARLIER PROPHETS. (Holy Qur’an 42:13). It was the Truth taught by all the Inspired Books. IF ANYONE WANTS A RELIGION OTHER THAN THAT, HE IS FALSE TO HIS OWN NATURE, AS HE IS FALSE TO GOD’S WILL AND PLAN. Such a one cannot expect guidance, for he has deliberately renounced guidance.

8- Description Of God Himself
Yajur Veda chapter 31, Rig Veda Mandal 10 sukta 129, Atharva Veda 8/11/3-6 & Saam Veda 617 say that the knowledge of four Vedas is direct from God.
According to four Vedas God is mentioned as SWAYAMBHUHU -- SWAYAM means self and BHUHU means powers which means power of God is due to His own power.
God has unlimited qualities.
Yajur Veda mantra 40/8 says ‘ God is everywhere, He has no shape’.
Upanishads says 'TAD SRISHTA TADNU PRAVISHT' means God created Universe & entered therein. All the four Vedas say about the God, in Yajur Veda chapter 32/3 "The Formless Supreme Spirit that pervades the universe can have no material representation, likeness or image." In Rig Veda Mandal 10 sukta 129 " God creates but nobody create God" and Rig Veda 5:1:81 says "Verily, great is the glory of the divine creator" and
Atharva Veda 20:58:3 says " God is verily great"
In Sanskrit Brahma means "The Creator" translated into Arabic means "Khaaliq" and Creator in English.
According to Quran (15:86) "Your Lord is the Creator, the knower" and in (6:10) " HE is the Creator of the heaven and earth." So, Worship of one God alone is mentioned in Veda for example Rigveda 8:1:1 "O friends, do not worship anybody but Him, the Divine One. Praise Him alone".
According to Quran (15:86) "Your Lord is the Creator, the knower" and in (6:10) " HE is the Creator of the heaven and earth." So, Worship of one God alone is mentioned in Veda for example Rigveda 8:1:1 "O friends, do not worship anybody but Him, the Divine One. Praise Him alone".
[Bhagavad Gita 9:18-19]: "I am the goal of life, the LORD and support of all, the inner witness, the abode of all. I am the only refuge, the ONE true friend; I am the beginning, the staying, and the end of creation; I am the womb and the eternal seed. I am heat; I give and withhold the rain. I am immortality and I am death; I am what is and what is not"
[Rigveda 8:1:1]: " O friends, do not worship ANYBODY but Him, the Divine One.
Praise Him ALONE."
[Chandogya Upanishad 6:2:1]: "He is ONE ONLY without a second."
[Brahma Sutra]: "There is only ONE God, not the second; not at all, not at all, not in the
least bit."
[Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:19]: "There is no likeness of Him."
[Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:20]: "His form is not to be seen; no one sees Him with the eye."
[Kena Upanishad]: "That which cannot be seen by the eyes, but by which the eyes see,
[Yajur Veda 32:3.]: "The Formless Supreme Spirit that pervades the universe can have no material representation, likeness or image."
[Yajurveda 40:8]: "He is bodiless and pure."
[Svetasvatara Upanishad 6:9]: "Of Him there are neither parents nor lord."
(Yajur Veda 40:9.): "They are enveloped in darkness, in other words, are steeped in ignorance and sunk in the greatest depths of misery who worship the uncreated, eternal prakrti -- the material cause of the world -- in place of the All-pervading God, but those who worship visible things born of the prakrti, such as the earth, trees, bodies (human and the like) in place of God are enveloped in still greater darkness, in other words, they are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long
time"
[Bhagavad Gita 7:20]: "Those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires surrender unto demigods and follow the particular rules and regulations of worship according to their own natures."
[Rig Veda Mandal 10 sukta 129]: "God creates but nobody create God."
[Atharva Veda 20:58:3]: "God is verily great"
In short, the knowledge of the Vedas have been stopped to be listened during the last five thousand years, that is why, the worship of only one God is not being done. During the materialistic period this traditional task has been ear marked tough by mostly saints & public under the influence of so-called saints.
For-example Tulsi says in Ramayan "DWIJ SHRUTI BECHAK" i.e., present Gurus have sold Vedas means they never study Vedas & do know nothing about Vedas. In the next saying "SHRUTI BIRODH RAT SAB NAR NARI" means man, woman & their children have taken bold steps against the Vedas. Up to the time of Mahabharta there was no temple. Thereafter, the knowledge of Vedas decreased & between two to three thousands years the temple has been made.
The books (Mahabharta & Bhagwat Geeta etc) came after the Vedas have been described and explained on the basis of sects or self made views of present so called saints, whereas the Vedas were written by ancient Rishis. After MAHABHARAT war the knowledge of Vedas did minimize and almost came to an end, and therefore, so many sects and way of worship came in existence.
Murti or ‘Idol worship’ was added by Pundits & Brahmins. Now, it is for Hindu scholar's to think, as to where they stand. So, the reason of the temples and murti is only due to the decrease and little knowledge of Vedas, for the last about three thousands years, because before this period there was no temple. Temple provision is only in the sects made by Pundits and not in the Vedas. So when there was the knowledge of Vedas, only one God was worshiped. This is how religion given in the Vedas changed or converted into Hinduism by the Pundits, Brahmins and so called saints.
Hindu Scriptures prove that Hindus were foretold about the worship of one God and were also foretold about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in their Holy Scriptures. But, they denied their Holy Scriptures and invented their own rules and regulations in the religion, and changed their religion according to their own materialistic and vain desires and made idols (images) of gods and their Avtars Ram & Karishana etc, and worshipped them as God. This is, how true religions of Vedas converted in to man-made religion (Hinduism).
With the above facts references from the Vedas & other Hindu Scriptures, it is possible that, Hindu Pundits and Brahmins might have changed the true concepts given in the Vedas into Hinduism as Christians have changed the true religion (Islam) of Jesus (PBUH) into Christianity.
The thing which is needed to do is that, Muslim scholars should take steps to preach the Hindus not only with the reference of Holy Quran but, with the fact references from their own Hindu Scriptures. According to whom worship of one God is allowed, so they should discard idol and murti worship and worship only one God according to their Scriptures. Secondly, the Kalki Avtar (Coming Prophet) which has been mentioned by name "Muhammad" & "Ahmed" in their Scriptures and all the indications about his Prophet hood mentioned in their Scriptures have been gone through and completed 1,400 years before, with the advent of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the religious law (The Quran) has been revealed on him. So, now it is the religious duty of each Hindu to accept Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as their last Avtar (Prophet), and the Quran as their last revealed Scripture and embrace ISLAM the religion of their last Avtar (Prophet) which has been chosen, perfected and authorized by his one God and become Muslim. Because according to Holy Quran:-
* "This day I have perfected your religion for you and completed my favor to you. I have approved Islam to be your religion ..." (5.3).
* "Allah has chosen for you the religion. Do not die except being Submissive (Muslim) (2.132)
* "It is HE who has been sent His Messenger with guidance the religion of truth (Islam), so that exalts it above all other religions. Allah is the sufficient witness" (48:28)
* "The only religion with Allah is Islam (submission) (3:19)
* "He who chooses a religion other than Islam, it will not be accepted from him and in the everlasting life he will be among the losers" (3:85)
