I am a Muslim, I believe that If you do things as the Koran which Allah give the human being, you can go to heaven. But I am always confused by some questions.As we konw, there are a lot religions in the world, besides Islam,there are Christianity,Judaism,Buddhism and so on. Every religion declare that itself is the real religion, and can make you go to heaven, and other religions are wrong or distorted,and If you don't believe in itself religion, you will be put in hell on Judgment Day. Of course, I believe Islam is the right religion, and on Judgment Day I will go to heaven. But at same time I find some people are so kind, and I they are kinder than some Muslim, they maybe Christian,Buddhist or non-religion. I always hope that those people who are kind-hearted but not Muslim can go to heaven.I always think if those kind-hearted people who are not Muslim can't go to heaven,Allah is not just.So I think all religions are different in form,but all religions have the same essence,the most important is you can get the essence of the religion,then you can go to heaven. What do you think about this?

dear confused, no religion or prophet has ever said that His religion is the only religion and others are not, for these prophets no matter from which religion are a part of the Almighty God whom we call with different names, like you say parvardegar, the christians say father, hindus say ohm and we Parsis say Dadar Ahuramazda. All these prophets come from the same Infinite Light and they are not the ones who claim other religions are wrong. It is the priests and imams who do so and create rifts between two religions. Do you honestly believe only Muslims can go to Heaven and the other kind, good people who are basically honest and loving will go to hell because he is not a muslim. No dear, dont belive it. All religions lead to the same goal, that is the Almighty, only the ways to reach them are different. Believe in your own religion, but respect the other religions too and dont be led away by what the priests and imams say. Make your own judgement. You are wise and hence this question. May God grant you peace.

My dear friend,I am very glad that you response my disussion,you make me enhance my opinion,Mohammed is a prophet,he said all religions come from Allah who is called God by Christian.But some religions which people are believing are distorted by some people,so in that meaning,all religions are right,and the religions which are distorted not real religions in some degree.So If you believe the original religion which really come from Allah,you can go to heaven.Of course,If someone who is kind-hearted and honest don't believe any religion in form,but he or she can get the essence of all the religions,he or she can go to heaven.I know you have a religion, I want to make friends with you.I want to discuss about religion questions.I am very glad to meet you. But I am sorry,what religion is Parsis? I don't find this word Parsis in the dictionary!

Lord Zoroaster is our Prophet and our religion started in Iran. When His mother was
pregnant, there was light radiating from her body, which the holy men knew a great Prophet was been born. He was the only Prophet who was born smiling in this world. The evil people tried to kill Him many times, but each time He was saved by the angels of Lord Ahuramazda. At the age of 12, he went into a cave to pray and came out at the age of 24, where He talked to our Lord Ahuramazda and He gave Lord Zoraster the holy fire which burns in our fire temples even today after 1000s of years. He started the religion called Zorastranism and our holy book is called the Zend Avasta. This was the first religion in the world. He then spread the religion all through Iran and we are called Parsis or Iranis. We believe in three principles, Good thoughts, Good words and Good deeds. We are taught to belive in our own religion totally but respect all religions. Hence you will find that we Parsis never convert anybody to our religion, for we respect the other persons religon too. We are the most kind hearted race in the world. We too pray 5 times a day facing the East. I belive the first few chapters of the ORIGINAL KORAN speaks of the Lord Zoroaster very highly, but the Imams have removed those chapters, I am not sure, I was told so by one of my Muslim friends. Remember friend, Prophet Mohammed never said only Muslims will go to heaven, it is not true. All religons teach peace and harmony. Do not be led away by people who believe if you kill and harm others for your religon, you will go to Heavens. No, we can only reach His grace if we are kind and human in our approach to others. God Bless and give you peace.

This is so wonderful to meet a Parsi online. Being a fellow Indian, I must say that India is so proud of her Parsi community…you guys are wonderful and have contributed immensely to the growth of this nation. What has been Iran’s loss has been India’s gain for sure. But one thing I don’t like is the cloistered atmosphere of your community. I know that the Parsi community is dwindling in India and you don’t support conversion or inter-religious marriage…why is that so? India needs more Parsis, you guys are such an integral part of the mosaic of this nation.

‘all religions have the same essence’ I think you have truly understood the message of your religion. Yes, all religions have the same essence and there is only one God…you can call Him by any name, depending on your language. Also, love all humanity, respect everybody and open your mind to all cultures and traditions. The earth is a beautiful place, God’s creation is wonderful and its our duty to make it more beautiful by harmonious existence and mutual respect. If you lead a pious life, love all and help the poor and needy, you are sure to go to heaven.
