It is therefore better to analyse the concept of God in any religion by referring to its holy scriptures. Indeed, most Hindus would attest to this, by professing belief in a multitude of Gods. Some Hindus actually believe in the existence of thirty-three crore i.e. 330 million Gods. However learned Hindus who are well versed with their scriptures insist that a Hindu should believe in and worship only one God. The major difference between the Hindu and the Muslim perception of God is the common Hindus belief in the philosophy of Pantheism.
Pantheism considers everything, living and non-living to be divine and sacred.
The Hindus therefore consider the trees, the Sun, the moon, the animals and even the human beings as manifestations of God. However this belief is not corroborated by the vedic scriptures. Islam, on the contrary, exhorts man to consider himself and his surroundings as examples of divine creation rather than as divinity itself. Muslims therefore believe that everything is Gods i.e. God with an apostrophe s . In other words we believe that everything belongs to God.
