Understanding Islam's Universal Message Across Continents
As-salamu alaykum, I'm not a Muslim but exploring faiths while navigating personal loss, hoping to find some clarity. I've been reflecting on Islam's perspective on its continuity from earlier Abrahamic traditions-please correct me if I misunderstood. I read that Islam teaches humans have a natural inclination to worship one God, yet cultures like those in Asia or Hinduism, with their ancient traditions, have many deities. Why did the message of Islam not reach these regions earlier through prophets, given that people in places like Europe or Central Asia didn't know about other continents back then?
