You need to know some of the major differences between Zoroastrianism and Islam so that you can get to know more details about it. These religions have both started in the Middle East. Zoroastrianism was started out by Zoroaster, who claimed that he was able to talk to God and was told of the things that will be done in the world.

This was resisted by people in the beginning, but eventually, some people started to believe. Islam is another religion. Muslims believe that there is only one God, and they call their God, Allah. They believe that in order to become good human beings, they should live their lives depending on how Allah wishes them to live.

Zoroastrianism and Islam are two types of religions that believe in the existence of only one God. The origin of the two religions can be traced back to the Middle East. Both religions are similar in their ways of winning followers in that their teachings allow them to use force in converting a non-believer. However, there are some differences between the two. Zoroastrianism is a religion that believes in the existence of only one God.

Followers of this religion refer to this God as Ahura Mazda. In their teachings, they believe there would be a war between evil and good, and goodwill always emerges victorious. On the other hand, Islam is a religion that believes in the existence of only one God called Allah.

Followers of this religion believe that there is no other God except Allah. Islam preaches that those who follow the instructions, and the precept of Allah will spend their eternity in paradise. While followers of Zoroastrianism use Avesta as their religious text, followers of Islam use the Quran.
