Why are there so many religions?
By Rabbi Allen S Maller
“Most college students have at one time or another asked, ‘If there is only one God, why are there so many religions?’ A good question that I as a Rabbi have often been asked.

“If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (God’s plan is) to test you in what He has given you: so compete in all virtues as in a race. The goal of you all is to (please) Allah who will show you on judgment day) the truth of the matters in which you dispute.”
