Top Highlights
Aside from being monotheistic belief systems that arose in the Middle East, Christianity, Judaism and Islam have a great deal in common.
There are notable similarities in notions of sacrifice, good works, hospitality, peace, justice, pilgrimage, an afterlife and loving God with all one's heart and soul.
All three religions honor the concept of purification by fasting (to some extent), during Ramadan and Lent and on Yom Kippur.
