Journal Article 2025 01 27 Shinto and Islam are two of the world's major religions, each with its own unique characteristics and differing in many aspects. Shinto is the indigenous religion of Japan, which primarily focuses on the relationship between humans, nature, and sacred spirits. This religion places great emphasis on respecting nature and conducting ritual ceremonies at temples and sacred sites. On the other hand, Islam is a monotheistic religion based on faith in the one God and the prophethood of Prophet Muhammad. The core principles of Islam are outlined in the Quran and the traditions (Hadith) of the Prophet, with its five pillars being the declaration of faith, prayer, fasting, charity (zakat), and pilgrimage (Hajj). https://rmg.isu.ac.ir/article_77563_5da809dc20ef27e4d34100a1b5c42f8d.pdf
