(١٢٩)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?The Trinity in Ancient Pagan<strong>is</strong>mNot only did Chr<strong>is</strong>tians take the belief of Jesus’ divinity and God’sincarnation from the idolatrous, but they also took their belief in theTrinity.To prove that, we will review the ancient pagan nations’ h<strong>is</strong>t<strong>or</strong>y thatwas bef<strong>or</strong>e the time of Jesus (PBUH). H<strong>is</strong>t<strong>or</strong>y proves that many ofthe idolatrous believed in the Trinity bef<strong>or</strong>e Chr<strong>is</strong>tians, and what theChr<strong>is</strong>tians say about the Trinity was taken from these nations withlittle alteration in the Trinity hypostas<strong>is</strong>, by changing the names of theidolatrous Trinity.The belief of the triple god ex<strong>is</strong>ted four thousand years bef<strong>or</strong>e thebirth of Chr<strong>is</strong>t (PBUH). The Babylonians believed in it, when theydivided the gods into <strong>three</strong> groups, (the god of sky, the god of earth,and the god of sea).Then, the Trinity developed as it <strong>is</strong> now in Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity, in the tenthcentury bef<strong>or</strong>e Chr<strong>is</strong>t. The Indians believe that their Trinity cons<strong>is</strong>tsof Brahma, F<strong>is</strong>hna, and Seva, and these <strong>three</strong> are <strong>one</strong>.Menti<strong>one</strong>d in the pious Atn<strong>is</strong> prayers, “oh, <strong>three</strong> gods know that Ibelieve in <strong>one</strong> god. Tell me, which of you <strong>is</strong> the real god, to pray f<strong>or</strong>and present my vow? Then the <strong>three</strong> gods appeared and said to him:you, the w<strong>or</strong>shipper, know that there <strong>is</strong> no difference between us, the<strong>three</strong> you see <strong>is</strong> in the shape and the sameness, but there <strong>is</strong> only<strong>one</strong> divine person in the <strong>three</strong>”.Found in Indian remains, was an idol with <strong>three</strong> heads and <strong>one</strong> body,indicating the Trinity.The Trinity was known by the ancient pagans, such as the EgyptianTrinity (Ozirous, Izes, and Hoars), the Persian Trinity (Ormizd,Mitras, and Ahraman), the Scandinavian Trinity (Aowen, T<strong>or</strong>a, andFreie), and the Mexican Trinity (Tzikliboka, Ahotzlipo Shtiki, andTlakoma). The Greek philosophers, whose belief was similar to theChr<strong>is</strong>tians’, also believed in their Trinity (ex<strong>is</strong>tence, knowledge, life),and many others, which will take too long to mention. 11 - Pagan<strong>is</strong>m in Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity, Mohammad Taher Attenneer, pp 13-23, Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity, AhmadShalaby, pp 118-120, A Study on the T<strong>or</strong>ah and The Gospel, Kamel Saafan, pp 81, 228
