Sleepy Guide to the Abrahamic Faiths | Judaism, Christianity & Islam

from SleepWise: Learn Softly, Sleep Deeply · host SleepWise

Somewhere tonight a candle is lit before a Shabbat table, a church bell sounds into cold air, and a man bows his forehead toward Mecca. Three religions. One ancient beginning. Four thousand years of reaching toward something that cannot quite be named. This episode tells that story from the beginning — from Abraham leaving ancient Mesopotamia to the prayers being offered around the world right now.We move through the Hebrew Bible, the Exodus, the Temple in Jerusalem, and the survival of Judaism through exile and dispersion. We follow the life and teaching of Jesus of Nazareth, the explosive growth of the early Church, the great theological councils, and the Reformation that fractured Western Christianity. We enter sixth-century Arabia and travel with Muhammad from the Cave of Hira to Medina to Mecca, through the Five Pillars of Islam, the Islamic Golden Age, and the mystical poetry of Rumi. The episode closes by drawing together what all three traditions genuinely share — and why that sharing matters.💤 SleepWise is a calm, educational bedtime storytelling series for adults.
