Polytheism

Definition of Polytheism as it relates to Religions, Agnosticism, Islam

Polytheism under Islam: A belief in multiple deities, in contrast to the monotheistic principles of Islam. This perspective emphasizes divine plurality, where the divine is comprised of several distinct entities or aspects, rather than a single, indivisible entity. While polytheistic beliefs diverge from Islamic teachings, they remain an essential aspect of religious diversity within the broader context of world religions and agnostic viewpoints.
