Add other Abrahamic religions

This article needs sections on Samaritans, Druze, Mandaeans, and Bahai. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A06:C701:409A:5200:2544:B95F:7237:B9BB (talk) 12:44, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Tanakh" should be clarified

In the Religions section, the Islam subsection discusses religious texts, including the article's first instance of "Tanakh". This means the Hebrew Bible, but it's not clear that they mean the same thing to an uneducated reader.

- Make it clear that "Tanakh" is the same as "Hebrew Bible" somewhere in the article

Sorry if I'm wrong or missed something important... I really don't know how to edit articles and doubt an anon like me can edit this one, but this was confusing as a reader! 66.227.176.131 (talk) 03:15, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wording

The "respectively" in the first sentence seems pointless. 2601:647:CE80:500:7C54:5A6A:F41C:1567 (talk) 18:10, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gnosticism/Manichaeism?

Some Gnosticism (there were 100+ historical denominations, and are modern ones), earlier Manichaeism were described and in 'category:Abrahamic religions' but removed because of disagreements (such as also saying Biblical God is Gnostic demiurge, that is, Devil) yet currently says Mani's predecessors include Abraham & successors, but that followers misinterpreted; should it be re-added to category & main article, or is Manichaeism article still being worked on finding citations one way or another, or it's 50% Abrahamic, 50% antiabrahamic like among various ancient Gnosticism? It's in wider group of religions of Gnosticism, which a few nevertheless followed Biblical God, and some are 100% pagan/antiabrahamic, so I'm unsure about Gnosticism; maybe some fit; some certainly don't--dchmelik☀️🦉🐝🐍(talk|contrib) 11:49, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
