Using the definition of religion, it's the oldest dating back to Seth's time, Gen.4:26.
Answer:
The definition of "religion" is very fluid as is "Chrisitianity". Even the term "youngest" is difficult to approach as followers often consider their group to have ties back though time befor the founder's existence.
Assuming that Christianity refers to the sect of Judaism that split off from the main body of that faith some 2000 years ago, there are several religions that are newer.
Of the major world religions, Islam is generally considered by non-followers to have been initiated by Mohammad about 610 CE and is younger than Christianity on this basis.
Faiths such as Baha'i (1844 CE). the Rasafari Movement (1930 CE), Scientology, Pasafarianism, Wicca, Jedi and many others are all much newer than Christianity but are viewed with varying degrees of acceptance by the "established" faiths. In some jurisdictions (such as Alberta and Australia) all that is needed to start a religion (legally) is to complete the forms and pay the registration fees. Some countries such as North Korea (Juche proclaimed in December 1955 CE) have established state religions which could also be considered as newer.
Splinter groups from Christianity also exist, each of which claims to be the historic Christianity, but which have only been seen as separate since dates between 1 CE and the present.
No, it's not. Defining which religion is the oldest is very hard since people have had many religions since the dawn of time. However, between the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), Judaism is the oldest which has been around for more than 4500 years.
Zoroastrianism and vedic Hinduism are the oldest faiths with Judaism and Buddhism following on behind.
no
Islam in Arabic means "submission" to God, the one and only one God.
So, the question is about Islam in its universal meaning, then it is God mission to all His prophets since start of mankind. Accordingly, Islam is the oldest faith.
However, the very name Islam is the religion according to God revelation of Quran to prophet Mohamed (peace upon him). It started by the revelation of the first verses of Quran to prophet Mohamed in year 610 AD. So, if the question is about Islam as God revelation to prophet Mohamed, then Islam faith is the latest among other Abraham religions.
