The youngest of the 3 major monotheistic religions is Islam, founded almost 600 years after Christianity by the Prophet Mohommed. (Of course, there are other monotheistic religions which are even "younger" than Islam .. see below).

The "youngest" monotheistic religion is the Baha'i Faith (1844 CE). Judaism is the oldest (c. 2000 BCE), followed by Christianity (c. 30 CE) and then Islam (621 CE).

It is neither the oldest nor the youngest. For example, Christianity is older, while the Bahá'í Faith is more recent.

Islam religion is the oldest and only God religion since start of universe creation and even before. All God prophets since Adam through Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus and ending with prophet Muhammad (peace be upon them all) called for Islam in its universal sense that means submission to God; the Creator.

Which monotheistic religion is the oldest Islam Hinduism Christianity or Judaism?

Hinduism is not even close to being Monotheistic.Judaism is the oldest, followed by Christianity and then Islam.However, Muslims believe that their religion didn't begin with Mohammed, but that he was the final seal on it, and that Islam began in the time of Adam. Therefore, they could theoretically make a case in that department.Historically, however, the first order is correct.


What is the newest religion among Islam Christianity and Judaism?

From one perspective Islam is the oldest religion and from another perspective Islam is the newest religion.Explanation:Actually Hinduism is the oldest religion in the world. Now among Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, Judaism is the oldest, then there's Christianity, then Islam. The great prophet Abraham was the patriarch of these three religions. But again, it shouldn't matter how old the religion is, because if that was the case, then Hinduism would be the right religion (I'm not trying to offend anyone, if you're a Hindu, then that's fine with me.) So, Islam is the newest religion among Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; so does that mean that Islam is wrong, I don't know, you decide. It really doesn't matter to me what religion you are, I'm not God, and I can't judge you, only He can. We all have to live in this world, so stopping judging people because of their religion, and that goes for everyone, not just Muslims, Jews, and Christians, but everyone. I hope this was a good answer!
