The premise of your question is wrong as many would classify 'Islam' as a major religion and it is primarily found in the Middle East, North Africa and parts of Asia. If you were to ask, 'Why were many of the major denominations of Christianity born in WE,' then that would get another answer.


Why is Judaism considered a major religion even though it has less than 20 million adherents?

Answer 1Israel is God's chosen people according to the Old Testament and will always have a part in His plan. When Christ came to Earth, Christianity sprang out of Judaism and they are closely related beliefs. The Old Testament is revered by Jews and Christians and the New Testament mostly by Christians.Answer 2Judaism is only really important (in a global scheme) because of the other religions that have grown out of it and the persecution it has received on a worldwide basis. Unlike the other major religions, it does not have the numbers to be a "major religion", but its worldwide impact does give it that importance. It should be noted that Judaism and Christianity are actually quite different religions and are not "closely related".
