AnswerAlmost all proups in the Mediterranean region worshipped the sun god. It has been suggested that, as religions progress from animism, the first gods and goddesses are related to the earth and fertility. At this stage, Mother Earth, sometimes known as Gaia, is particularly important. A further stage is when the sky gods become dominant. These include the stoem god, moon god and sun god.

Some scholars have suggested that Moses and Joshua were originally representations of the sun god, worshipped by the people of Judah and Israel, before they gradually became part of Hebrew tradition as mortal Patriarchs. Various passages in the Book of Exodus seem to demonstrate affinity with the sun god.

He is the same God worshiped in Christianity and Judaism as well as Islam. Accordingly, Ishmael (or Ismael) worshiped Allah as the one and only one God.
