The Hindu faith has many gods, or many aspects of god, depending on the individual. Many pagan and indigenous religions also have many different gods. The more popular ancient Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek and Roman religions (among others) had many different gods that controlled various aspects of the world.

Polytheism

Examples--Hinduism, some forms of Buddhism, ancient religions such as the Greeks and Egyptians, aboriginal and shamanic religions, Paganism.

According to the teachings of Islam Almighty God has many attributes. Some of them are:
There is no god, but ONLY ONE Almighty God. His proper noun in Arabic is Allah. He is the Sole Creator, Sustainer, Provider, Cherisher, Ruler of all the worlds he has created. He is Omnipresent, Omnipotent, All-seeing, All-Knowing. He has No Parents, No Off-Spring, No Wife, No Son, No Partner, No Associate. He is ONLY ONE of His kind, and No One else is like Him. All except Him are His creatures. He and He alone makes all decisions. No one has the authority to interfere with, influence, or change His decisions. He and He alone is worthy of worship. He and He alone can grant the prayers, supplication and requests of Humans. He and He alone can guide us to the right path. Even 1,25,000 Prophets (May peace be upon them all) and all the poise men of all ages joined together have any say against His Will. Even if all the seas and oceans become ink and all the trees and bush become pens, His attributes and blessings can't be counted and written, though as much more oceans and trees are added to the previous ones. He is the Most Merciful, Most Gracious, Most Forgiving.

A polytheist is someone who believes in many gods. They may worship multiple deities from various pantheons or traditions. This belief contrasts with monotheism, which focuses on a single god.
