Abraham is the Godfather of Religion. God said to him that all his offspring would be blessed. From him came the twelve tribes of Israel. He is a main focal point of the three world religions, Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
Abraham is important to all three monotheistic religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—because he is considered the father of all believers in one God. He is seen as a central figure who established a covenant with God, through which his descendants are blessed, and his faith and obedience serve as examples for followers of these religions.

Abraham, or Abram as he was called before his encounter with God, was the father of Judaism, and God had promised him that his descendants would be "as numerous as the stars in the sky..., and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed". When Jesus died for sins, many Jews decided to follow His teachings and His ways. Then when we go to the Middle East and areas around that, we have Mohammad ascend into heaven, and any Jews or Christians around there surely became followers of Islam. Christianity was build off of Judaism because Christ is a descendant of David, whom is a descendant of Abraham, and Mohammad was also a descendant of Abraham. Without Abraham, none of these religions exist.

Hinduism is considered polytheistic because it acknowledges multiple deities, each representing different aspects of the divine. However, it is also seen as monotheistic because all these deities are ultimately believed to be manifestations of the one supreme reality, Brahman. This concept of a single, all-encompassing divine essence unifies the various deities and traditions within Hinduism.
Christianity and Islam are two major religions that evolved from the Hebrew religion. Christianity was founded by Jesus of Nazareth, who was a Jew and claimed to be the fulfilled Messiah promised in the Hebrew scriptures.

First of all, there is no reason you must choose a monotheistic religion, since there is nothing that makes monotheistic religions inherently superior to polytheistic religions such as Hinduism or some forms of Buddhism. You could, if you wish, broaden your research. Each of the Abrahmic religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) is monotheistic, as are Zoroastrianism, Sikhism and others. And each claims to be the true religion. The validity of each monotheistic religion, in fact of all religions, is a matter of faith, and faith alone. In spite of earnest protestations, there is no available evidence to show that one such religion is more true than any of the others. Some say that all are false. You should simply choose a religion that you feel comfortable with, but you will never be able to know whether that was the most 'true' choice.
Hinduism is a monotheistic religion even though there is many deities the deities are forms of one supreme being called Brahman
