Because human like to love. And Hinduism says to love All animals, Nature etc. Never allow to kill animals. But in islam says to war with kafirs and kill them if they not believe in islam. Do you think that if Allah is a god and he created everything like all humans, dogs etc then why Qur'an says that kill non muslim and black dogs? I don't know that God exit or not. But Hinduism tell to love everyone. Welcomee

@@piyooshj Origins of Hinduism Most scholars believe Hinduism started somewhere between 2300 B.C. and 1500 B.C. in the Indus Valley, near modern-day Pakistan. The period when the Vedas were composed became known as the “Vedic Period” and lasted from about 1500 B.C. to 500 B.C. Rituals, such as sacrifices and chanting, were common in the Vedic Period. The Epic, Puranic and Classic Periods took place between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. When Hinduism came into existence Islam was already there. Islam is first religion of this world. First man was Adam. He was a Muslim and a Prophet of Allah. We all are his descendants. Later on people have invented their own false Gods and idols. Our creator is only one Allah. Allah our Lord says O mankind, We created you from one man and one woman, and then divided you into nations and tribes so that you may recognize one another. Indeed, the most honorable among you in the sight of Allah is he who is the most pious of you. Surely, Allah is All-knowing, All-Wise. Quran (49:13) The only true religion in the sight of God is Islam. God almighty has given us only one religion and God almighty has sent Messanger to each community with common message that our creator is only one so worship only one God without any partners. It's people who have invented their own religion with their own laws.
