#Hinduism was the first tradition to postulate One Supreme Being, and Hindus are not idol-worshippers as made out to be by the followers of #Islam. #Hindus do NOT worship different deities as separate entities but as the manifestation of THAT ONE ABSOLUTE BRAHMAN.
The manifestations are called #Maya, which manifest as different divine beings or deities, as we humans manifest as different human beings.
The #Abrahamic religions claim, ‘There is only one God (separate from His creation)’. The highest human philosophy of #Advaita goes one
step further -to the extent of declaring that BRAHMAN( INFINITE SPIRIT) is the sole & whole cause of the world - ONLY REALITY.
It doesn't hold that GOD( INFINITE )is only the efficient cause who fashions the world out of extraneous matter, which is co-eternal with Him but
propounds that INFINITE cannot be divided & if IT divides itself, it becomes mutable and die!
THE UNIVERSAL GOD OF HINDUISM IS NOT LIMITED OR FINITE AND THE LIMITED GOD IS NO GOD AT ALL. THE WORLD APPEARS FROM BRAHMAN, STAYS IN IT, AND GETS RESOLVED INTO IT. THIS DOESN'T
INVOLVE ANY EFFORT ON THE PART OF BRAHMAN.
What exists is ONE. Reducing everything into one is science and the science of #Upanishads reduces all names & forms into ONE ABSOLUTE COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS, with logical subtlety in its scriptures
Transcending the finitude of space, time & causation or BEING & BECOMING INFINITE ( GOD HIMSELF) is the science of #vedanta.This is the highest human philosophy available to modern scientific minds.
Clearly there is no reason for #Islam & #muslims to accuse #Hindus of GOING
AGAINST THE WILL OF THEIR GOD.
The Hindu view is closer to TRUTH- ABSOLUTE ONENESS & REALISING THIS ONENESS IS ABSOLUTE NON-DUAL BLISS - LIBERATION.
