Islamic, Judaism, and Christanity your welcome^_^
The top 6 religions in the world are Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and Judaism. They originated in different parts of the world - Christianity in the Middle East, Islam in Arabia, Hinduism in India, Buddhism in Nepal/India, Sikhism in Punjab (India/Pakistan), and Judaism in the Middle East.
It is difficult to definitively rank religions in order of age, as the origins of many beliefs and practices are not well-documented. However, some of the oldest known religions include Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, and ancient Egyptian religion. Judaism, which dates back to around 2000 BCE, is also among the world's oldest monotheistic religions.
Major Religions (that still exist in some form): Hinduism - 2000 BC Judaism - 1500 BC Zoroaster - 620 BC Janism - 600 BC Taoism - 580 BC Confusious - 550 BC Buddhism - 524 BC Christianity - 30 AD Shinto - 100 AD Islam - 570 AD Sikhism - 1530 AD Baha'u'llah - 1890 AD These are all approximate dates (especially pre-Christian) and hotly disputed, bnu the chronology is pretty much right. When does a religion start? On the birth of the "holy man"? With his/her first convert? After death? First "church"? See, it can be difficult to pin a tail on such a donkey.
The main world religions from largest to smallest in terms of adherents are Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Sikhism. Christianity and Islam are the two largest religions with the most followers globally.
