The word religion is one of those words that we always use without pausing to consider
its real or actual meaning and when we talked about it all of us have idea. Some of us but not
all still were thinking what is religion? Even though they encounter the word still they
searching for its definite meaning .The most common definition of this term is a particular set
of beliefs but a religion is more than a set of beliefs.
According to the famous Philosopher Karl Marx "Religion is the opium of the Masses" which
means that religion is used as oppressors to make people feel better about the distress that
they are facing or due to poor and exploited experience. Sometimes people see the religion as
an expression of material and injustice of the economy. But what is religion? Religions are
shared transcendental beliefs that passed down from the believers; these are the adherents that
held to be actively meaningful and serious and either based on the formally documented
doctrine and/or established cultural practices. Religions often include: spiritual explanations
of the places in the world that attempts to answer the questions “why we are here”;
worshiping the deities or supernatural entities including ancestors; the conceptions of “holy”
and “sacred” activities or ideas and objects; it is also about the set of rituals, calendar events

the Universe itself, and a caste of privileged exalted professionals that have a particular
claims that are in touch by the transcendental forces. Religions have the fundamental set of
practices and beliefs that are generally agreed by a group of people. This set of beliefs and
practices concern about the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe it also involves
devotionals and ritual observances that contain a moral code that is governing the conduct of
human affairs.

or specific virtues. It is teaching us on how to act, speak or even interact w/ other people in a
right way and that is having moral in any aspect.
