(A) The Notion of Religion:
The study of religion is challenging enterprises which place quite special demands in any discipline.

One Dictionary defined the term “Religion” as “the service and adoration of God or a God as expressed in forms of worships, in obedience to the divine commands… and the pursuit of a way of life regarded as incumbent on true believers” (Propane; Sociology; 1971-414).

Religion is commonly regarded as consisting of a person’s relation to God or to gods or spirit. Worship is probably the most basic element of religion but moral conduct, right belief and participation in religious institutions are generally also constitute an element of the religious life as practiced by believers and worshipers and as commanded by religious sages and scriptures.
