The Koran's teachings are similar to those of Zoroastrianism in the belief of a judgement at the end of one's lifetime. However, they differ in their beliefs in sexual abstinence, as Zoroastrianism allowed its followers to enjoy the material goods of the world, including sexual pleasure. All three of the beliefs, of Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians believed in a single god, as well as Muslims. All three believed in a judgement day, as well as a figure that would connect to the God. Zarathustra for Zoroastrians, Jesus for Christians, Moses for Jewish people, and Mohammed for Muslims. All three put significance into having high moral standards. Muslim people had to give a percent of their income to the needy, Zoroastrians had a motto for their good deeds, and the other religions did as well.
