Relating to Abraham or to the three major world religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) that trace their spiritual heritage to the biblical patriarch Abraham.
From Abraham (Hebrew 'Avraham'), the patriarch in the Torah, Bible, and Quran, + '-ic' (adjective suffix). The term emerged in the 20th century to describe shared religious traditions.
The term 'Abrahamic religions' was coined to emphasize what Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have in common—they literally share the same father figure, making them spiritual siblings in a real sense.
