What are the accounts of the Creation in Judaism, Islam, Christianity, and Hinduism? What about the afterlife?

Judaism,
Islam, and Christianity all accept the account of creation found in the Old Testament of the
Hebrew Bible. This account, located in the book of Genesis, describes God creating the world and
its inhabitants over a period of six days and then resting on the seventh day. In contrast to
this singular account of creation, Hinduism believes in a universe that has always exists but
goes through cycles of creation and destruction.

Judaism places less emphasis
on the afterlife than Christianity. Christians believe in God judging people and sending them to
heaven or hell, depending on how they lived their lives, as does Islam. Hinduism includes
reincarnation.
