Religion helps in several ways

Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | The Sunday Guardian | July 31, 2016, p. 12

What is religion? The essence of religion is spirituality. Religion is in fact another name for spiritual science. Whereas, other sciences are external in nature, religion is a science which studies the internal human being.

Religion makes one human

Religion is not merely a set of rituals. Just being born in a family or being associated with some group does not make one a religious person. These are all outward or external things. These do not constitute the real essence of religion. The actual reality of religion is internal realization, which is superior to all outward things.
