Religion affects the lives of its followers by...

1. sense of belonging

1.1. In document 4 It says "Each muslim must give charity and help the need."This shows that people from the same religion will work together to help one another. When youre a part of a religion youre a part of a community that share the same ideas and beleifs as you so its easy to fit in and feel like a part of something.

2. moral code

2.1. Many religions are a part of a culture or way of life and with that there are some shared values.The four Noble truthe end with " It is the noble eightfold path, that is right veiw, right intention, right speech right action, right livelihood, right effort, right concentration. " These values show how to reach the end goal of a religion, whatever that may be. Often the way to reach this goal is by being a good person and following the rules of how to act and treat others so you gain a sense of right and wrong.

3. peaceful coexistence

3.1. Religion halps many people be at peace with not only themselves but the world around them, The ten commendment give guidence on how to exist saying, " 6. YOu shall not kill. 7. You Shall not commit adultry. 8. You shall not steal. 9. You shall not produce false evidence against your neighbor. 10. You shall not covet. "Many religious people often have some similar beliefs or can bond over the fact that they simply are a part of a religion. Because of this and the moral code ( shown in the quoye) it can lead you to be more at peace with yourself and those around you. Or because of the beliefs of your religion it could cause you to simply be a mediator and keep peace.
