Religion is a system of beliefs, practices, and rituals centred around questions of ultimate meaning, the supernatural, and moral values. It provides a framework for understanding the world, explaining life’s mysteries, and guiding ethical conduct. Religion often involves organised worship, symbols, and a sense of community among followers. It can play a significant role in shaping social norms, strengthening social cohesion, and offering emotional support. Different societies have developed unique religious systems, reflecting their cultural and historical contexts.
