ancient religions we have any traces of, being supposed to be
that which prevailed in Persia previous to the reign of Kishtasp
(Darius Hystaspes); when it gave way to that of the Magi,
then introduced by Zardusht or Zoroaster. They believed in
one God, and in the ministry of angels, or inferior deities, as re
presented by the stars, which became in consequence high ob
jects of their adoration. They held many tenets in common with
the Muhammadan, the Magian, the Jewish, and even the Chris
tian religion, being by travellers called Christians of St. John,
because they adopted a species of baptism. Their chief pil
grimages were to Harran in Mesopotamia, to Mecca, and to the
pyramids of Egypt, which they supposed to be the tombs of Seth,
and his sons Enoch and Sabi, whom they considered as the foun
ders of their faith. This was the principal religion of the Ara
bians before Muslimism, and is one of those tolerated by the
Kur’an on paying a tribute to the prophet and his successors.
