Abstract

 Creation, According to Islam and Hinduism, is a kind of originating plurality from unity. The holy Qur’an attributes this act to the divine COMMAND and VEDANTA’s tradition (Upanishads’ tradition) considers it as a product of the MAYA power of Brahman. The concept of divine COMMAND is defined in the holy Qur’an and Shi' a and Sunni commentaries. Referring to Ismaili works, some researchers consider the Qur’anic concept of ‘’divine COMMAND’’ as equivalent to Shakta and MAYA in Hindu tradition. This research seeks to evaluate this view by comparing the two concepts of ‘’command’’ and ‘’Maya’’. It, therefore, reviews some of Upanishads and erudite works of Islamic sects including Ismailis. The research findings show that the differences between COMMAND and MAYA are so broad that we cannot consider these two concepts to be identical.
