What distinguished the first centuries of  Islamic history from the early history of  Christianity and Buddhism  What similarities and differences characterized their religious outlooks?

sharply from Christianity and Buddhism because its
founder was notonly a religious figure but also a political and military leader.
Moreover, from the start the
Islamic community found itself constituted as a state.
 Because of this,
Islam did not develop as clearly defined a separation between churchand state as did both Christianity and Buddhism.
