Abstract

Most religions adopt a set of rituals, the purpose of which is to create sensual and spiritual bonds, and to reassure and ward off social fear that may afflict the entire society. Man always seeks to create a reassuring soul through many practices such as kissing sacred stones or providing Torah scrolls and prayer books as everyone drinks from the same cup in the Christian Liturgy. But after the outbreak of the pandemic frighteningly, the entire world witnessed a comprehensive change in the agendas of religions. As such, religious rituals and practices no longer take their place in societies for fear of spreading the epidemic, which led to a high rate of anxiety and fear for all societies of the entire world. Hence, it was obligatory for researchers to research the growth of this phenomenon and how it had a great impact on changing all societies upside down. The present research paper consists of two sections. The first section discusses the agenda of religions and pandemic Corona, and the second discusses the pandemic in societies in crisis and ways of addressing it.
