    Introduction

    Religion is the name of style in life. According to Durkheim's definition of religion, from Elementary Forms, is as follows: "A religion is a unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things, that is to say, things set apart and forbidden – beliefs and practices which unite into one single moral community called a Church, all those who adhere to them.(Durkheim & swain, 2008)

    Religion is important for every society for their spiritual survival. Religious education provides a framework to lead a life towards meaningful destination. It demands from human beings to think and see the greatness of lord in all the elements of nature that develops strong thinking of an individual. Furthermore, people having attachment to religion above the level of understanding hold a distinctive position. They show sincerity in comparison to other people and remain optimistic in their life. Religious oriented persons have passionate approach to deal with different issues of life and have capability to solve different problems of their life with the help of religion (Fredrickson,2002).

    Reward as well as punishment means not only after this life but in present life also. As according to the Islamic teachings this world is the name of ‘Mukafat e amal’ , people received return of actions as order of God. It has been observed that religious practices to a great extent based on the fear of ‘Jahanum’ and pleasure of ‘ Janat.’ People who have positive thinking believe more on the reward than punishment. They believe that God can forgive easily than humans. Expectation from God increased as much as man bent towards religion. People who have real meanings about how to please God focused not only beliefs and practices but also on the welfare of human beings. If a man becomes successful to please people of the community and fulfill all their rights than he is the man who really wants to see God happy or who work done for the willingness of God. Previous literature shows that religion is helpful to lessen the problems of people regarding money, family marriages, decision

    making etc.


    Decision making in the sense of religion is helpful to enhance the confidence and one can take any decision confidently and ready to meet any challenge of life. Educational success can be related religion in the sense of confidence of self and ready to see and discourage any type problems (Brañas-Garza et al., 2013).

    According to psychologist’s personality means way of thinking, acting and emotions. In case of characteristics constant and unique ways of thinking, emotions and practices are arranged into suitable order. Discussion about personality mean we think about the whole image of anything or person. So the permanent and consistent attitude of a person in all circumstances is considered as personality (Hjelle & Ziegler, 1992). 

    Development of personality is possible in social circle. Values and tradition affect the development of personality. Nature of personality depends on the environment in which he is living. Personalities of well fame persons are the depictions of the environment in which they were living in their childhood. That is the reason parents prefer those school for their child which has produced well known personalities that represent the environment of school life. (Venham, Murray, & Gaulin-Kremer, 1979). 

    Scholars who are interested in personality development agree that there is influence of inheritance on the personality development. Inheridity, consider one of the majors that shape the personality. According to Freud there is no role of heredity in personality development. This process of personality development completely is related to biological process. Some theorists gave importance to social and cultural aspects in the (McCrae & Terracciano, 2006)development of personality. Some consider that it is not true to give (Venham et al., 1979) importance to heredity and environment in the personality development.  Theorist believes that only 15 to 20 percent variables are related to heredity and environment in the process of personality development. 

    Family is the central feature in the personality development. Role family and its values cannot be denied in personality development. Child’s relationship in early age is considered very important in the phase of personality development. Child’s strong relationship with family especially with parents contribute to lessen the future problems. According to Freud most of the problems that a child faced in his life are due to lack of emotional control. This is because of weak relationship with his family. He also stressed upon the importance of identity that only his family can do effectively for his child (Hetherington, 1972).

    Scholars who are interested in study of personality have been greatly influence by religion. Frederick Wellborn was philosopher who shared this school of thought in the area of research. According to him researchers for the development of personality theories takes help from religion. Personality theories show that that there is influence of religion (Walborn, 2013).

    Discussion

    Abu-Raiya (2014) concluded in his research work that changes in the factors like kindness, polite behavior, positive thinking, satisfaction and humanity are responsible to a great extent in order to develop the human personality positively or negatively. These factors in current study included dimensions of personality of Christian and Hindu students that are different in their own way. Abu-Raiya debated and discussed that these elements affect beliefs and practices of students on the whole. In current research, personality is dependent variable while in Abu-raiya’s study personality traits are deemed as independent variable. 

    Religion helps to know the meanings of life and importance of others’ feelings. Religious beliefs are negatively correlated with neuroticism but have positive and significant correlation with agreeableness, openness, extraversion and conscientiousness. (Khoynezhad et al., 2012)used big five factor model while the present study used HEXACO model of personality that is an extension of big five factor model. Performance in education is linked with personality traits as it affects intelligence level of students. Strong self-belief of an individual is one of the permanent traits of students’ personality and they display it intensively through educational performance (Zhang & Ziegler, 2018). Results of current study concluded that there is a significant impact of religiosity on personality development.

    Religiosity of socially active individuals get influenced differently as compared to an introvert. People who are active in social activities had strong religious beliefs than who shows passive behavior in their life activities. (Kemp, 1999). The current study has also shown that beliefs and practices of socially active individuals (Christians students) get influenced differently as compared to those who are not that social (Hindu students).

    Personality traits like depression is different in males and females. Depression is highly observed in female community. The reason of depression is defined as the feelings of helplessness which arise when someone feels that he or she has less control over world and activities related to the life (Mogan.1986).  In current study, this issue has been reported based on the assumptions of students that male and female have different personality traits and religious beliefs. Personality traits like social development, emotional control and tolerance are differently observed in male and female personalities

    Conclusion

    The study concludes that social development, emotional control, fears of life and tolerance are the most prominent features of Christian and Hindu students’ personality.  They were not so active regarding uses of their senses and in life activities. As Christian and Hindu students were the sample of this study. Personality features in these students were different from one another. Christian students were active and confident in life activities; their attitude about others life and priorities is positive. They were social in their life activities. These students were showed honest behavior as advising others. Christian students effectively use their senses and had positive attitude towards others. These students had emotional control over their feelings. Hindu students were not social in their dealings. They had positive attitude for various situations of life. These students had emotional control and had ability to stable their emotions in different gatherings. They were also active in different life activities like Christian students. Christian students had the ability to tolerate ill behavior of other students than Hindu participants. 

    In this research two basic aspects of religiosity, beliefs and practices were discussed. Christian students’ have faith in God but they do not have belief about unseen power. They give value to doubts and suspicions about religion. They think that there are many other important things than religion in life and get upset easily when they think about life after death. Christian seek pleasure in praying as they feel it is for peace and happiness. On the other hand, they feel that these activities are a kind of hurdle in the amusement of life. Religious leaders are not so helpful for them in guiding and answering different questions regarding religion. Their experienced based practices conclude that religious activities should be part of the school activities. Purpose of life is more important than mere praying life, it is not necessary that people who have fear of God are always be kind and helpful to other people. Purpose of religion is to unite human beings who have very strong feeling of the presence of God. They are not interested in asking questions about religion and doubts regarding religion does not change their religious values. Fears of life after death is not so upsetting for them and religion is not more important than other things of life. Practically, they realized prayer is for peace and happiness especially in times of trouble. 

    Hindu students also have strong belief in God’s presence but not in unseen power. They believe that religion has the power to unite human beings. Religious beliefs can be observed in students’ personality if teacher is a role model. Hindu students do not like to ask religious questions to others. They have no fear of life after death nor do they want change in their religious values. They give more importance to other things in life than religion. Their personal practices show that religion is a piece of happiness and comfort but they do not try to live according to their religious values. Religious leaders are not helpful for them in guiding and answering different questions about religion. Hindu students said that God fearing people are not always be helpful for others. They thought that purposeful life is better than mere praying God. According to these students’ religious activities should be as part of school curriculum.

    The value of correlation (.077) shows that there was positive significant relationship between religiosity and personality development. The p-value (.000*) shows that there was significant impact of religion on personality development of non- Muslims living in Pakistan.
