Zoroaster stated that the Lord God is Light; which had already been said by Moses. The Prophet Mani (3rd century CE) taught that light was spiritual, hence good and that darkness was material, hence evil. Again Mani preached that there is a spark of light within every human and in that lies the hope of salvation. Mazdak (6th century CE) stressed the pure nature of fire, soil and water. Also, Islam teaches that Allah is light both on this earth and in the heavens.
