Is there any similarity between Islam and Zoroastrianism?

The Quran mentions Huris several times 44:50, 52:20, 55:60, 56:20, 78:33. Who or what are they? They are 'bashful virgins', 'fair as coral and ruby', 'dark eyed youths', 'high bosomed maidens (big breasted)'.

Arent they the same Paris in the Zoroastrian holy book Avesta? Pari = Fairy / Bird (Par=to fly)

Where are Huris? They are in Faradaws, what is Faradaws? In Quran Faradaws, is described as an eternal spring and garden with which the trees have continuous blossoms and everything is joyful. There is no corruption in this world. The minerals are valuable and crystallized. In Faradaws the faithful recline at ease, drinking and enjoying the embraces of their celestial spouses. In this garden, there is no time and its inhabitants are all young.

Isn't it the same Paridaeza in Avesta? Paridaeza (Garden of Paris) = Paradise

In Quran there is a bridge which passes over Hell to Paradise, it is called Sirat, the Bridge of Sirat is narrower than a spider's thread and sharper than a sword. Only the good pass swiftly over it, while the wicked fall down to the mid-Hell it spans.

And in Avesta it is: Chinvat = Chain / the connecting link

Din -> Daena (Religion), Jahannam -> Gahnam (Hell), Barzakh -> Bardax (Isthmus), Jen -> Jina (Demon), Rab -> Rahba (God/the way), Shara -> Shah Rah (Religion/King way), Raheb -> Rah Ban (Monk/Follower of the way), Jaziya -> Gazyat (Tribute), Harut -> Hurvatat (Name of an angle), Marut -> Ameretat [Immortal] (Name of an angle), ...

Anujkhamar, Do you know the famous Indian writer Ahmed Rushdie? he has written a book about the illiterate Mohammad the prophet's scribe, Salman Farsi (Salman the Persian), entitled "The Satanic Verses".

Ahmed Rushdie

One night the Persian scribe had a dream in which he was hovering above the figure of Mohammad the Prophet's cave on Mount Cone....[It] struck him that his point of view had been that of the arch-angel, and at that moment the memory of the incident of the Satanic verses came back to him as vividly as if the thing had happened the previous day. "Maybe I hadn't dreamed of myself as Gibreel," Salman recounted. "Maybe I was Shaitan [Satan]." The realization of this possibility gave him his diabolic idea. After that, when he sat at the Prophet's feet, writing down rules rules rules, he began, surreptitiously, to change things.
"Little things at first. If Mohammad recited a verse in which God was described as all-hearing, all-knowing, I would write, all-knowing, all-wise. Here's the point: Mohammad did not notice the alterations. So there I was, actually writing the book, polluting the word of God with my own profane language. But, good heavens, if my poor words could not be distinguished from the Revelation by God's own messenger, then what did that mean? What did that say about the quality of the divine poetry? Look, I swear, I was shaken to my soul....I was writing the Revelation and nobody was noticing, and I didn't have the courage to own up. I was scared silly, I can tell you. Also: I was sadder than I have ever been.

Ayatollah Khomeini pronounced a death fatwa on Rushdie because he accused Muslims and Persians!!!

Prophet Muhammad says "If knowledge were suspended from ath-Thurayya (the Pleiades, very distant stars), Persians would reach it.", he puts his hand on Salman and says: "If faith were also at ath-Thurayya, even then some men from these people (Persians) would attain it."
