Current Understanding of Islam is that Creator and creation are distinct and there is prohibition on worshiping any creation as God (The sin is called shirk in Islam ) whereas Ra's primary message is Oneness of Universe wherein we are all divine. Only Sufism ( A spiritual form of Islam ) comes close to Ra's message due to their similar understanding of oneness - its called "Wahdat al-Shuhud (Apparentism, or Unity of Witness) " .
Sufis claim their practice originated from Prophet Mohammad.
