It's because Abrahamic religions are inherently political.
Those are religions that give authoritarian dictations prescribing how to live, eat, deal with authority, form a government, have sex, raise children, and punish those who don’t comply. So those are legal codes, both personal (the Ten Commandments) and societal (halakha, Shariah). We’re talking about economics, trade, and more.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
