You need to do more than google, salamkaratt. You need to actually know enough about the subject in order to separate selected facts from the larger truth.
Hitler was raised Catholic but left the church in his teens (his father was skeptical of religion generally). Austria's national religion at the time was Catholicism and Germany was quasi-secular (religious patronage of the government was by state, not national government), and the references to God in Mein Kampf are not theological, but cultural. His public statements at other time were to gain favor amongst German Christians. He also had positive things to saw about Islam and Buddhism. He is quoted by his advisor as admiring the Arab military qualities and lamenting the weakness of Christian principles, saying, "The Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?"
His private statements, however, were highly critical of Christianity and all world religions.
Moreover, the Nazis actively persecuted Christians and Christian churches and Muslims in Germany and the countries they occupied. The Nazis also launched campaigns to reduce the religious meanings of holidays and replace them with secular German ones.
He is probably best describe as being enamored with occultism but IMO he did not believe in the God of Abraham.
And I would never blame the majority for the deeds of a few.
