In religion, which of them says God is all-loving, all-knowing, all-present etc?
Please note, I'm asking for people who just strictly know this information, not people's opinion on which is true, false, your opinion etc.
I know Christanity's God has this, but which others says this in their religion too?

The view that God is "all-loving" is not Christian. Yes, God is love, but God is also holy, righteous and just. God hates sin, for example, and those who sin against Him will be called to account.
God’s love is a love that initiates; it is never a response. That is precisely what makes it unconditional. If God’s love were conditional, then we would have to do something to earn or merit it. We would have to somehow appease His wrath and cleanse ourselves of our sin before God would be able to love us. But that is not the biblical message. The biblical message—the gospel—is that God, motivated by love, moved unconditionally to save His people from their sin.
Having said that, I suspect that religions like the Bah'ai Faith believe that God is an "all-loving" and "all-forgiving deity and that there is no such thing as sin that has to be accounted for. But that is not the Christian view.
