The four Hindu Vedas are the Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, and Atharva Veda. The Rig Veda is the oldest sacred book of Hinduism. It is grouped into over 1,000 poems. It is also known as the "Rgveda". The Sama Veda contains 1,549 verses or poems. This Veda is a bunch of melodies or chants. The third Veda is the Yajur Veda. This veda can stand for or mean worshipping. This is used for rituals of worshipping. The Yajur Veda contains 1,875 verses in total. The final Veda is the Atharva Veda. It consists of chants, prayers, hymns, and charms. Some are used for protection. An indulgence is an excuse for a sin that has been committed. Martin Luther wrote the 95 Theses because he didn't believe that it was correct for sound to be guaranteed a spot in heaven after purgatory just because of a donation. Luther eventually left the church. The Hajj, which is the trip to pilgrimage to Mecca by Muslims, is encouraged that each person completes it at least once in their life. The Hajj takes place on the last month of the year. The Hajj is part of the Five Pillars of Islam, practices or rules followed by Muslims. It is typically about 5 days long. It stars on the 7th and ends on the 12th of the last month. You only participate in the Hajj if you are able to financially and physically.
