Which religion uses the Vedas as sacred scripture?

• A. Judaism
• B. Hinduism
• C. Christianity
• D. Sikhism

Answer: (B)

The Vedas are ancient scriptures that form the sacred, foundational writings of Hinduism. They are considered revealed texts (shruti) passed down through sages and serve as the liturgical and philosophical backbone for many Hindu rituals, hymns, and ideas about the nature of the universe and human duty. Because Hinduism centers on the Vedas as its primary sacred literature, they are the best fit for this question.

Judaism has its sacred scriptures in the Hebrew Bible, Christian tradition relies on the Bible (Old and New Testaments), and Sikhism centers on the Guru Granth Sahib as its central scripture. While Hindus may honor the Vedas, they are not the defining sacred texts of those other traditions.
