Hindus generally base their beliefs on the Vedas, written around 1000 BC.
The Vedas are regarded as the first written references in Hinduism. They are
divided into four: Rig Veda, Yajur Veda, Sam Veda and Atharva Veda. These
books contain legends, obscure texts, hymns, sections that describe sacrifi-
cial rituals, and chapters about spells and magic. Despite the many inconsis-
tencies, nonsense and moral perversions in them, they have become Hindus
basic scriptures.

books are full of contradictions, nonsense and moral perversion, they
have become the guiding principles of Hindus.
Almost the entire content of these scriptures, considered to be sa-
cred by Hindus, are contradictory and nonsensical, which is why it is
such a grave and surprising error on the part of the Hindus to adopt

these texts as guiding principles which are strictly adhered to. This cho-
sen, but false, religion brings them much grief in this world.
Worshipping their deities for days, even months on end, praying to their
idols in shocking rituals and all their other efforts made in this respect
will not benefit them in any way. Unless they abandon this mistake of
theirs, our Lord’s revelation will bring everything the idolaters do to
naught. (Surat al-An‘am: 88)
