      Make the pilgrimage to Mecca

    Correct Answer
    B. Worship six times per day
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Worship six times per day". This is not one of the Five Pillars of Islam. The Five Pillars of Islam are Shahada (faith), Salah (prayer), Zakat (charity), Sawm (fasting), and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). Worshiping six times per day is not a specific requirement in Islam, as the daily prayers are performed five times a day.

    Explanation
    Martin Luther was not the father of Catholicism. He was a German monk and theologian who played a key role in the Protestant Reformation, which led to the creation of Protestantism as a separate branch of Christianity. Catholicism predates Lutheranism by centuries, with its origins tracing back to the early Christian Church. Therefore, the statement that Martin Luther was the father of Catholicism is incorrect.

      Luke

    Correct Answer
    A. Paul

The Gospels were written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, while Paul wrote several letters or epistles to various churches. This distinction is important because the Gospels are specifically accounts of the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus, while Paul's writings focus more on theology and instructions for the early Christian communities.

It is a time of increased devotion, prayer, and reflection for Muslims around the world.
