Question

which religion specifically believed in nonviolence and inspire those such as gandhi and martin luther king jr?
a. buddhism
b. jainism
c. hinduism

Explanation:

Jainism places absolute, core emphasis on nonviolence (ahimsa) as its foundational principle. While Gandhi drew from multiple traditions, this strict nonviolence doctrine directly inspired his satyagraha, and in turn influenced Martin Luther King Jr.'s nonviolent civil rights tactics. Buddhism and Hinduism include nonviolent concepts but do not center their faith on it as exclusively as Jainism.

Answer:

B. Jainism
