==In religion== === Islam === In [[Shia Islam|Shia]], 13 signifies the [[13 Rajab|13th day]] of the month of [[Rajab]] (the Lunar calendar), which is the birth of Imam [[Ali]]. ===Catholicism=== In Catholic devotional practice, the number thirteen is also associated with Saint [[Anthony of Padua]], since his feast day falls on June 13. A traditional devotion called the Thirteen Tuesdays of St. Anthony<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.shrineofstanthony.org/novena-to-st-anthony.htm|title=The Shrine of St. Anthony|website=shrineofstanthony.org}}</ref> involves praying to the saint every Tuesday over a period of thirteen weeks. Another devotion, St. Anthony's Chaplet, consists of thirteen decades of three beads each.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.catholicculture.org/culture/liturgicalyear/prayers/view.cfm?id=1236|title=Liturgical Year: Prayers: Chaplet of St. Anthony|website=catholicculture.org}}</ref> ===Sikhism=== According to famous [[Sakhi]] (evidence) or the story of [[Guru Nanak Dev Ji]], when he was an accountant at a town of [[Sultanpur Lodhi]], he was distributing groceries to people. When he gave groceries to the 13th person, he stopped because in [[Gurmukhi]] and Hindi the word 13 is called terah, which means yours. And Guru Nanak Dev Ji kept saying, "Yours, yours, yours..." remembering God. People reported to the emperor that Guru Nanak Dev Ji was giving out free food to the people. When treasures were checked, there was more money than before. ===Judaism=== * In Judaism, 13 signifies the age at which a boy matures and becomes a Bar Mitzvah, ''i.e.'', a full member of the Jewish faith (counts as a member of Minyan). ===Wicca=== A common tradition in the religion [[Wicca]] holds that the number of members for a [[coven]] is ideally thirteen, though this tradition is not universal.<ref>{{cite book|author=Raymond Buckland|title=Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft|publisher=[[Llewellyn Worldwide|Llewellyn]]|year=1986|location=St. Paul, MN|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fr0pse0LBK0C|pages=17β18β53|isbn=9780875420509 |access-date=2022-02-17}}</ref>
