What are the pillars of Islam?
1- The belief
(Imaan):
That there is no God to be worshipped
except Allaah (the one God) and that Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be
upon him) is His Messenger.
2- Performing
the prescribed prayers (Salaat):
five times a day.
3- Fasting
(Siyaam):
Once a year, from sunrise to sunset throughout the entire month of
Ramadhan.
4- Charity
(Zakaat):
Which is paid to the poor and needy once every year.
5-
Hajj: Which is the pilgrimage to Makkah once in a
lifetime if one is physically able and can afford it financially.
Pillars are part of a building. The building in this case is the perfect human
being who cares and protects the rights of all creations and fellow humans, thus
establishing a society in which truth and justice and peace is supreme.
