Could you please explain to us the pillars of Islam?
The Pillars of Islam are five:
First: The Two Testimonies (Shahadatayn): The belief that Allah alone is the Creator Lord worthy of worship, and that Muhammad is His Messenger whom Allah sent and commanded to convey the religion.
Second: Prayer (Salat): Performing the five obligatory prayers daily: Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha. It is the pillar of the religion and forbids indecency and evil.
Third: : Giving a specified amount of wealth to the poor, the needy, and other deserving recipients, purifying wealth, purifying the soul, and strengthening brotherhood among Muslims.
Fourth: Fasting : Abstaining from things that break the fast from dawn until sunset during the month of Ramadan, training the self in patience and piety. It is the month in which the Quran was revealed, and good deeds are multiplied therein.
Fifth: Hajj: Visiting the Sacred House of Allah in Mecca and performing the rituals for those who are able to do so. It is a manifestation of the unity and strength of Muslims.
