Five Pillars of Islam
A Muslim has five religious obligations, called the five pillars. They are:
(a) Shahada (Confession of Faith) : A Mus-
lim's most essential obligation is to repeat
There is no God but Allah; Mohammad is
His Prophet."
(b) Salat (Prayer): He must offer prayers
(namaaz) five times everyday and on Fri-
day afternoons in a mosque.
(c) Zakaat (Alms Giving): He must give alms
to the poor as an offering to Allah and a
religious act.
(d) Sawm or Siyam (Fasting) : Muslims must
keep fast from dawn to dusk during Ram-
adan (Ramzan), the ninth month of their
lunar year.
(e) Haj (Pilgrimage to Mecca) Once in his
lifetime, every Muslim who is financially
and physically able, must travel to Mecca.
This pilgrimage is called Haj.
