Five Pillars of Islam
"There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger." This is the basic statement of the Islamic faith: anyone who cannot recite this wholeheartedly is not a Muslim.
Salat is the obligatory Muslim prayers, performed five times each day by Muslims. It is the second Pillar of Islam. Allah ordered Muslims to pray at five set times of day:
Fajr: dawn, before sunrise
Zhuhr: midday, after the sun passes its highest
Asr: the late part of the afternoon
Maghrib: just after sunset
Isha: between sunset and midnight
Zakat is the third Pillar of Islam. Zakat is the compulsory giving of a set proportion of one's wealth to charity. It is regarded as a type of worship and of self-purification.
It's the fourth of the Five Pillars of Islam. Muslims are required to fast during the holy month of Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar.
For Muslims, the Hajj is the fifth and final pillar of Islam. It occurs in the month of Dhul Hijjah which is the twelfth month of the Islamic lunar calendar. It is the journey that every sane adult Muslim must undertake at least once in their lives if they can afford it and are physically able.
