PILLARS OF ISLAM

THE ISLAMIC PILLARS

The Prophet (ﷺ) would never find fault with food. If he desired it, he would eat. If he disliked it, he would leave it.

SHAHDAH

There is no God but God (Allah – i.e. there is none worthy of worship but Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

SALAH

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) stated the following: “The place of prayer (salah) in religion is like the place of the head in the body.”

ZAKAT

“And establish prayer and give zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves – you will find it with Allah.” (2:110, Qur'an)

HAJJ

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “(The performance of) ‘Umrah during Ramadan is equal to Hajj (pilgrimage).” Or said, “Equal to the performance of Hajj with me.”

FASTING

(Allah says about the fasting person), ' The fast is for Me. So I will reward (the fasting person) for it and the reward of good deeds is multiplied ten times."
