Five Pillars of Islam

Whenever i start writing something about Islam, i feel very difficult to write about my lovely religion. Main reason about that i feel guilty about myself that beside practicing fundamentals of Islam i don't do too much for my religion.

But through articles of this category , my main purpose is to present Islam in its most simplest form to all visitors of my website...and if a single person gets saved from being punished and become inclined towards this holy truth, my whole life objective will be achieved.

Ok , let's start with five pillars of Islam. These are the pillars around whole Islam rounds about. What are these, let's have a look

1. "Tauheed".. This is first basic teaching of Islam..which says " SAY LORD IS ONLY ONE and HE IS WHO CREATED WHOLE UNIVERSE..HE IS ALONE..NO ONE CAN COMPETE WITH HIM.HE HAS NO WIFE AND NO SON. "

This teaching is not unique with Islam only. All holy religions like Christianity and Jewism teach the same faith originally...however teaching of these religions are spoiled now,..these are diverted now and includes wrong things and believes.

And as Allah said in holy QURAN " HE WILL FORGIVE everything except "SHIRK" " which is a sin which can never be forgiven by Allah ..that is making anybody companion or partner with ALLAH ( god forsaken)....

2. Belief in Angels and prophets: It is believe in holy angels and all holy prophets including prophet Adam,Christ, Moses,Suliman,Nooh, Yaqub, Ibrahim, Marium (PBUH)and Prophet Muhammad ( PBUH)and . We also have to belief that Pohphet Muhammad (PBUH)was the last prophet of GOD and nobody after him will come as prophet of God.


3. Prayer: All muslims have to pray times a day . They have to worship Allah in these prayers and remind themselves that main purpose of their arrival in this world to worship only Allah and nobody else.


3. Fasting: All muslims have to fast for 30 days in holy month of Ramadan. This is to refresh souls of muslims and to practice them with tools through which they can protect themselves for whole year against sins. So as you can observe that muslims while fasting in Ramadan try their best to keep themselves away from all kinds of sins and bad things


4. Zakat: This is annual amount of money which muslims have to transfer to poor people of their society as mandatory. Beside this amount of money , muslims can pay "sadqa" and other contributions to poor people.


5. Hajj: This means that everybody who believes in Allah and prophet Muhammad ( PBUH) has to visit Khan-e-Kaaba in Mecca ( Suadia Arabia) at least one time in his life.
