The five pillars of I
The I religion is lived out according to five main "pillars" which are obligatory religious practices for all adult Ms:
1) Reciting the creed (Shahada) "there is no G*d but A and Moham is his prophet".
2) P-ayer (salat)-five times each day.
3) Alms giving (zakat) - both obligatory and voluntary giving to the poor.
4) Fasting (saum) - especially during the month of Ramadan.
5) Pilgrimage (hajj) - at least once in a lifetime to Mecca know as the hajj.
Some Ms add a sixth pillar:
6) Jihad: the struggle to propagate the faith of Is throughout the world, either by force of arms or by actively seeing to propagate the faith by word and deed.
P-ay for the Rangi
