1. The profession of faith: this includes acknowledging that there is no god but thier God (ALLAH) and that muhammad is the messenger of god.

2. The five daily prayers: Includes following a ritual of washing and perescribed movements and facing the direction to Mecca.

3. Paying zakat: Annual tax used to help the poor and others in need.

4. Fasting during the holy month of Ramadan: Eat and drink nothing from dawn to sunset. Reminds them of self discipline, dependance of the Creator and the feelings of the poor.

5. Making a pilgrimage to Mecca at least once: Only if possible.

Good luck on your test!!!!! Just study and i'm sure you'll do fine!!!!!

- The Testimony of Faith (Shahadah) - the declaration that there is none worthy of worship except Allah (Arabic:God) and that Muhammad is His last messenger.

- Ritual Prayer (Salat) - establishing of the five daily Prayers.

- Obligatory (religious) almsgiving (Zakat) - which is generally 2.5% of the total savings for a rich man working in trade or industry, and 10% or 20% of the annual produce for agriculturists. This money or produce is distributed among the poor.

- Siyam, Fasting

- The Pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj) - this is done during the month of Zul Hijjah, and is compulsory once in a lifetime for one who has the ability to do it. If the Muslim is in ill health or in debt, he or she is not required to perform Hajj.

Sister, you're able to study the Holy Quran, study it in English or a language u can understand study. it somewhat is going to likely be plenty less complicated that way. some people attempt to make Islam a stressful faith and that ifu try this and that u flow Paradise or if u try this and that and dont do this or this u flow hell. Thats is soooooo naive and shows weak point. Islam is a trouble-free faith to understand. Islam would not say if u dont do this or this u flow hell. Islam supplies u of venture, Islam supplies u time to overview and prepare, thats the sweetness and understanding of Islam, thats why maximum of individuals are changing known. i individually understand Converts to Islam. merely study Islam or do learn approximately Islamic historic previous, of direction ask right here yet no longer everybody has knowldge and a few ppl pretend to be Muslims yet arent.
