As a child I got to hear from my mother ...."pehla namaz... doosra roza... teesra haj..." (I vaguely remember anything... i think I gave the numbering wrong)

Can anyone please help me recollect? (It would be of great help if I get a brief meaning of each principle)

Like your mother might have told you in Hindi, Islam is known for its 5 pillars;

1* Roza ie. fasting during Ramzan/ Ramdan,

2* Namaz i.e. offering prayer to Allah, 5 times a day.

3* Zakat i.e. charity or giving alms to the poors,

4*Hajj i.e. pilgrimage to Mecca once in your life time if you are able.

5* Jihad i.e. inner struggle with evils of your thoughts, customs etc.

Five Pillars of Islam:

1) Shahadah- profession of faith. Muhammad is your savior and Allah is the one true God.

2) Salāt- pray to Allah when the muezzin calls from the minaret.

3) Zakāt- Giving alms to the poor. Can be given though charity or taxes.

4) Sawm - fasting during daylight hours during the Ramadan.

5) Hajj - Pilgrimage to Mekkah for those that are able bodied and well financed enough to afford it.

I believe what you are looking for are the five pillars of Islam:

1. Kalima -- the declaration of faith -- "There is no God but Allah and Muhmmad is his prophet" (it is believed that simply by making this declaration makes one a Muslim)

2. Salat -- formal prayer 5 times per day

3. Ramadan -- the month-long fast during the entire month of Ramadan

4. Zakat -- the giving of charity to the poor

5. Hajj -- to make a pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime if finances and health allow.

not shure but it is probably has something about killing people...
like the rest of the Quran.
Quran 9:5 "When the sacred forbidden months for fighting are past, fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, beleaguer them, and lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war."
Quran 5:17 "Verily they are disbelievers who say, The Messiah, son of Mary, is God.'"
