Islam is a complete code of life
that helps and guides in every step of life. Islam is based on five pillars.
These are as follow
1-Kalima-e-Shahadah:
Translation:
“I bear witness that
(there is) no god except Allah; One is He, no partner hath He, and I bear
witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger.”
2- To offer prayer five times a day:
Salah (nimaz) is the
second pillar of Islam and occupies a superior position in the religion of peace.
Its performance is the primary duty of every Muslim after he has brought faith
in the Oneness of Allah Almighty and the Prophet Hood of His Holy Messenger, Hazrat
Muhammad (P.B.U.H). It is a most special act of Divine worship which he is
called upon to perform five times daily without fail.
