This hadith explains the five pillars upon which Islam stands. These are testifying to the oneness of Allah by saying “there is no god but Allah”; believing in Prophet Muhammad as His messenger; establishing prayer; paying Zakat or charity; performing Hajj or pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime if one can afford it; and fasting during Ramadan. These five pillars are essential for Muslims and form an integral part of their faith. They help Muslims stay connected with God and remember Him throughout their lives. By following these practices, Muslims learn how to be humble before God and how to be generous towards others who may not have as much as they do. Additionally, these practices also help them become better people by teaching them patience, discipline and self-control.
