Islamic scholars consider the "five pillars of Islam" to
be the central tenets of their faith as set out in the Koran. The five pillars
are:
1. “There is no true god (deity) but God
(Allah), href="http://www.islam-guide.com/ch3-16.htm#footnote1">1 and
Muhammad is the Messenger (Prophet) of
God.”
2."Bilal, call (the people) to prayer, let us be comforted
by it." One must pray five times a day in a certain
manner.
3. Zakat or giving a certain percentage of ones
wealth to the needy is described in several places in the
Koran.
4. One must fast during
Ramadan.
5. One must perform a Hajj or pilgrimmage to Mecca
at least once.
