Question 1: The Angel Gabriel asked: "Muhammad tell me about Islam."

Answer: The Prophet, sallah allahu alayhee wa sallam, answered: "Islam is:

1. To bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah (and that he was sent by Allah to teach us His religion).

2. And to establish Salat (prayer) - (that is to perform it correctly with sincerity and humility).

3. And to pay Zakat.*

4. And to observe Saum (fasting) during the month of Ramadan - (by avoiding food, drink, and sexual intercourse form dawn to dusk).

5. And to perform Hajj (to make Pilgrimage to the House of Allah - the Sacred Mosque at Makka) if he/she is able to make this journey."

(Muslim)

* A certain fixed proportion of the wealth of each and every kind of property liable to Zakat of a Muslim to be paid yearly for the benefit of the poor in the Muslim community. The payment of Zakat is obligatory as it is one of the five pillars of Islam. Zakat is the major economic means for establishing social justice and leading the Muslim society to prosperity and security. [See Sahih Al-bukhari, Vol. 2, Book of Zakat (24)].
