What are the pillars of Islam?

 The pillars of Islam are...

1- The belief (Imaan): That there is no God to be worshipped
except Allaah (the one God) and that Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him) is
His Messenger.



2- Performing the prescribed prayers (Salaat): five times a
day.



3- Fasting (Siyaam): Once a year, from sunrise to sunset
throughout the entire month of Ramadhan.



4- Charity (Zakaat): Which is paid to the poor and needy
once every year.



5- Hajj: Which is the pilgrimage to Makkah once in a lifetime
if one is physically able and can afford it financially.



Pillars are part of a building. The building in this case is the perfect human being who
cares and protects the rights of all creations and fellow humans, thus establishing a
society in which truth and justice and peace is supreme.

Doing Quran recitation is the religious duty of every Muslim.  In saheed Sunnah, it is encouraged to do the recitation of Quran in a melodious voice by the holy Quran reciter by making the voice more melodious and interesting. Reading quran and Making it melodious does not mean that it should be made more in singing tone but once should at least recite and read quranic Arabic in a good tone so that he/she himself feels good while listening to it and others also feel good while listening to it.
