The Five pillars of faith
Pillars
Five of
The Faith
Shahada/Faith
● Muslims believe in heaven and hell
● God created his angels to do his work
throughout the universe
I don’t think religious people
want to go to hell. This also
tells people you still have to do
work in the afterlife.
Salat/Prayer
● Worshipers face the Qibla,
the direction of Makkah
● Before praying Muslims
must wash their hands,
face, arms, and feet
This shows all Muslims are
clean and loyal to Islam.
Zakat/Charity
● Zakat prays for soup
kitchen, clothing, and for
the poor
● Zakat provides aid for
stranded travelers
This influences the
unselfishness in Muslim
lives.
Siyam/Fasting
● During Ramadan, Muslims
fast from the break of dawn
to the setting of the sun
● After a meal shared with
family or friends Muslims
attend special prayer
sessions
This shows self control and
loyalty to fasting.
Hajj/Pilgrimage
● They run along a passage
between 2 small hills
● The pilgrims circle the Kaaba
7 times
This could show Muslim tradition
by doing this every 12 months
(year).
