第2章： 回教柱子

回教柱子是回教被建立的基石。 有回教五根柱子。 这在hadith被提及得到Aboo `Abd ir-Rahmaan `Abdullaah， `Umar ibn AlKhattab (R)的儿子许可，说： “我听见Allaah的信使说： Islaam在五被修造了[柱子] ： 作证没有神值得崇拜除了Allaah，并且Muhammad是Allaah的信使，建立salaah (祷告)，支付zakaah (强制慈善)，做麦加朝圣(朝圣)对议院和斋戒在Ramadaan”。 [由AlBukhaari和穆斯林关连]

1 - Shahadah (信念的声明)那 没有神值得崇拜除了上帝，并且那位Muhammad (P)是他的奴隶和信使在心脏要求坚实信仰，在它。 必须由舌头也证实这信仰。 它叫 Shahadah 表示，当信徒相信它，他的信仰是，当固体，好象他目击者。 这 Shahadah 是一个基石，虽然它包含必须采取作为信仰的许多方面。 信念的这个声明(由二个证词组成象明显的)，被认为一个基石，二者之一，因为它包含作证Muhammad (P)是消息的仅传动机从上帝和他的奴隶和信使，因而完成证词上帝是一个。 或，因为这二个证词一起是原因在行为之后采纳由God。 行为不是合法和接受，除非他们完成以真诚为单独上帝，并且这叫 “ikhlaas” 并且通过跟随上帝的信使的方式。 体会这个证词精华，那那里是没有神值得崇拜除了上帝，是结果 ikhlaas (真诚)对上帝。 体会真实的精华作证Muhammad (P)是他的奴隶和信使由于跟随阿拉的信使，来。

这个壮观的证词导致许多甜结果。 它释放心脏和灵魂从被奴役到创作和从跟随除信使之外。

2 -建立祷告 手段通过指挥所有祈祷崇拜上帝对他。 One must preserve the prayers by establishing them on time and in the best manner, as taught by the Prophet.

Rewards for establishing the prayers include tranquility and happiness that are felt in the heart. Prayer strengthens and enlivens belief in God and inspires man to higher morality. Prayer also leads one to abandoning evil deeds and behavior.

3 - Paying Zakat is worshipping God by paying the amount of charity obligated on the ones who have enough money or possessions that require paying Zakat. Zakaat is a proportionately fixed contribution collected from the surplus wealth and earnings of the Muslim. It is spent on the poor and needy in particular, and the welfare and infrastructure of the society in general. The payment of zakaat purifies one’s income and wealth and helps to establish economic balance and social justice in the society. Paying the required zakat also leads to cleansing the heart from the evil of misery.

4 - Fasting in the month of Ramadhan is worshipping God by fasting during the days of this month by abstaining from eating or drinking from dawn to sunset, and curbing evil intentions and desires. It teaches love, sincerity, and devotion. It develops patience, unselfishness, social conscience, and willpower to bear hardship. Fasting trains the souls to abandon what is preferred and desired, seeking the pleasure of God.

5 - Hajj is the pilgrimage to the Kaa’ba in Makkah at least once in a lifetime, provided one has the means to undertake the journey. Hajj trains the souls to spend time and physical effort, seeking to obey God. This is why the Hajj is considered a type of jihad(struggle).

These fruits of performing the pillars of Islam, along with many others we did not mention, make the Muslim nation pure and clean. They lead the nation to preserving the religion of Truth and dealing with the creation in the best manners of justice and truthfulness. All other acts of the religion depend on how well these pillars are preserved. The Ummah (Muslim nation) can reach success as long as its members preserve the religion. This Ummah will not reach the desired success as long as the religion is not fully respected and preserved.

Whoever wants to be certain of the above mentioned facts, let him read the following Ayat(verses):

“And if the people of the towns had believed and had piety, certainly, We should have opened for them blessings from the heaven and the earth, but they belied (the Messengers). So We took them (with punishment) for what they used to earn (of evil deeds). Did the people of the towns then feel secure against the coming of Our punishment by night while they were asleep? Or, did the people of the towns then feel secure against the coming of Our punishment in the forenoon while they play? Did they then feel secure against the plot of All? None feels secure form the plot of All?except the people who are lost.” (Qur’an 7:96-99)

Let him also read the history of previous nations, which gives valuable lessons for whoever is in possession of a mind that comprehends and is rightly guided. This history is a light for those whose hearts are not blocked from the truth. All our dependence is upon God.
