The Five Pillars of Islam allow a Muslim adherent to demonstrate total submission to the will of Allah. The Five Pillars of Islam are Belief (Shahada)‚ Obligatory prayers (Salat)‚ Almsgiving (Zakat)‚ Fasting (Sawm)‚ and the pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj). Total submission to Allah occurs in three ways. Shahada strives to promote dedication and total acceptance of faith. Hajj and Salat assist in submission to Allah as they are practical manifestations of faith that provide a continuous link to Allah.
