wa sallam, said: “Islaam is built on five [pillars]: the

testimony that there is no god worthy of worship

but Allaah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of

Allaah, establishing regular prayer, paying Zakaah,

fasting Ramadhaan and performing pilgrimage to

the sacred House of Allaah.”

agreed upon that. It is something that no Muslim

has any excuse for not knowing. Whoever denies

that it is obligatory and he is one of those who live

fails to do it out of negligence is in grave danger,

is a disbeliever. This view is narrated in one report
