17 III. Unifying Principles of Islamic Faith
18 A. Qur ān Surah 43:1-4 Ha mim. By the Glorious Book (that makes things clear)! We have revealed the Qur ān in the Arabic tongue that you may grasp its meaning. It is a transcript of Our eternal book, sublime, and full of wisdom. (see also 10:37; 39:28)
19 B. Hadith Muhammad will instruct you in the Book (Qur ān) and in Wisdom (Hadith) (2:151). The Hadith as a Source of Islamic Revelation, Authority and Guidance 1. Sunna custom / example of Muhammad 2. Hadith written narrative
20 C. Five Pillars which hold up the house of Islam The Vision of the United Community
21 1. Shahadah Confession of Faith I bear witness that there is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah. Shahadah witness or testimony
22 2. Salat Ritual Prayer Allah is most great! (4x) I testify that there is no God, but Allah (2x) I testify that Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah (2x) Come to prayer (2x) Come to success in this life and Hereafter Come to success! Allah is most great (2x) There is no God but Allah.
23 Call to Prayer
24 3. Zakat - Almsgiving 1. Relief of the poor 2. Further Islamic Missions You shall never be truly righteous until you give in alms what you dearly cherish. 3:92 recite your prayers and pay the almstax (2:43, 2:83, 2:110, 2:277, 58:13)
25 4. Sawm - Fasting In the month of Ramadan the Qur an was revealed therefore whoever of you is present in that month let him fast. (2:185)
26 5. Hajj - Pilgrimage The first temple ever to be built for men was that at Mecca, a blessed place, a beacon for the nations. In it there are veritable signs and the spot where Abraham stood. Whoever enters it is safe. Pilgrimage to the House is a duty for all who can make the journey. (Surah 3:97) See also, 2:196, 5:1, 95,96; 22:27-29
