I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, say:
0:16
"Islam has been built upon five [pillars]: testifying that there is no god but Allah
0:22
and that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger,
0:25
establishing prayer, paying zakat,
0:29
performing the pilgrimage to the House, and fasting Ramadan."
0:33

0:43
without which a Muslim's faith cannot be sound.

0:56

thus, whenever a Muslim safeguards them,

their faith is strengthened and their religion made upright.
