Islam is a religion of peace and has brought the light in the dark lives of the non Muslims. The last messenger of Allah, Hazrat Muhammad (SAWW) guided Muslims to live their lives according to the principles of Islam. Islam is a complete and comprehensive religion; it is a way of life. The basic five pillars of Islam are very important which regulate the whole lives of the Muslims and learning about them is very necessary for Muslims to live a good life. Therefore, eQuran Academy tries to teach its students about all the five pillars of Islam.

The perfect religion of Islam has following five pillars;

1. Kalma (Declaration of faith)
2. Namaz (Prayer)
3. Roza (Fasting)
4. Zakat (Poor tax)
5. Hajj (Pilgrimage)

Kalma (Declaration of faith)

The first pillar of Islam is Kalma that is the declaration of faith that there is no God but Allah and Hazrat Muhammad (SAWW) is the messenger of Allah. In Arabic the kalima is

lā ʾilāha ʾillā-llāhu muḥammadun rasūlu-llāh
(لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا الله مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ الله)

Without declaration of faith, a person cannot become Muslim. Kalma is basically the concept of Tauheed and Risalat. eQuran Academy teaches children the Kalma and about the concept of Tauheed and Risalat.

1. Tauheed:

Tauheed means the belief in the oneness of Allah. Unless a man believes in the unity of Allah, he cannot become Muslim. The doctrine of oneness of Allah is very beautifully explained in Surah Ikhlas as, “He: Allah is one: Allah is He on whom all depends; He begets not, nor is He begotten; and none is like Him.”

2. Risalat:

Risalat means the belief in the Prophethood and in Kalma, the Muslims declare that Mohammad (SAWW) is the messenger of Allah which is part of the Risalat. The prophet of Allah (SAWW) was sent to this world to complete the religion of Islam and was last prophet in the chain of the prophets.

Namaz (Prayer):
