Answer: 1. Shahadah - The declaration of faith to worship Muhammad as the Messenger of God
2. Salah (Namaz) - Required reciting of prayers five times daily: at dawn, midday, afternoon, sunset, and nightfall
3. Zakat - Donation to charity to improve society and help the poor
4. Sawm - Required fasting from sunrise to sunset during the month of Ramadan
5. Hajj - Pilgrimage to Mecca that is only required for people who are physically and financially able
Explanation: These five religious practices represent Five Pillars of Islam. The First Pillar of Islam represents the belief in one God through His Messenger, the Prophet Muhammad. The other is the obligation of each believer to pray five times a day, where during the prayer the believer turns towards Mecca. The Third Pillar is a charity that involves giving and helping the poor as well as hospitality when a passerby finds himself in the Muslim community. This means the obligation to feed passerby and offer him a bed for overnight if necessary. The Fourth Pillar is a one-month post that means not taking food, watering and abstaining from bad thoughts throughout the day until sunset. Hajj is as such, placed in the fifth place, i.e. the Fifth Pillar is for those who are rich enough to go to pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in their lifetime.
