Six Articles of Faith and The Pillars of Islam

7:39 AM







Islam helps us develop a close relationship with Allah by guiding us in what to believe in and then explaining to us how to implement these beliefs in our lives.  Muslims believe in the following six Articles of Faith: 

1. Belief in Allah (One God)
2. Belief in the Angels of Allah
3. Belief in the Books of Allah
4. Belief in the Prophets of Allah
5. Belief in the Day of Judgment
6. Belief in the Decree of Allah 


Belief is not something that can be seen.  Since we cannot see the six articles of faith, Allah taught us how to worship Him so that we can see our beliefs through our acts of worship.  Our faith and practice, together, make our religion complete.  Islamic acts of worship are called “The Pillars of Islam”.  There are Five Pillars of Islam:

1. Kalima (Declaration of Faith).  Bearing witness that there is none worthy of worship
but Allah, and MohammadSAW is His servant and His Messenger.
2. Salat.  Observance of daily prayers
3. Fasting during the Holy month of Ramadhan
4. Pilgrimage to the Holy Ka’aba
5. Paying Zakat
