They are called pillars for a reason; they are the 'pillars' of Islam. Imagine removing a single pillar or column from a building; the whole building will collapse. Likewise as a Muslim your ABC's are the 5 pillars.

But there is a common misunderstanding that if I've done the 5 pillars - shadatayn, 5 prayers, fasting Ramadan, zakat & Hajj - then that's all. There are other important things that you have to do and abide by, such as being honest, avoid adultery, obey your parents and so on.
