Practicing the five pillars of Islam with good will and sincerety help in providing solidarity and unity in Muslim communities.

The Islam five pillars are important in that:

  1. Testimony that no God except the one and only one God, the Creator and that prophet Muhammad is His messenger. This persuades Muslims not to obey any one in something that against God commands or against His prophet guides
  2. Praying (5 times a day). This persuades Muslims to be always remembering God the Creator and His prophet. Hence this persuades then not to do any wrong.
  3. Alms giving (or zakat). This strengthens the social relations and leads to solidification between the poor and the rich.
  4. fasting Ramadan. This persuades Muslims to be more devoted to God will and refrain themselves from disobeying him and they become more tending to help the poor.
  5. hajj. This persuades Muslims to feel that they are equal and the preference is only in the degree of their piety.
