In Islam, any good act done in the spirit of worship is an act of worship. Such acts as removing a stone from the road, teaching a child the alphabet, or even washing the dishes after a family meal, are acts of worship if done in the Name of Allah. More formal types of Islamic worship include: Salat, the formal five-times-per-day prayer.

Sawm, fasting from first light to sunset.

Zakat, paying a portion of one's financial holdings to the poor.

Hajj, pilgrimmage to Makkah druing the Islamic month of Dhul-Hijjah.

Dua, supplications offered during or separately from salat.

Athkar, phrases from the Holy Qur'an and ahadith recited twice daily.

Thikr, phrases from the Holy Qur'an and ahadith used in conversation, and recited after salat.

Sadaqah, doing a good deed (including donating money) in the spirit of worship.

Reading and/or studying the Holy Qur'an, ahadith, or seerah (biography.)

Dawah, teaching about Islam.

There are a number of types of worship: Required: Salat: the formal five-times a day prayer. Siyam: fasting. Hajj: the pilgrimmage. Zakat: sharing one's wealth with the poor. Sunnah (optional) Thikr: recitations of phrases in praise of Allah Sadaqah: optional charity, including both financial and other types of help. Reading, reciting, and memorizing the Holy Qur'an, the ahadith, and other collections of Islamic information. Rites of passage, such as the aqiqah (party for a new baby), the wedding, and the azza (a gathering after someone has died.) Teaching anything useful. Visiting the sick. In addition, any good act, if begun by remembering Allah and done in the spirit of worship, is an act of worship, even something as simple as removing a stone from the road. Even something as simple (and pleasurable) as marital intimacy, or answering questions on the Interet! There are a number of types of worship: Required: Salat: the formal five-times a day prayer.
