Why is the mosquito mention in the Quran as an example?
Mosquito is mentioned explicitly in quran as an example of the tiny creatures.
quran says in chapter 2 verse 26: (meaning English Translation):
"Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is ON TOP OF it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord (Allah or God).

What is the name of the sacred book that contains the 5 pillars of Islam?
The qur'an contains the 5 pillars of Islam. It is a complete code of life. The Muslims seek guidance from it.
The first day of Ramadan is always one of the best. It's also the busiest in many families. The women run around the house cleaning and cooking a huge meal. Everyone in the morning prays, and reads Quran. All the Islamic schools have that month off along with the Eid of course. So the families dedicate their time in reading the Quran, praying to Allah, and repenting. At dusk, when everyone breaks their fast, there is a feast for many families. The rest of the days you go back to usual small eating. Btw, when you break your fast you're eating breakfast. There's no dinner or lunch.
What if you can not make the hajj during your lifetime?
Allah, the Most Merciful says, in Quran:
( ولله على الناس حج البيت من استطاع اليه سبيلا ومن كفر فان الله غني عن العالمين ......)meaning in English translation:(...Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to Allah,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, Allah stands not in need of any of His creatures)
Holy Quran,(3:97)
Accordingly, Hajj is compulsory on all mindful mature Muslims who can afford it physically, financially, and safely.
Those who can't afford it physically, financially, or safely are not sinful but they missed this great ritual worship and missed Allah rewards on performing it unless they have the sincere wish to afford it because the prophet Muhammad PBUH taught that the good sincere intention does give you the reward of the good deed that you don't do because you are really unable to do it.
However, if you can afford it physically, financially, and safely but you didn't make it, then you are sinful and you missed this great ritual worship and missed Allah rewards on performing it.

Discriminatory Treatment of Non-Muslims to Encourage Conversion
The Dhimmi, or non-Muslim under Muslim occupation was required to pay a number of taxes that were connected with his Dhimmi status. The most famous was the jizya, which was a tax that Dhimmi had to pay for Muslims for the right to not be killed where they stood for not acknowledging Mohammed's Prophecy; it was a form of humiliation. Additional taxes included the kharaj, which was a tax on non-Muslim land-holdings in the Muslim World. The kharaj was so untenable that most Dhimmi were forced to live in the cities where the tax would not be applicable. Justice was also a problem. On paper, a Christian or Jew could testify against a Muslim, but in reality, such testimony was not acceptable and the attempt to defame a Muslim would receive retribution. Christians and Jews were not allowed to build new houses of worship, restore old houses of worship, proselytize in any way (this included religious debate or dialogue), or allow wine or pigs to be shown in public.
