Back to Basics: Islam 101 ALL Muslims regardless of sect, - TopicsExpress



          

Back to Basics: Islam 101 ALL Muslims regardless of sect, universally believe in the 5 Pillars, right? So, lets investigate this further in terms of our responsibilities and their intended recipients. 1. Shahada - We declare. Recipient = Allah swt 2. Salat - We perform. Recipient = Allah swt 3. Zakat - We give. Recipient = the oppressed / needy (social responsibility) 4. Sawm - We perform. Recipient = Allah swt 5. Hajj - We perform. Recipient = Allah swt Thus, If you are not thinking about or working towards alleviating the suffering of the oppressed / needy/ vulnerable after your acts of worship, you are NOT THINKING at all. In fact, if you dont prioritise your frame of reference towards alleviating the suffering of the oppressed and needy you are also oppressing your own self.
