What is the point of the 5 pillars of islam?
More in detail the Pillars prescribe us to be regular in our prayers, pay a poor “tax” (a portion of your wealth is supposed to be paid to a poor person or a relief agency who will for you put it to use to help a poor person), Fast during Ramadan, (this humbles us, makes us appreciate the food we can afford more and lets us experiance what a poor person who cannot afford food feels) and perform Haji (a pilgrimage to the Mecca) at least once in our lifetime if it is possible.
