QUESTION #8235
Question 1
What is the second pillar of Islam?
Correct Answer Explanation
Salah (Prayer) is the second pillar of Islam after Shahadah (declaration of faith). Muslims are required to perform five daily prayers: Fajr (dawn), Zuhr (noon), Asr (afternoon), Maghrib (sunset), and Isha (night). Salah was made obligatory during the Mi'raj (Night Journey) and is the first thing a Muslim will be questioned about on the Day of Judgment. It is the direct link between the worshipper and Allah, performed facing the Kaaba in Makkah.
