2. Prayer[Namaz] is the duty of every Muslim. The prescribed prayers five times daily must be observed.
3. Keeping Fast during the month of Ramadaan from morning to dusk is a duty for all
4. The giving of charity to the need (Zakat) is a religious duty
5. If possible, he must go on a pilgrimage[Haj] to Mecca atleast once in his lifetime
