Essay on the Five Pillars of Islam

Other than the Hajj (Pilgrimage), research one of the Five Pillars of Islam. I don’t want
you to choose the Hajj since you already watched a long video about it.

For your research, you may use quality websites and/or your textbook. Here are some
good websites:

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb8Yk8LaUoc
 http://www.oxfordislamicstudies.com/article/opr/t125/e1859

Then write a five-paragraph essay explaining the details of what goes into the
observance of your chosen Pillar.

This essay is worth 20 points.

 Up to 15 points will be given for the accuracy and thoroughness of what you
write.
 Up to 5 points will be given for the quality of your writing (spelling, grammar,
clarity, good writing style, etc.)
