Pilgrims perform combined and shortened Zuhr and Asr prayers 3 ARAFAT

Warning against failure to perform prayers, Al Al-sheikh said the
difference between the Muslim and the infidel is prayer.

He noted that alms plays a significant role in enhancing the pillars
of love among the members of the society, while fasting in Ramadan
has so many advantages notably it makes the person sense the needs of
the poor people.

"Hajj as the fifth pillar of Islam positively contributes to
enhancing relations among the Muslims. Your belief is the most
valuable thing you have in this world," he said.

Al Al-sheikh pointed out that the Muslims believe in all messengers
of God. "Whoever does not believe in the message of the Prophet Jesus
or in the message of the Prophet Moses is considered as an infidel,"
he said.

He noted that the belief of the Muslims is based on the Holy Quran
and Sunnah (the Prophet's teachings').

He underlined the importance of security and said it constitutes a
base for tolerance, adding that enhancing the pillars of belief can
be by keeping away from polytheism.
