description The acts of worship constitute the five pillars or cornerstones of Islam, each of which has its own spiritual and social values. One who believes in these pillars enters the fold of Islam and becomes a member of the Muslim community (the ummah).

In order to examine the significance of Hajj to Mecca in a Muslim’s social and spiritual life, this analysis on the subject will be introduced.
