to pray five times a day in the local masjid; once a week on Friday
for the Jumu'ah prayer service in the largest masjid in the com-
munity; during the Festival of Fastbreaking ('Idul-Fitr), which
comes at the end of Ramadan; during the Festival of Sacrifice
fldul-Adha), which comes at the end of the Pilgrimage to Mak-
kah; and during the Pilgrimage itself when Muslims from through-
out the world come together in the Sacred Masjid to worship Allah
in the spirit of peace and brotherhood. We are taught in the Holy
Qur'an, "Verily, this Brotherhood of yours is a single Brother-
hood, and I am your Lord and Cherisher: therefore serve Me [and
no other]."204
As Muslims we believe in the Oneness of Allah and the unity of
humanity, and we work together to achieve human dignity for all
people of the world. Allah is the only Truth and the only Reality
that can bring everybody together, pulling them from their fanati-
cal nationalism and racism. Al-Islam gives us a concept of human
dignity which embraces the whole world, and which brings every-
body to a plane of freedom, justice, and equality.
