The pillars that sustain the faith are rational elements to be embraced by the heart and mind and discussed openly and clearly in order to know and accept God.

These constitute the path leading to the discovery of all Creation as the orderly work of a single Master.
These also constitute the awareness of the Prophets as having been sent to us by God, in order to lead and guide us to divine Prophecy.
God is our guardian, He sees to our welfare. On the Day of Judgement he provides unfailing justice for us all.

The Pillars of Islam are five:

1. Absolute monotheism.

2. The Prophecy, as a guide for all Humanity.

3. Resurrection on the Day of Final Judgment is relevant to the behavior of the believer during his lifetime.

4. Divine Justice.

5. Governorship of the Divine Word, that is, to act as an Imam, and service as a divine guide, at the Shi‘ite School of Islam, acts as a complement to the Prophecy, in order to guarantee its careful preservation.
