Ninety-nine percent of Tunisians are Muslim. Most of them are Sunni. Shiites are the second-largest group. The Shiites split from the Sunnis in 632 when Muhammad died. Muslim

A place used for worship and a meeting place. It is also a place where scholars study Islam. Most mosques have beautiful domes, minarets and prayer halls with colourful carpets on the floor. Mosque

A distinctive architectural feature of Islamic mosques, generally a tall spire with an onion-shaped or conical crown, usually either free standing or taller than any associated support structure. Minaret

The basic belief of Islam is that there is only one God, whose name in the Arabic language is Allah, and who is the sole and sovereign ruler of the universe. Islam

An Imam the man who leads prayers in a mosque. Imam

Mecca or Makkah is the birthplace of prophet Muhammad, peace is on him. In the center of the mosque in Mecca, is the cube-shaped building called a Kaaba (Ka'bah. All Muslims face the direction of the Kaaba during ritual prayer (Salat). Every Muslim family, no matter where they live, knows what direction the Kaaba is from their house. Mecca

These essential times are: 1. After first light and before sunrise ( Fajr ) 2. Between the sun reaching its height and mid-afternoon ( Dhuhr ) 3. Between mid-afternoon and sunset ( Asr ) 4. After the sun has finished setting ( Maghrib ) 5. In the dark of the night ( Isha ) When do Muslims Pray

The Muslim scripture is the Holy Qur'an. Muslims believe it is 'the word of God'. Muslim beliefs and practices are rooted in the Qur'an. Muslims treat the Qur'an with great respect because they believe that the Qur'an is from Allah, and every word and every letter is sacred. It is usually placed on a special wooden stand to be read. Muslims regard the Qur'an as the unaltered word of God The Qur'an is a record of the exact words revealed by Allah through the Arch Angel Gabriel to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Muhammad (pbuh) memorized and wrote down the words. Qur’an

Muslims believe that there is only one God, called Allah. Allah is the name Muslims use for the supreme and unique God, who created and rules everything. The heart of faith for all Muslims is obedience to Allah's will. Allah

The prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him ), who was born in A.D. 570 at Mecca, in Saudi Arabia, is often regarded as the founder of Islam. He was the last prophet to be sent by Allah. Muslims believe that Muhammad (pbuh) is the last in a line of prophets that includes Moses, Abraham, and Isa (Jesus). Muhammad proclaimed that the Quran was the last Book of God, and that he himself was the last Prophet. Muhammad interpreted the words in his daily life. Therefore many of the things which Muhammad did and said were remembered and carefully recorded. The stories and sayings help Muslims to understand the Quran and put what it teaches into practice in their daily lives Muhammad

There were many prophets before Muhammad including: Adam, Noah, Abraham (Ibrahim), Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses (Musa), Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John the Baptist, and Jesus (Isa), peace be upon them. Prophet

The Muezzin is the chosen person at a mosque who leads the call to prayer (adhan) at Friday services and the five daily times for prayer from one of the mosque's minarets. In most modern mosques, electronic amplification aids the muezzin in his task. Muezzin

These are five duties that every Muslim is obliged to perform. The five pillars of Islam help Muslims put their faith into action. Shahadah: declaration of faith "I bear witness that there is no god, but God; I bear witness that Muhammad is the prophet of God." By reciting this, one enters Islamic faith. Salah: prayer Muslims are required to pray five times a day, washing themselves before prayer and facing in the direction of Mecca while praying. Zakat: giving a fixed proportion to charity Muslims are required to give away a percentage of their earnings to those less fortunate, regardless of their religion. Saum: fasting during the month of Ramadan Muslims fast for one lunar month each year, a period called Ramadan. During this time, Muslims reflect on their behaviour and strive to purify their thoughts. Hajj: pilgrimage to Mecca If it is financially possible, Muslims are required to travel to Mecca once in their lifetime. Five Pillars of Islam
