Brother, you can never know everything about Islam. �Knowledge is a lifelong journey.

In Islam there are steps, the first step is know iman (faith) which the first level of iman is "la ilaha illa Allah wa anna Muhammadur rasulullah". �Once you complete this step, you should say shahadah to make it official with Allah because none of us know when we will die and even if you never pray one rakaah but you said shahadah, that is better than studying for a lifetime and never saying shahadah.

My apologies.

Yes I have done wudu, I am going to just concentrate on one prayer right now that being Fajr until i understand. Thank you all for the help

Sister its good to learn about such things but dont push your self when it comes to practicing them. First concentrate on doing what is fard then the sunnah for each of the fard. Do them at a pace you are comfortable with and dont let anyone push you, once you are at ease and not really struggling to maintain the effort then move on to other prayers.

Dont worry to much about the madhhabs you pretty much have to be a lawyer to completely understand exactly why there are four, but having said that it is not beyond the understanding of a person who has the basics of Islam down and an average intelligence.

if you like pm me any questions you may have or post them on this forum and inshall i would be glad to help.
