Signs of Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) was asked about the signs of Islam and he replied that it is to submit one's face to Allah, give up Shirk, establish Salah and pay Zakah.

Bahz bin Hakim narrated from his father, that his grandfather said: "I said: 'O Prophet of Allah, I did not come to you until I had sworn more than this many times" the number of fingers on his hands "that I would never come to you or follow your religion. I am a man who does not know anything except that which Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, and His Messenger teach me. I ask you by the Revelation of Allah, with what has your Lord sent your to us? He said: "With Islam'. I said: 'What are the signs of Islam?' He said: 'To say, I submit my face to Allah and give up Shirk, and to establish the Salah and to pay the Zakah"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ بَهْزَ بْنَ حَكِيمٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ مَا أَتَيْتُكَ حَتَّى حَلَفْتُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ عَدَدِهِنَّ - لأَصَابِعِ يَدَيْهِ - أَنْ لاَ آتِيَكَ وَلاَ آتِيَ دِينَكَ وَإِنِّي كُنْتُ امْرَأً لاَ أَعْقِلُ شَيْئًا إِلاَّ مَا عَلَّمَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَرَسُولُهُ وَإِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِوَحْىِ اللَّهِ بِمَا بَعَثَكَ رَبُّكَ إِلَيْنَا قَالَ ‏"‏ بِالإِسْلاَمِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ وَمَا آيَاتُ الإِسْلاَمِ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَنْ تَقُولَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَجْهِيَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَتَخَلَّيْتُ وَتُقِيمَ الصَّلاَةَ وَتُؤْتِيَ الزَّكَاةَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about the signs of being a Muslim. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was asked what are the signs of being a Muslim and he answered that it is to submit one's face to Allah, give up Shirk, establish Salah and pay Zakat. Submitting one's face to Allah means believing in Him with all your heart and soul without any doubt or hesitation. Giving up Shirk means not associating anyone else with Allah in worship or belief as He is the only One worthy of worship. Establishing Salah means performing five daily prayers at their prescribed times as commanded by Allah in order for us to stay connected with Him throughout our day-to-day lives. Paying Zakat is an obligatory charity which Muslims must pay annually on their wealth so that those who are less fortunate can benefit from it too. These four pillars are essential for any Muslim who wishes to live a life according to Islamic teachings and values.
