Please see the Adhkar in the pictures we have used. ‘Dhikar’ is the remembrance of Allāh (God), and it illuminates the heart. One feels comfort, satisfaction, and contentment in Dhikar. ‘Tasbihaat’ are the specific words Dhikar that Muslims learn at an early age, and use in daily life without even thinking. Tasbihaat is embedded in our speech and thoughts, and a Muslim’s relationship with these words makes them unique and powerful, such that they deserve to be written in gold.

These practices are referred to as pillars because they form the foundation of Muslim life. The five pillars of Islam are Shahada, Salah, Zakat, Sawm, and Hajj. We have written the following 5 verses on this painting. Shahada أشهدُ أنْ لا إلهَ إلاَّ اللهُ وأشهدُ أنَّ محمّداً رسولُ الله “There is no deity but God; Muhammad is the messenger of God.” Fasting يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ “O believers! Fasting is prescribed for you—as it was for those before you—so perhaps you will become mindful of Allah.” Quran 2:183 Hajj إِنَّ ٱلصَّفَا وَٱلْمَرْوَةَ مِن شَعَآئِرِ ٱللَّهِ فَمَنْ حَجَّ ٱلْبَيْتَ أَوِ ٱعْتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ أَن يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا وَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَاكِرٌ عَلِيمٌ “Indeed, ˹the hills of Ṣafa and Marwah are among the symbols of Allah. So whoever performs the pilgrimage or minor pilgrimage, let them walk between the two hills. And whoever does good willingly, Allah is truly Appreciative, All-Knowing.” Quran 2:158 Zakah إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ وَأَقِيمُوا ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُوا ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّه “Establish prayer, and pay alms-tax. Whatever good you send forth for yourselves, you will certainly find its reward˺ with Allah. Surely Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.” Quran 2:110 Prayer وَٱسْتَعِينُوا بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلْخَـٰشِعِينَ “And seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, it is a burden except for the humble” Quran 2:45 The approach to ‘Illumination'
