In our R.E lessons we have been looking at Islam.The people who follow Islam are called Muslims.We have been learning about Muslims fasting, where they don’t eat for a certain amount of time. Muslims believe in one god and his name is Allah.They never draw or have pictures of him or his Prophet Mohammed.They kneel on prayermats when they pray.They wash and take thier shoes off when they are about to prey.When they pray in the Mosque they face in the directoin of Mecca in Saudia Arabia. There holy book is called a qur’an. The five pillars of Islam are Belief, Prayer, Charity, Fasting, Pilgrimage.
