“It is
not righteousness that you turn your faces toward East or West; but it is
righteousness to believe in Allâh and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the
Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for
your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and
for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular
charity; to fulfill the contracts which you have made; and to be firm and
patient, in pain [or suffering] and adversity, and throughout all periods of
panic. Such are the people of truth, the God-fearing.”
(Qur’ân 2: 177)
