1.) My perspective of the Five Pillars (shahada, salat ,zakat ,saum , and hajj ) of Islam.
For me , it's like Christian because we pray more than five times , we know that we have only one God,we help helpless people like Muslim do. I think it's good to do their Five Pillars.In shahada it's good to hear that they no more god except to Allah.They have faith.The shahada also is uttered as part of the Muslim call to prayer.In salat they pray five times a day in Mecca.They are so religious. In zakat, like us we have charity.In hajj , it is pilgrimage . Muslim make their journey to Mecca .All illness people licit excuses. In saum or fasting . It have three fasting the partial fasting , water fasting , and full fasting . In full fasting all toxin in your body will decrease . They have Ramadan. By the way ..We should respect the five pillars of the Muslim .
2 ). How does the teachings of Buddha affect the followers of this philosophy ?
I think , They affect their philosophy in life because they think that Buddha was enlighten one so they followed the Four noble truth ,eight fold path and the Five pillars . The followers believe that teachings of Buddha ,like karma , karma of varying types can lead to rebirth as a human, an animal or even one of the Hindu gods.The belief of the followers are change when Buddha teach them.
3) Hinduism VS. Christianity :
Hinduism is " the whole complex of beliefs and institutions that have appeared from the time when their ancient scriptures ,Vedas , were composed until now .Hinduism is a search for liberation.It is devotion to or worship of the gods .Hindu themselves prefer to use the Sanskrit term sanatana dharma for their religious tradition.Christianity is a monotheistic faith . They believe in one God . They have a bible .Founded on the life and teachings of Jesus.
