All Muslims must also practice at least five fundamental religious duties. These are known as the Pillars of religion they feel as they have to do this because its there density.
The first is reciting the creed of Islam- there is no god but Allah
The 2nd involves prayer the Muslims must recite prescribed prayers five times a day
The third religious duty is observing the month of fasting called Ramadan. Although eating is permitted at night for an entire month but they must fast during the day.
The forth pillar of Islamic duty is the giving of alms to the poor
The fifth duty is that of a pilgrimage to Mecca
I think the easiest thing to do is giving to the poor since I donated time and money to the homeless.
The hardest thing for me to do would be to fast lol I have to have something to eat or I get sick because of the meds I am on but I also think praying 5 times a day is too much
