If I give charity, it will cleanse my sins as water extinguishes fire.

If I fast in Ramadan,I will be fulfilling one of the five pillars of Islam, and I will develop taqwa and gratefulness to Allah, inshaAllah.


I should go to Hajj.
If I go to Hajj,I will be fulfilling one of the 5(five) pillars of Islam, and I will return as sinless as a new-born baby,inshaAllah.
