Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but Righteousness is in the one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealth, in spite of love for it, to the kinsfolk, to the orphans, and to the poor, and to the wayfarer, and to those who ask, and to set slaves free, performs As-Salat (Prayer), and gives the Zakat (Almsgiving), and who fulfill their covenant when they make it, and to be firm and patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are the people who are truly righteous and pious. [Al Qur'an 2:177]
