Islam commands all Muslims to be united on one Straight Path and not to differ into sects.
And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur'ân), and be not divided among yourselves [Qur'an, 3:103]
And be not as those who divided and differed among themselves after the clear proofs had come to them. It is they for whom there is an awful torment. [3:105]
So by following the authentic teachings of Islam, as explained in the Qur'an and the Sunnah, you will Insha'Allaah be upon the Straight Path.
Or is it enough for me to say my prayers 5x a day and read the Qur'an?
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"Islam is built upon five things: the testimony that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, the establishment of prayer, the payment of Zakâh, the pilgrimage to the House, and the fast during the month of Ramadan." [Sahîh al-Bukhârî and Sahîh Muslim]
Also can someone tell which each prayer is and what I must do for them.
Prayer is obligatory and must be performed five times a day.These five times are dawn (
Fajr), immediately after noon (
Dhuhr), mid-afternoon (
'Asr), sunset (
Maghrib), and early night (
Isha'). Ritual cleanliness and ablution are required before prayer, as are clean clothes and location, and the removal of shoes. One may pray individually or communally, at home, outside, virtually in any clean place, as well as in a mosque, though the latter is preferred. Special is the Friday noon prayer, called Jum'ah. It too, is obligatory and is to be done in a mosque, in congregation. It is accompanied by a sermon (Khutbah), and it replaces the normal Dhuhr prayer.
