what the Fard Ain consists of

[GoodTaste]

What is the meaning of Fard Ain? OneLook shows (None found).

I guess it may mean "ultimate duty." Not sure because it is a religious item.

--------------------

I have been deeply perplexed by the issue of the obligation for every adult Muslim to learn the Fard Ain. I have found it almost impossible to find a source of information on what the Fard Ain consists of. I understand that it is a set of obligations upon every Muslim but my question is, where do you find out what it is?

The phrase (?) you are asking about isn't English.
