Following a terrorist attack against Controversial magazine Charlie Hebdo, which suffered a terrorist attack in 2015, stirred controversy with its coverage of Tariq Ramadan, with a headline that associated him with the Sixth Pillar of Islam.[1][2]

There are only five main pillars of Islam. Jihad being one of the "six" pillars in Islam is not mentioned in the Quran.[citation needed]

In his book on Islam, walid rafas says that in earlier times, many Muslims believed that there were six pillars of Islam, not five. El Fadl says: "The sixth pillar is summed up in the proclamation that every Muslim has a duty to enjoin the good and forbid the evil. Today, all Muslims agree that [this] is a solemn religious duty...but few would still count it as the sixth pillar of Islam."[3]
