English translation

2609. Ibn 'Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Islām is based upon five: the testimony of Lā Ilāha Illallāh, and that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh, the establishment of the Ṣalāt, giving the Zakāt, fasting (the month of) Ramaḍān, and performing Hajj to the House." (Ṣaḥīḥ) There is something on this topic from Jarīr bin 'Abdullāh. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ. Similar to this has been reported through other routes from Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet ﷺ. Su'air bin Al-Khims is trustworthy according to the people of Hadīth. (Another chain with similar narration) from 'Ikrimah bin Khālid Al-Makhzūmī from Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet ﷺ. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

Commentary

The real meaning of Islam is to surrender oneself to someone and to obey him by all means. The Religion sent by and brought by His messenger i.e., Islamic Code of Life and Way of Living is named Islam because by following this a servant surrenders himself fully to Allāh, and he accepts His obedience and total submission.
