According to the Islamic tradition, there are five pillars of Islam, which every Muslim should obey. While the first four do not need a lot of wealth, the fifth pillar needs to be rich, like a merchant. According to the five pillar of Islam, everyone who is able, that is, has enough money, should travel to Mecca pilgrimage, at least once in a lifetime. Mecca is the most sacred place in Islamic tradition, and this sacred journey presents Hajj, the Arabic word for pilgrimage. So a merchant respects The Five Pillars of Islam.
